To me it seems that any article which contradicts this declaration is
clearly either POV or simply wrong (the second if it pretends to make a
legal statement), and as such not suitable for Wikipedia. The only
objection which I would have is that 'delete' here is stated as the only
option. Better would be "edit and if the problem cannot be solved that way,
delete".
