In Slim's defense (imagine that, coming from me), what she appears to 
have actually been recommending was to remove the article *and* the 
merged content and rewrite any relevant text from scratch. Her full 
statement was actually, "Any material we want to merge can be researched 
and written from scratch if need be. This is no time to worry about the 
GFDL.".
