A lot of articles get deleted because they're crap (CSD etc.). Yes, deletionism can go too far, and crowing about how much one has deleted is hardly the epitome of virtue, but keeping the site clean of spam, vandalism and crap is a good thing.
- hugh3 15y agoSometimes when I'm really bored I read the Articles for Deletion. It's always enough to satisfy myself that... yep, the articles being deleted really are crap. I admire wikipedia editors, the gnomes of our age, working tirelessly on a boring, unglamorous task which gives them satisfaction.
