You're talking about the unreferenced, un-useful and embarrassing
information that was aggregated in to it.
No I'm not. Maybe unreferenced in many cases, but not unreferenceable -
merely works in progress.
Also, "embarrassing and unuseful" _to whom_? Can I also nominate
articles that I, myself, consider unuseful to be deleted?
Those of you who keep railing
about the "evil trend of deletionism" convienently forget that much of the
deleted articles are in direct violation of policies that have nothing to do
with notability.
If they can be deleted for reasons other than notability, why do you
need notability to delete them?
