For a start admins shouldn't be afraid to follow concensus rather than the

In fact I see this happen quite often. People are ambiguous about what
they
want, yet they seem to only bold one of the two extremes: keep or delete.
As
if any sort of middle way can't be discussed.

I'd recommend ignoring any word in bold. Read and consider what commenters
actually say, rather than what they think they're voting. If the commenter
has done a good job of making their case, the bold word out front is
extraneous. If they're ambiguous, the bold word is harmful and misleading.
