True, in a way. I've several deletion decisions, vicariously. Once
upon a time, I had a reputation for something other than witchcraft,
and a request like "{{db|because i said so [see XfD]}}" would usually
be fulfilled. Of course, non-deletion decisions are often more
rewarding, especially those that require thought or creativity, such
as merging (even if nobody else suggested that), or fixing whatever
the original problem was (particularly if nobody else even gave it a
try).
