[WikiEN-l] Rampant Deletionism

[Rick]

Nonsense and nonsense.
 
"Takeover"?  If you have valid arguments against the deletion, then please present them.  But to just avoid the issue and make ad hominem attacks is not productive.  Please go to VfD and detail, point by point, on each article listed, why they should not be deleted, and if your arguments are other than, "We shouldn't delete anything", then your arguments will be taken into account.  But those of us who DO frequent VfD, and feel it's useful, do not delete things just for the sake of deletion.  There are too many articles on the Wikipedia that need to be deleted, unless someone (perhaps you?) wants to take the time to make all of the useless articles useful by writing meaningful content.
 
As for the one vote means don't delete, that's more than ridiculous, that's the dictatorship of the minority.  And there were, and still are, several users who create accounts solely for the purpose of voting no on any and all items listed on VfD.

So is the obvious takeover of the VfD page by a horde of deletionists.
Once upon a time one vote against deletion was enough to stop deletion.
And that is all it should take.
