I have closed the deletion review of the "Conservative notice board" under the so-called "Snowball" clause. This was a wikiproject created in bad faith by a person who spammed the talk pages of 52 other editors saying that they had identified themselves as conservatives and inviting them to join.
I agree with and support the deletion, and the closure of DRV, in principle. Controversy seems to be only about whether other pages of a similar nature should also be deleted, and some wikilawyering about the deletion process.
I believe it would have been wise to move some of the discussion to a separate page, to encourage a debate about which kind of noticeboards (LGBT, Politics etc.) are acceptable.
