VFD is part of Wikipedia, why would it work the opposite way from the rest of the wiki. It takes me just a minute to substantiate proof something is worth of an entry. Yes, it takes some time, but it's time well spent. That's exactly why AFD needs knowledgeable people.
And if you come up with proof of relevance, your work will still be for naught if the howling boeotians refuse to recant their delete votes. And any admin who dares disregard a numerical consensus to delete when the minority side has a valid argument to keep will be wikisued: ask Tony Sidaway about this.
There's a lot of editors and admins who've given up on VFD/AFD precisely because of the problems Stan is talking about, including many of Wikipedia's best editors.
