Help with CSS Reference Manual article 

Dear editor, this morning, I found a new article (CSS Reference Manual) initiated by another author (that I am not acquainted to). However, while the article was at that point (and this moment as well) clearly still 'work in progress', another editor/commenter  had put an 'AfD' on it. Because I feel a strong need for this new article to exist, I defended it strongly with valid arguments, even stating that I wanted to contribute to it myself. However, at the point where on-topic discussions based on argumentation seized to exist, the editor/commenter  started to attack me personally, by openly questioning my personal credibility.
At his talk-page, an earlier ban (half way of the page) is present based on personal attacks (although I am not fully sure that he was the one given the ban or that he was the one that gave the ban to someone else).

Nevertheless: because of this AfD, the article gets flamed now by other users that don't take a closer look at it, for no valid reason, just because it's currently labeled as 'AfD'...

My question is therefore: could you help me out to let this article be enhanced properly to Wikipedia standards?
Because I strongly feel that there is a need for it, it deserves a decent chance, because I would not liketo see very hard work thrown down the drain because of "a bully" that was banned before for personal attacks, and because the article's initial author (again: not me) has done a good job in starting it.
