Well there is/was a "deletion sorting" project. Paralell to the "standard
process". See
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Prefixindex/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Deletion_sorting>
for a list of theyr subpages. Not sure how active or up to date they are
at all times though, but it's a nice idea if somewhat labour intensive in
it's current form.
