Firstly, may i speak for the great unwashed, by saying that there have been far too many emails on this list from far too few people in the last few days.
This is perfectly normal for debates. A handful of people go back and forth repeatedly, often for long periods of time. An unfortunate side-effect is that other day-to-day issues end up getting brushed aside. If you have some magic solution that doesn't stifle debate, I'd suggest writing it up and posting it somewhere, 'cause you'll quickly become a legend.
Thirdly, I would like to provide a hopefully reasonably NPOV summary of the positions so far expressed re: WP:VfD "Your a wanker" "No, your a wanker, and so is your dead cat" These havent been very helpful.
What has occurred on this list recently was a heated debate that got a little out of hand at times but was nonetheless quite important and useful. What definitely isn't helpful are your extremely rude characterizations.
