It's old now, but I'm proud of http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Votes_for_deletion/Shooting_Fish
First, it doesn't surprise me that finding a case is so difficult. This case, however, doesn't really fit here as an example: 1. They changed the content significantly, essentially an article about a different subject now with only some loose ties. 2. The admin decision was still based on the majority vote.
I'd be interested in a case where the content didn't have to undergo any extreme changes and the admins action was opposite of the majority. It doesn't have to be 27-3, but a 15-5 would still be an odd case.~~~~Pro-Lick
