It is to be expected that experienced wikipedians can find things to
write about. However our new article creation has historically been
for the most part driven by new users (and a handful of experienced
users who managed to create very large numbers of articles) who may
more legitimately be running out of things they can write articles on
that won't get deleted on sight.
