I really hate that stupid Soul Sister song …

But doesn't putting the article in Directory space make it subject to takeover by Wikia reps?

I will be waiting for them to contact me to claim ownership of the page by proving to me that they represent legal authority for Wikia, Inc. (Providing a statement on letterhead that includes the business address of the headquarters would typically be proof of a going corporation, wouldn't it?)

Regardless, the next day, the old content would be on a new page entitled "Criticism of Wikia", and I'd make more of an effort to invite some of those now-defected Wikians to help out, and I'd optimize even more semantic keywords for search purposes.

So, it's totally up to Gil what he wants to do.
