As a deletion I'd say we totally lost at en.wiki, we can maybe tie on other wikis.

Hoi, The English deletionists may be winning. Thank (include your deity) for Wikidata. We can include much more and, we do include much more. It includes more people who won an award that what English Wikipedia does. Thanks, GerardM

Hi Mitar,
...
First off: Please include your user name and the name of the article you were
working
on. Without any context it's impossible to help you. Thankfully I was
able
to dig and find the page, etc.
Brill Lyle, normally connecting real world identity with Wikipedia id within wikipedia is contrary to local ethos, but since Mitar links to his real page from User page, it's ok in this case.
Mitar says.....
Why introducing artificial scarcity?
You have been hit by crossfire in the long running Inclusionist vs. Deletionist war. Your rant is an excellent exposition of the Inclusionist position. When I travel among Random Articles I often wonder why they deleted AAA but they leave this BBB. I guess the explanation of that is the sprawling size of English WP, there too
much
to curate satisfactorily. Currently I'd say the Deletionists are winning.
I hope that doesn't discourage you from wikipedia. Also, consider contributing to http://wikinfo.org , concept is similar but the rules
are
different, more willing to accept polemics and non-neutrality
