Yes, Fred is right.
It is difficult to strike a balance here, though. It's one thing if
Bryan Derkson (*Bryan Derkson*, this isn't some random person, it's
*Bryan Derkson* you see) wants to recreate an article and puts forward
good arguments for it, and another thing if some POV-warring troll or
garage band tries to keep bringing back some nonsense that got properly
deleted already.
As one of the (the?) most active contributors to en.wp, do we have an
article on Bryan? No? Why not? We have 2 magazine references!
