Zoe-
Please view my Talk page at http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Zoe, where information has been moved from the Votes for Deletion page. Once again, GrahamN (who is on record as saying "I don't like you"), MyRedDice (who never met a vandal he didn't like) and anthere (who seems to have problems with users on every Wiki she works on) are attacking me for making a sysop decision, and they are demanding my syspo status be taken away.
You are mischaracterizing what has been said.
Anthere: "I will not support removing sysop status to Zoe, because she is making very good work and I globally trust us, and certainly trust to do what she thinks is the best for Wikipedia. But to be honest, I don't trust very much her on the spot decision of deletions."
Martin: "Personally, I'd have just reinstated the copyvio notice, and possibly left a note on Gorged's page, rather than deleting the article. Others here have suggested additionally protecting the page. I hope that Zoe will follow one of those suggested approaches in the future."
GrahamN: "So Zoe deleted it off her own bat without nominating it to be deleted, and without even discussing it with anybody? Isn't that a blatant abuse of her sysop status? What's going on? Has she been given some special dispensation to ignore all the rules she doesn't like, or what?"
I think Graham's comments can be characterized as attacks, but Anthere & Martin seem to be trying to understand what happened. Graham seems to have some personal problems with you, which is unfortunate. I suggest ignoring him.
I think that it was a mistake to delete the page and that it should have been protected instead, and/or that the user should have been warned. I do not think that your sysop status should be revoked because of a single mistake. I do believe that you are overreacting.
