Writer Andrea James asserts that victims of deletion are often a woman or "minority group" member. She blames the deletion problem on "primarily older white male deletionists". If you look up the author you will discover she is "an American trans woman and controversial LGBT rights activist" according to her Wikipedia entry[1].
When an article deviates into social justice topics, red flags go up. First of all, how is it possible to ascertain the identity of the admins; do they have mugshots somewhere on the site? Or is she just guessing based on cultural biases displayed by the deleters?
A debate and discussion about Wikipedia is in order, but this particular article is polluted by the author's personal biases, in my judgement.
