The other day I got reverted for removing a speedy tag from a good article (the thing was tagged as vanity, which is not a reason for deletion). That's not the good bit. The good bit is: I removed it again, and got reverted by a completely different user, and was told that nobody may remove speedy tags, but must use {{hangon}} until a discussion at [[Wikipedia:Speedy deletions]] has been concluded.
Fwiw, in those situations, if I remove it again, I would tend to replace it with a comment like <!-- according to [[WP:FOO]] vanity is not a reason to speedy. Consider {{prod}} or {{afd}} instead? -->
