Will, if your idea of optimal encyclopedic content shifts depends on 
whether somebody is being mean to you or your friends, then your 
definition is based on your point of view. Ergo, your proposal violates 
NPOV.

If you want to keep NPOV, you could try plumping for the removal of 
links to all mean people. Or better, all people perceived as mean by 
someone.

That would have a bonus: there would be a lot fewer articles to try to 
keep up.
