This is something that has been bothering me for quite a long time. Basically, all of these matchups become "X deletes Y" or "X makes Y's page blank". While this may seem valid at first, after some analisis you will notice that it is far from the case.
It does not affect everyone
So tell me: What happens to PewDiePie when you delete this page? What happens to Crabwhale when you delete this page? Literally nothing, they keep existing and the only thing you managed to do is make the winner harder to decide since people now can not read their page. Even a few fictional characters are unaffected by this: Laika existed before having a page here, The Player existed before having a page here, I even deleted my own page a couple of days ago to see if I kept exist, and I still exist.
Of course, OC and other profiles which originated here AND HAVE NOT SHOWN TO EXIST OUT OF THE WIKI would still be exterminated without a doubt, but that brings me to my second point.
Vandalism
I can not believe people NEVER take this into account. Unless you have a reason to delete a page, it will be considered vandalism, you will receive a warn or outright be blocked, and the page will be restored. You are basically doing a suicide attack that might not even work in the first place.
tl;dr: Stop using that argument, it is stupid and invalid in most cases.
