Why is a blank page better than a revert?

It's not, it's supposed to be a redirect to the proper name, which I just restored. Bloodshedder 21:34, 21 Mar 2005 (EST)

But it’s NOT his name? Why we should keep a false name? Why not Boris Iawanksi, Boris Iwamsky and so on? Ducon 23:57, 21 Mar 2005 (EST)
I guess because we (I) inadvertently populated the page, so people could stumble across it in histories, link backs, etc. (for that reason, before anyone actually clicks on 'em, I'd suggest removing those two examples from your message here; :) )Jon
