He said "deletion preview team". He
didn't say "elite, hand-picked
group of Jimbo's best friends". Just like AFC, it would be who ever
volunteers and can be bothered doing it.
Except that under the model I "dreamed up" :) The volunteers would
have to have admin privs in order to delete the no-brainers. Anything
else could be done by any volunteer, admin or not.
I also don't think he was proposing scrapping the
existing direct AFD
method, for those that know how to do it. He's just proposing an
easier method in addition. I think.

And it should help the problem you describe by keeping
some articles
out of AFD that don't need to be there.
For this to work, the direct nomination method would have to be
scrapped or else a troll/vandal could get a bullshit nom past the
team. However, using such a system and keeping direct nominations
would still have a benefit in allowing anons and those unfamiliar with
deletion procedure to make a nom and even have it "proofread" for them
:)
