Don't confuse disagreement with attack. I saw no attack. However, I'll add my 
support: The headers are needed to inform editors and readers of the article 
that it may be deleted soon. Not having such a header and just deleting the 
article is a denial of due process to the editors and readers of the article. 
Please continue to add this header as you see fit.

Stubs listed in the Selected Articles section on the Main Page are often 
replaced by better examples of our content. That is the whole point of the 
Selected Articles section! There also has to be some criteria to base listing 
on. For the Anniversaries section much of that is dictated on the relative 
completeness of the article. Other things to consider are the relative 
importance of the event. More on Talk:Main Page, Talk:Selected Articles on 
the Main Page and my user talk page. Once again you are spamming your 
complaints in multiple places which requires multiple replys.
