Why would that be considered an abuse? That's like saying that having
your family vote for you in a political race is unethical or abusive.
And to Fred, yes I believe the article has factual basis because I've
been involved in the research. Rice is and has been in Tibet for a
long time. This was a very very quirky story that has reached an
almost legendary status in Tibet. I'm going to work in getting
pictures of the Yopu statue and form a separate site about the on
going research.

think I was some sort of vandal. True there is a similar style in
several of the keep votes. This is because I phoned several friends
and colleagues to support this article. Some didn't take it as
seriously as others.
To point something out, calling friends and coworkers to blindly vote
"Keep" on your article could be construed as an abuse of the VfD
process. Of course, anon votes are rarely counted, so it's not that
much of a concern.
