The peer-review that really matters happens only after publication. Refusing to do pre-publication peer review only hurts science indirectly. Scientist will have to search through more poor quality papers when doing a literature study or might miss some good quality articles because they stopped consulting a journal that publishes too much low quality research.
Anybody else find it ironic that the site that has descriptions of objects like the lightsaber and "events" like Battle of the Line deletes articles about actual people and/or places because they aren't noteworthy?
Well, Lightsaber has over 50 000 page views per month and the Battle of the Line received over 5000 in July. So one could objectively argue that they have more reason to be included than an entry on a non-fictional person, such as Francis Holburne.

Such an object can not exist according to the special theory of relativity. Also see the Ehrenfest paradox.
