Umm...the G F D L is so that everyone can see and edit it, regardless if one person likes it or not. If *you* don't like it, just ignore it.

I think even many of the "keep it" supporters are willing to admit that BJAODN's compliance with the GFDL could be better. I'm one of them. However, the point that's being raised over and over that you appear to be ignoring is that the GFDL compliance of BJAODN can be _fixed_, improved to arbitrarily good standards, and that there are editors who are ready and willing to put in the time to do that.
Sure, you personally don't see any worth in the article and don't want to waste any time on it. That's fine, you don't have to. The problem arises when you decide to project that value judgment onto everyone else and force them not to "waste their time" on it either. Please stop doing that. Editors are all volunteers, they'll spend their time as they see fit and aren't going to magically change their interests if they're blocked from pursuing them.
