Why are certain scientific articles on Wikipedia being nominated for deletion by a group of editors?

Take https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Human_genetic_clustering for example.

Wikipedia is ran by a small group of volunteers that are left wing and love power tripping. Yes, they do it for free.

Oh no, you are losing the argument and now you are taking it here like the bitch you are. Delete per nominator.

I read the article and it reads like a college research paper. Not a Wikipedia article. Still interesting though, especially the genetic ancestry website section. I never knew they were so utterly full of shit, if that essay is accurate.

the article only reveals the extent of the pernicious and compulsively deceptive tendency of these people. almost an autistic incapacity to consider that clinal patterns of genetic distance are more likely to be found among transitional populations but that within continental groupings of equal distance the similarities are much more pronounced and so a discontinuous cluster model is more accurate. It's a classic attempt at destabilizing any global attempt by researchers to develop a framework for a theory. If you literally can't even choose means of partitioning your samples or your analysis you can't possibly come to any conclusions, and that is the intention. Disallowing people to come to preliminary conclusions so that refinements can be made later. It doesn't matter that Papuans and Bantus are as distant from one another as Sibero-Americans and Khoi-san as long as there are some transitional populations that violate the discontinuity model. Fucking insane.

So. They do it for awarding each other "barn stars", Reddit style.
They want to "blow up" that article rather than fix the issue they allege but cannot locate. Clowns like that is why I stopped writing Wikipedia articles.

Modern leftish philosophers tend to dismiss reason, science, objective reality and to insist that everything is culturally relative. It is true that one can ask serious questions about the foundations of scientific knowledge and about how, if at all, the concept of objective reality can be defined. But it is obvious that modern leftish philosophers are not simply cool-headed logicians systematically analyzing the foundations of knowledge. They are deeply involved emotionally in their attack on truth and reality. They attack these concepts because of their own psychological needs. For one thing, their attack is an outlet for hostility, and, to the extent that it is successful, it satisfies the drive for power. More importantly, the leftist hates science and rationality because they classify certain beliefs as true (i.e., successful, superior) and other beliefs as false (i.e., failed, inferior). The leftist’s feelings of inferiority run so deep that he cannot tolerate any classification of some things as successful or superior and other things as failed or inferior. This also underlies the rejection by many leftists of the concept of mental illness and of the utility of IQ tests. Leftists are antagonistic to genetic explanations of human abilities or behavior because such explanations tend to make some persons appear superior or inferior to others. Leftists prefer to give society the credit or blame for an individual’s ability or lack of it. Thus if a person is “inferior” it is not his fault, but society’s, because he has not been brought up properly.

Dunno, Nepal was quite low in subsequent Lynn's books too
