As for "abstain" votes on nomination for AfD, it's because there's really no better place for people to say "I think there's something wrong with this article, what should be done?" Just putting {{cleanup}} or {{wikify}} on something won't fix it in a hurry. Putting {{afd}} on it /will/.
I'm in two minds about this. Should we allow the casual use of AfD as a cleanup resource? I think I'd be inclined to regard such use of AfD as borderline bad faith. If someone really thinks an article needs to be cleaned up, *and quickly*, he should just do a quick edit to remove whatever it is that makes him uncomfortable about the article from the current version. This should take a minute or so.
