I, Ashibaka, hereby establish the Association of Wikipedians Who Dislike Making Broad Judgements About the Worthiness of a General Category of Article, and Who Are In Favor of the Deletion of Some Particularly Bad Articles, but That Doesn't Mean They are Deletionist (AWWDMBJAWGCAWAIFDSPBATDMTD).

The motto of the AWWDMBJAWGCAWAIFDSPBATDMTD is Est generatim difficilis judicare meritum quisdam rei includato in encyclopaedia cum non certe ratione scire qui capit populum, sed aliqui rei nihilominus non sunt apti prae encyclopaedia, which translates to, "it is generally difficult to judge the worthiness of a particular topic for inclusion in an encyclopedia considering that there is no certain way to know what interests people, but some topics nevertheless are not fit for an encyclopedia". This motto reflects the desire of these Wikipedians to be reluctant, but not entirely unwilling, to remove articles from Wikipedia.

Membership is not limited. All you have to do to become a member is list your name here. If you feel like expressing your wishy-washy feelings, you can do so at /Blurbs.

The current General Secretary is Everyone. Welcome to Wikipedia! Wikipedia is an encyclopedia written collaboratively by its readers. The site is a Wiki, meaning that anyone, including you, can edit almost any article right now by clicking on the edit this page link that appears at the top of every Wikipedia article. All members are the Secretary, so nominations are unnecessary. Matters that concern the AWWDMBJAWGCAWAIFDSPBATDMTD as a group necessitate a vote.

Goals

I have always felt that these should be everyone's common goals:

  1. Judge not, lest ye be judged.
  2. Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.
  3. Love thy neighbour as thyself.
