I'll add that it doesn't take much to simply create an account and
create an article that says "I luv Jane Doe she iz so awsumtastic!!"
While banning anonymous creation in the mainspace had its good

To an extent this is true, but no more (or less) than saying "all

Yeah, but that won't work. It needs at least an exception for speedy
deletion. Slowly I'm starting to notice im heading more in the
direction of hardcore inclusionists, on grounds off [[WP:HARMLESS]]
and [[WP:USEFULL]], and stop seeing the use of notability guidelines.
