The WMF does not engage in such matters, this is a community issue. And given the unwillingness of admins to act in this case, I think a discussion on the project chat on whether or not these items are notable makes a lot more sense than continued discussion on the administrators' noticeboard (or here). Admins have an easier time implementing consensus than making decisions themselves, and if some don't want to undelete the items then it would cause quite some conflict if others did.

Hi Sjoerd,
I'm just asking about unfolding Wikidata community process - and in relation too to WMF.
Greetings, Scott

Hello,
Sorry, but what has "the new head of the WMF" to do with the community matters of Wikidata?

Thanks Andy for helping focus these developing process questions. What role could the new head of the WMF play here in positive regards?

my personal opinion is that these items are fine as well. But (and here's the important thing), it's not a big deal either way. The site will continue, and this especially should not be
a time
for trying to force an opinion one way or the other onto the
community. :-)
The big deal is about how we decide how Wikidata policies are applied
- do we seek to obtain community consensus, or do we allow involved
admins to decide by fait accompli?
