The purpose of Wikipedia is not to make OTRS
happy, any more than it
is to make Articles For Deletion happy.
Every article on Wikipedia has a maintenance cost and a benefit to the
project as a whole. It's reasonable for us to choose not to keep
articles whose maintenance cost is greater than the benefit they
provide.
Everyone is free to not contribute to the maintenance of some section of WP.
One lone editor willing to babysit a thousand articles nobody else
cares about is sufficient maintenance committment.
What we don't have is any way to currently know if there is someone
who cares about an article and is paying attention to it. (Feature
request? Beyond watchlist, add a new "Maintenance Watchlist" and make
that visible from the article side or some such?)
