The [http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Fundraising recent fundraising page] says, "Imagine a world in which every person has free access to the sum of all human knowledge. That's what we're doing."  We are not doing that, indeed we are actively preventing that, if we are deleting articles solely due to their obscurity. ''"Detailed obscure topics hurt no-one because it's pretty hard to find them by accident, and [[Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not|Wikipedia isn't paper]]" (from [[Wikipedia:Importance]]).'' Further, currently obscure, or seemingly obscure, subjects may garner more popular interest at a later date. In such a case, deleted articles will constitute a loss of valuable (and perhaps, in the transitory world of the internet, irreproducible) information.
