Side issue, but I have cause to mention Chesterton's Fence so often that it's become a real frustration that there is no Wikipedia article about it — only this essay about why Wikipedia contributors should honour it. I wish there was an actual article I could point to when I want people to know about it.

(Why don't I just make one? I have basically given up on making substantial contributons to Wikipedia since the Deletion Police took over the asylum. There's a 90% probability that if I did spend a couple of hours writing a good article, someone would come along within a week and spend a couple seconds deleting it. It's out of control.)
