Deleting all of these stories is basically suicide. I admit, I wanted Jeff to be deleted. But the surge of users leaving the wiki is going to be too huge to deal with if we just delete all of this shit. Sonic and Jeff only had backlash on DeviantArt by angsty kids who hate the wiki no matter what we do. Although the community backlash may be small, this still doesn't really excuse getting rid of the classics.

The more famous pastas we delete, the more traffic (good or bad) we lose to the wiki. One of these days we're going to piss off some of the faces of the comunity (i.e Mr.Creepypasta, CreepsMcPasta or Someordinarygamer) and they're just going to say "Don't visit this site, go to Creepypasta.com, or somewhere else. From now on I'm getting stories from there."

And to bring a counterexample to what guy said, Jeff the Killer is like a fossilized peice of shit (or Copprolite). It may be disgusting and old, but it allows scientists to study the behavior of long dead species. Its like how people may get interested in Jeff, Ben or Slenderman and come to this site and slowly grow out of them and move on to better written pastas.
