Ed, I'd like to hear more (on the list or by email)
about how you find this tactic works for you --
especially given the cautious approach you take to most controversy.
For example, do people get upset at your undeletions?
Do you find yourself spending a lot of time researching good stubs
to replace deleted text on articles that you'd otherwise ignore?
And so on.
