The original debate was global, there were people that believed our
standards should be much stricter all over and there were people the
believed our standards should be much more relaxed all over. That
global debate finished years ago, there are now separate debates
regarding different topics (BLPs and fiction are the two main ones, I
think). Classifying people as "inclusionist" or "deletionist" doesn't
work in the current environment since someone might be on one side for
one topic and the other for others.
