Once I witnessed awesome articles [others added and I used with delight] on open source frameworks as well as some minor facts [I added] on other subjects deleted for being "insignificant" I decided I'm not donating to Wikipedia until this bullshit ends.

Wiki articles are not videos, they take humble disk space to host so I can't recognize any reason in dismissing "insignificant" information other than a stupid rule.

IMHO whatever can be considered a piece of knowledge should be there.

BTW nearly the same applies to StackOverflow - thanks to high reputation points I earnt during the early days I can see deleted questions and answers and I often see really interesting (having three-figure upvvote scores and dozens of stars) questions and very informative (also heavily upvoted) answers deleted.
