Hmm, with the *fD's being as overloaded as they are, I don't like the
idea of abusing them more this way. *fD is supposed to be about
deleting articles, not attraction attention to debates that need to be
had. And deleting the article wouldn't exactly stop the debate being
had again next week anyway...whereas having the debate and gaining
consensus that it was a bad idea would.
