You'll be
surprised that we're not bad people.
I don't think you're bad people. I believe you earnestly want to
improve Wikipedia. I just believe your reasoning is flawed.
In response to another comment, the terminology
meaning is changing. We're
using the term "notability" to TRANSCEND deletionism, to the point where the
WP:FICT rewirte actually DISCOURAGES deletion. There are many other solutions
to keep people happy. Once again, I recommend people read the rewrite
([[User:Deckiller/Notability (fiction)]]).
It's troubling that we're introducing *yet more jargon* in a
*guideline subpage* with the "out of universe" and "in universe"
language.
