Questionable is being nice. "shitty" "sexist" "woman hating BS"
is what is not very nice - in a wikipedia context, anyway... :-)

Are you /seriously /implying I nominated the Tod Akin article for
those reasons?
Tom
I think a related point of concern is the tone that editors can take
during some of these deletion discussions, although it is disturbing to
have so many iconic feminist articles nominated for deletion at once
(Pussy Riot, pregnancy from rape, Sandra Fluke). Some of the comments
//just a party tool// //"fame" is "do you remember that person Rush
called a slut?"// on the most recent DRV for Sandra Fluke
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Deletion_review/Log/2012_August_22#Sandra_Fluke)
made me wish that there was some teeth in [[WP:CIVIL]].
