What do you call it when the same article gets recreated and deleted

Low grade vandalism which requires no subjective judgement on the part
of admins.
And yet you wouldn't call any delete war low grade vandalism? I believe
Jimbo has gone so far as to call any revert war vandalism. Unless you
propose that we only allow admins to create pages, blank pages, or change
pages into redirects, I don't see how allowing non-admins to delete and
undelete is going to change the ability of vandals to vandalize. Even then,
you'd probably have to turn off the ability of non-admins to edit at all to
have much of an effect on vandalism.
Deletion was given only to admins when adminship was supposed to be no big
deal. Maybe if adminship were no big deal again you could restrict deletion
only to admins.
