It also works the other way around. Bios can be used for irrelevant subject discussions, but also an article on a perfectly notable company can be devoted to long bios of minor executives who would never be considered notable.

AfD works only in the most extreme cases. We really do need an equivalent process for content, but I would certainly not suggest introducing additional bureaucracy now. The solution might be to regard introducing irrelevant content as serious vandalism--interfering with the proper functioning of the encyclopedia--as also would be keeping it after reasonable objection. At present, it's removing content which is more likely to be seen as vandalism. DGG

This can be something of a problem: sourced and maybe even true - but so unbalanced, which NPOV doesn't allow, as to be misleading.
