I disagree. To delete requires a consensus to delete. That is, a
consensus of people believe the article has no place on wikipedia.>>
-----------------
You can't disagree, because I never said what you are disagreeing to.
Read what I said more clearly and you will see that I'm not speaking about
a consensus, nor a lack of consensus. I'm not talking about deletion, nor
keeping. I'm speaking of *who* has the burden of proof to show
"notability", or the lack of notability. The author? Or everyone else? We've always
recognized that it's the contributing author who has that burden-of-proof.
