Not that I'm surprised VfD is a nest of hornets. I've thought it a bad
idea from the start.
It's also disturbing that pages that aren't offensive or illegal are
being listed on VfD. There is *no need* to delete stub entries. We have
methods of indicating them as stubs, which is much more constructive
than simply deleting them.
Agreed. Very few of the pages listed have any particular reason to be
deleted. I still believe an altogether moratorium on deletions for a period
of time would do wonders. Making it so that blanked pages produced red links
would probably help shoot down one of the arguments for deletion, as well.
