I find it hard to believe that we can't come up with objective
criteria for articles that everyone agrees should be deleted.
Verifiability, for instance, is an objective criterion.
Verifiability is necessary, but not sufficient, for an encyclopaedic
article. But not everyone agrees on that (IIRC, you yourself have gone
to great --- perhaps even "extreme" --- lengths to show your disagreement).
Verifiability is in some ways quite a harsh requirement. It was what
got [[yoism]] deleted.
