It's hardly a fallacy. It's fact. Wikipedia is filled with junk that shouldn't even have been allowed to stand for an hour, let alone years. The only reason it does is because the admins create the articles.

One of the admins arguing in the AfD even wrote that, where he openly says notability isn't even an official policy, yet that's the main argument that was being made. It wasn't notable enough. The closing admin must have been blind to this though because he seems to be laboring under the delusion that the AfD was justified due to a lack of verifiability - which was already well established with existing sources.

Seems awfully clear to me what really happened here. The same systematic purging of this information from a site that can't even make the claim of being encyclopedic with a straight face that's been going on for years now.

This. It explains the mindset there as well as anything.
