We have always placed the burden of proof-of-notability on the

AfD for notability that I've seen. I doubt it's going to change. I

not create that, it's just the way it is.

I disagree. To delete requires a consensus to delete. That is, a consensus of people believe the article has no place on wikipedia.>>
----------------- You can't disagree, because I never said what you are disagreeing to. Read what I said more clearly and you will see that I'm not speaking about a consensus, nor a lack of consensus. I'm not talking about deletion, nor keeping. I'm speaking of *who* has the burden of proof to show "notability", or the lack of notability. The author? Or everyone else? We've always recognized that it's the contributing author who has that burden-of-proof.
