I've been browsing CSD for a few days and I've noticed that every time I look at CSD it takes at least 40 minutes until an article is deleted. Granted I look in the afternoon, but it's sorta bad if an article stays on Wikipedia for more than 10 minutes if it shouldn't be... maybe we should do something about that.
I thought we had over 1000 admins. Granted CSD is a task not many should do, but shouldn't we make a system so that there's an "admin on duty" or an easier way to see what admins are online to help?
Either that or have me pass RFA so I can help ;-) (no i'm not running right now)

Aside from attack articles, a CSD backlog is not serious, and it is cleared regularly. 40 min is quite acceptable - indeed a day or two wouldn't concern me.
We've backlogs that have been sitting for months, and don't need the admin tools to deal with - if you are keen to help, start there.

Indeed the admin related backlogs are the least of our concerns.
