If the page is question was junk then there is no time
limit. And the "policy" you speak of is the "one week
rule" for listed items which you know very well that
you wrote yourself on the votes for deletion page and
I later bolded. I stated in the edit summary that I
agreed with it but that it "needed to have list
approval". I don't remember getting this approval.

No mention here of a time period.

Here is the link to your addition to the votes for
deletion page;

http://www.wikipedia.org/w/wiki.phtml?title=Wikipedia:Votes_for_deletion&diff=177211&oldid=177189

The way I understand how to use the votes for deletion
page is to list page titles whose content has to be
moved, copyright violations and anything else there is
doubt about. Utter junk should be deleted on sight,
otherwise there would be at least a dozen page titles
added to the vote for deletions page every day.
