Is the subject being a Wikimedian relevant to whether or not material should be published?
In practice items about Wikimedians are /more/ likely to be deleted than equivalent items about non-Wikimedians.
I know of cases (mostly now reversed, thankfully) where items about the authors of academic papers - and so clearly meeting Wikidata's notability criteria - were deleted *because* the author was also a Wikimedian.
In one case, an item was deleted by the subject Wikimedian himself, with no prior discussion. Despite this glaring conflict of interest, it has never been restored.
