Problem is, Controlled Viewing is an option to deletionism, but is not being 
seen as it. The current poll is to set a criteria for the exclusion of material 
from commons, whereas content hiding is [generally speaking] against it.

Why do we have to decide what we delete before we decide what we hide (acording 
to user preferences) ?
