Hear hear. Instead of moving VfD to AfD, we might as well have moved it to "Wikiproject Deletion." The last thing we need is a group of people who _specialize_ in deciding what articles are allowed in Wikipedia. The small, obscure articles don't get many people from outside the VfD regulars to consider the matter.
How about only permitting people 3 votes per day in total?

Having a vote threshold simply won't work. Last night I closed 4 AfD's, all on Bus Stops (result was no consensus). What if each voter could only vote on 3 of the 4, and then no more articles at all? Besides, that would just increase the number of articles who don't get enough votes to reach consensus- they'd have to be relisted, increasing the AfD load.
