yeah...lets keep personal attacks out of this. id like to explore the encyclopedic reasoning. > I never nominated the Video blog article for deletion though I did initially > vote in favour of deletion after it was nominated because I agreed with the > reasoning.

I think by now...few people could say that a Videoblog was not an artform in itself. lets put this to rest. > It's unfortunate that these are pretty much the same problems that still > plague the article.

I think if anything, we could at least document the debate...that i think we can agree on. Patrick, id like to see what you're contributing to the article. we got to start somewhere.
