But that's not exactly a "final" decision - if the section grows, it can easily be factored out into its own article again.
With any dynamic process, an individual snapshot (or even a few) might not be representative of the larger outcome or trajectory.
- Jtsummers 14y agoI understand it's not final, but it's offputting to novice contributors, and the promptness (literally minutes in this case) means that the contributer will be left confused (in this case thinking the content was completely deleted). Even if this speed is not representative, that it can happen will turn people away. How a community presents itself is incredibly important to growing it. Since that's a goal for the Wikimedia Foundation it's something they need to actively work on improving.
