The problem with your criticism is that "they" can't be identified. It is like blaming "the OSM mappers" (what? me?) for putting more energy into mapping England than Scotland. You can of course be dissatisfied with the poor coverage of some regions, but you don't achieve anything by trying to blame the entire project for this. Some articles get improved, others not, others again get deleted. The best insurance for keeping your article is to make it good. >From OSM, perhaps we should just link to Wikipedia articles that are pretty good already (more than 1 kbyte of text, and having source citations), since these are more likely to stay around. > The person how decided to complain should be required to back up > a complaint within a reasonable time, And now you're complaining about Wikipedia. So how are you going to "back up" your complaint?
