It needs to be clear up and down the line that

The other solution is to stop publishing
biographies of living
persons, or at least to offer subjects deletion on request.
By hosting living bios, and by inviting anyone in the world to edit
them, we're encouraging bad editing in a quantity we have no hope of
controlling.
I know, let's just shut Wikipedia down!
That would TOTALLY solve all our problems.
I hope that proposal was an early April Fool's.
