Sadly adding new topics becomes not a drive to add them, but more time
spent trying to keep them, then it takes to actually enter and write
them. And, again, AfD has gotten weird, with editors creating
accounts simply for AfD, editing articls to make them appear worse
than they are, then nominating them, nominating [[Rock climbing]] for
deletion. Inappropriate deletion creates time, it diverts people's
energies from what interests them, what brought them to Wikipedia in
the first place, and forces them to "save" articles that should be in
Wikipedia.
