The famous Wikipedia online encyclopedia starts to suck. Well at least the German, haven't looked at other languages.
First they (ok in particular one wikipedia guy) wanted to delete the article about my favourite live cd grml (crux linux for example is deleted).

Ok could be just an action of some random idiot. But then I read an article in Tim Pritlove's weblog that they also deleted an article about Julia Seelinger a young politician of the green party in Berlin because of their so-called "relevance criterias".

And there are many other discussions about deleting articles, for example here.

WTF has happened to wikipedia? Is there any valid argument to delete an article apart from the argument that the content itself is totally wrong?
Isn't disk storage cheap enough today to keep these articles?
Wasn't one of the goals of wikipedia to catch up all the human knowledge?

Really, I can't understand this bureaucracy currently happening in wikipedia but if some random fools start to delete articles with these arguments I
wouldn't wonder if people stop writing and editing articles for the Wikipedia. It also sad for the people who put their efforts into wikipedia and wrote the articles.

Just sad.
