It could be something for us to take into account, no? If the deletion of an
article on grounds of notability draws widespread and/or mainstream media
attention, it seems worth taking a second look. There's still questions of
maintainability (if all we can reliably source about a person is "media got
pissed off when Wikipedia deleted their article," BLP is still a pretty dire
concern, say).
Just a quick thought.
