Hmm, I couldn't find the article (guess it's been deleted), but I did find a mention of it in the New York Post. I don't think this article should have been deleted, and in fact I think it's kind of obvious that it should have at least been kept as a redirect. Turning it into a redirect wouldn't have required AFD or a speedy deletion criterion.
Forums and Blogs
I assume you don't mean [[Forums and Blogs]], so I'm really not sure where you're coming from. But I also think maybe we miscommunicated over what I was disputing. You suggested that there were articles which "everyone agrees should be deleted" but which there could be no speedy deletion criteria to cover. Your first example was of something which I think pretty much everyone would agree should be a redirect. This one, well, it doesn't seem to be an article at all.
Bands (C-Moon - German, is it vanity or not?)
User:Zordrac certainly doesn't seem to think so. But I'd say the article meets a speedy deletion criterion I'd like to see established - it contains no references to verify the information in it.
Schools (examples shouldn't be needed for this one), although I have to admit discussion is pretty much growing on this. I'm sure this will eventually lead to notability guidelines.
Yeah, you don't have my support to delete any schools, and I think a lot of people would agree with me. I think what will happen eventually here is that schools will not be eligible for deletion due to notability.
All these could be covered by some number statistic and notability guidelines, but a quick test to easily determine its deletion worthiness is much harder. Doesn't mean we shouldn't try to find one, though.
Well, the only one which I agree should be deleted fails a quick and easy test - it contains no external references.
