I'd start with you first!
I've had a hard spot in my black heart for you ever since you deleted
my article on the "Varying Shapes of Pikachu's Ears from 1989 to 1993
and Its Correlation to the Japanese Stock Market".
On a brighter note, I'm happy to report that I have *once again* made
the news with my apparent wickedness.

Evidently my evil plans are finally gaining the international
recognition they so richly deserve.

<sob>
You would delete all these articles I've created that no-one else has
edited? :-(

Only if I can write a corollary, "Any article 90

a single editor should be deleted". That would
be a ground-level bar
on "notability". And also an interesting exercise in cobweb control.

OK the other side of the argument is
"Wikipedia is not paper". That
is, presumably, that we have a virtually unlimited amount of space in
which to describe whatever we want.
Indeed. Our size limitations are not physical, but logical. We're no
longer
limited by the number of paper pages one can bind together, nor by the
number of bound volumes one can distribute, but rather by more
abstract
concepts of readability, usability, maintainability,
and so on.
I've been meaning for a while, now, to write a project-space essay
encouraging a shift from "notability" to "maintainability" as a
primary
inclusion guideline. Lack of suitable sourcing makes
maintenance
difficult,
because it's that much harder for us to be sure of accuracy and NPOV.
If
nothing else, the two ideas might complement each
other well.
