That's what I was thinking - there are very few people that actually
fall neatly into one of those categories. If they portray Wikipedia as
having a deletion/inclusion divide it will be rather misleading. We've
pretty much reached a consensus on what it means to be notable, it's
just how to apply that to individual cases that gives us material for
our much loved dramas.
