Assumption of fact not in evidence. AFD is not working reasonably well.
Deletion of pages is one thing; the current culture of AFD is utterly
poisonous to the community and has an appalling tendency to assumption
of bad faith, *especially* when anyone dares question how it currently
works. (wikien-l is apparently regarded as an enemy of AFD now.
Goodness!) I believe there's an arbitration case on at the moment
concerning precisely this atmosphere of bad faith perpetuated on AFD.
