The case in point?
A biography of a banker called Howard Paul. The article claims the guy was important because he was president of the "American Banking League". I speedy deleted the article in December, because, guess what? The "American Banking League"doesn't exist. The article is a certain hoax.
Enter DRV last week. Deletion review overturns the deletion because my deletion didn't meet the precise letter of the sacred "Criteria". See here. All the wonkers check the criteria (if they don't know them by heart) and agree. No one bothers to check the links on the article and discover it's codswallop.
Amazingly, my old inclusionist friend "DGG" votes to restore it, noting he already declined a prod on the article. So, twice now he's moved to retain this crap. And he asserts that his prior failure to delete bullshit makes my speedy deletion of bullshit invalid?
The bottom line is that wikiprocess have lost all touch with their supposed objective to keeping crap out, and good content in. Yet another reason for me avoiding the asylum.
And immediately after I post here, it goes on "Articles for deletion".
OK, I dare everyone to vote:
"Delete per wikipedia review thread"!!!
