It's been a while since I did a speedy patrol to check how our newpages patrollers were handling the A7 "no assertion of notability" criterion. I was rather shocked. by what I encountered in two short bouts of patrolling this morning and at lunchtime. In the following, I list *only* the points of notability that were contained in the articles at the time they were speedied as "non-notable".
Did you leave notes for them all?
A7 is way too unclear, and some fools want to *expand* it.
Yes, I left notes for them all. Even the guy who deleted the article about Brolly (not the same guy as the first deleting editor) while I was cleaning it up.
Your fair share of those could be deleted for lacking context or being unverifiable, but some people take CSD 7 too far. I prefer contentious articles taken to AFD over being speedied. Tony, did you undelete these articles or ask the deleting admins to do so?
