The problem with deletion is the difficulty of keeping them when they're
restarted, due to recreation worries and folks quick on the trigger. 
Truly, the best case scenario (and one I may start doing myself in the
meantime) is to make it a point, when finishing discussions on such
articles, to stub them to something readable and manageable.  That way,
the information is there to be expanded upon, and it doesn't look like a
mess.
