No, I mean just turn it off, not Cunc's plan. See Tony Sidaway's email
for the numbers: AFD is not the last barrier against the downfall of
Wikipedia, it's now just somewhere people try to win arguments and salt
the earth. It would result in only a few more articles staying around
and a lot less querulousness and bad faith to newcomers.
