Examine Tony's statement earlier in the thread: "I agree 100% If I can't convince anybody that something belongs in Wikipedia, it doesn't belong in Wikipedia." He doesnt say "convince everybody" Read literally, if any unbiased editor will support something, it should stay in, just as we don't ban a user if any one administrator is willing to unblock him.
it looks literally like the word "if", followed by the negation of "I can convince anybody" (which by itself boasts either that "I am able to convince [at least one person]" or that "I am able to convince [any person]"), but I could be off my meds...
