There was nothing in my contribution that violated any published terms
of use for the wiki.  It was not offensive, illegal, spam or
vandalism.  You might argue that it was irrelevant or misplaced.  But
if we have non-project members deleting contributions from committers
based on their views of what they consider to be irrelevant content,
and banning accounts, all without discussion or approval by the PPMC,
then that is entirely unacceptable. Note further that this was in the
FAQ section of the doc, which I would consider to be "core"
documentation under PPMC oversight.
