Generally, well referenced articles don't get deleted at AfD. So, it isn't like we're losing our best content here. The WQA on David is a bit ridiculous, though, and the criticism from an admin that "you've been an editor since 2004, you should know better!" doesn't seem calculated to actually do any good. Etiquette police... When was the last MfD for WP:WQA?

If everyone of the 10,000 or so active editors commented on one afd a week on a topic they were not personally involved in (in addition of course to whatever hey were) we'd have about 10 neutral comments on each proposal, which would give a much clearer view of true consensus.

I guess that really is the only way, sadly enough, ha. All our

Maybe
this can be the start of a big change in Notability! :D
And remember: it appears most AFD nominators are quite unable to tell disagreement from a personal attack. See my talk page. So always include "Not to at all question the nominator's sincerity or good faith, but ..." when someone's done something so stupid you can hardly believe it.
