There is very good reason why we should have articles--good objective clear ones--on diploma mills, once they have actually started in business and issuing degrees. Whatever maintenance they take is well worth it. There are a number of people always glad to give a 3rd opinion at any "university" articles where there is trouble in keeping to a NPOV.

I also thought of something while waiting for your response. If maintenance is the problem, wouldn't protection be better than deletion? Instead of deleting 80% of articles on "universities" to reduce the maintenance load, why not protect them on a rotating schedule where 20% are unprotected each day during a five day period?
Because articles are created with maintenance problems
I for one don't have a problem with deleting articles which have always sucked and can't be trivially fixed.
and restricting editing on the scale is not acceptable.
But deleting articles on this scale is acceptable? Doesn't article deletion restrict editing?
