I thought that the Wikipedia rules stated that people involved in a particular enterprise might not be the ones that write the opening post about it. Am I wrong about this?

It has recently come to my attention that the page for "Digital Medievalist" in Wikipedia has been deleted by the administrators on the grounds that it "read like an advertisement". Apparently the entry needs to be sober and encyclopedic and cite third party references. Easy enough to do, but apparently no one did.
(I'm just fresh from the battle to prevent the same happening to the Digital Classicist entry, but does anyone want to come along and help reinstate the DM page?)
