Deletion of Criticism of Vladimir Putin

Comment: Remarks such as, "If this article were to remain there should also be an article called Appreciation for Vladimir Putin" imply a narrow understanding of the word "criticism." Criticism in intelligent discussion (see, for example, critical theory) does not usually mean simply "to censure or find fault with," as in, "waaaaah, don't criticize me," but rather http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/criticise "to judge or discuss the merits and faults of", as in, "the movie critic gave the film 3 1/2 stars." Criticism involves both merits ''and'' faults; it therefore ''does'' have at least an ''a priori'' neutrality to it. What it lacks is ''apathy''. And  is of limited relevance when information is properly sourced. Public figures and criticism are inherently intertwined; to point this out is not libelous, but to hide it is censorship
