I can confirm that this is the same in the chinese Wikipedia. Actually we
have just had a very intensive debate about how to handle substubs and if
anime figures could have their own article. We have also had debates about
how to handle articles which is marked as fast deletable, and the criterians
of fast deletable articles, and natually complaints about this or that
decision of this or that sysop.
