Thanks for pointing out some of the flaws in [[Votes for Deletion]].

I pretty much ignore that page completely. Except a few cases where
someone called my attention to a doomed article they thought I might
care about.

Instead, once or twice a month I glance at the article deletion log and
resurrect anything that was thrown out too hastily (it's the Ent in me,
I guess: no such thing as dead wood, hoom, hoom).

The voting process is silly, and there's no consensus. 

Whatever happened to [[Wikipedia:be bold]]?

Anyway, I hardly ever want to delete anything; I'd rather fix it. I can
followe Ahoermeister (spelling?) around and un-delete half the stuff he
throws out and make a perfectly good stub out of it...
