Where did nonverifiability come into the discussion?
More than anything else people learn how to write Wikipedia by reading
Wikipedia... We now are seeing people write fair use criteria for
clearly free images because that's the examples they see. We must
lead by example. While we can't find every problem we can not survive
if we adopt a policy of ignoring problems we've found simply because a
single case won't kill us.
"We cannot survive"? Is someone predicting the imminent death of Wikipedia?
What problems are being ignored?
This is a distinct issue from inclusion vs deletion.
Frankly, all mentions of deletion vs inclusion these days just become
an excuse for some of our contributors to express their hate for other
contributors. All the particapants in these arguments are managing to
accomplish is the distruction of their respect from Wikipedians who
are not members of their clique. This factionalism serves no one.
Who is expressing hate for anyone?

That's not a valid argument. If I write a fine, non-bias article on
myself,
it wouldn't hurt NO ONE, either and it would
be a real effort from me,
the contributor, right?
