Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

In response to your statement:
At first sight your stance may seem the most logical one, as literally everyone can create an edit an article. Seeing there are currently more then 3 million article's, (Actually, there are 18,358,524 article's when man includes every page in the project, and not merely the content pages) with an edit rate of roughly 200 edits per minute the Wikipedia project would seem impossible to maintain at face value.

However, Due to the sheer size of Wikipedia it also attracted a great many volunteers who work on maintaining it around the clock. Scripts allow real time listing and checking of new pages by volunteers, and software such as Huggle allows only a handful of editors to check virtually every single edit made. Even though this first line of defense stops most bad edits, man can also not forget that article's are also continuously checked and improved by people interested in the subject.

While this may sound unbelievable consider this: You created the page at 22:25. I tagged it for removal at 22:26. it was removed at 22:29 (1). Excirial ( Contact me, Contribs ) 20:38, 25 October 2009 (UTC)
