I have just added the following text to my userpage.
==Expertise and deletion==
If you can verify for me that you are a subject expert in a subject considered notable enough to include on Wikiedia, I will, on your say- so, close any deletion debate as "keep" within your field of expertise, and will undelete any articles within your field that you say are notable.
It's a small step, but it's what I can do.

Looks like the doll-collector's wiki is saying "bugger Wikipedia" and picking a CC license specifically to maintain incompatibility - they've been put off the idea of Wikipedia *that badly*.
So that's two forks now. Yay!
The thing is, this is one I just happened to know about. How many others have happened that we don't know about? Just how bad is our image out there after the webcomics debacle?
(And I understand a Wired News reporter is sniffing around the webcomics debacle. Fantastic. Perhaps if it becomes a *public* embarrassment something might actually get done about the AFD problem.)
