I have followed this a little, and it seems that there
is a concensus that a reasonable amount of time should
pass between relisting of the same article. 3-6 months
seems reasonable to me, I think another poll proposing
this would pass easily.

This poll on an amendment to the deletion policy:
Deletion_policy#Proposed_new_rule:_No_repeat_submission_of_articles
has become a bit of a mess, due to my slightly
unfortunate choice of
words when I opened the poll.
I have now added a statement acknowledging the
problems but I have
requested that the poll results be respected despite
the (arguably not
major) insufficiencies.
However I feel that any further steps towards
codifying the proposed
rule might be frowned upon if I take them.
I would like to ask our admins to help
I would like to request that an admin (preferably a
few admins) look at
the situation and see if it can be sorted out
without a repeat poll.
I don't think a repeat poll is a good idea because
with every poll
there will be deviating preferences and minor
criticisms.
I feel that if that were enough to invalidate a poll
then every poll
would have to be invalidated and we could never make
any decision.
We'd end up holding polls on whether we can accept a
poll on whether we
can accept a poll.
Again, I'd like to ask for some "old hands" (admins)
to please look at
things and provide some guidance and leadership as
regards this issue.
