Were they sockpuppets? Are they anonymous? Are they banned? If not, why should they count more than
"Delete another primary school of utter nonimportance." "Delete. A non-notable public school." "Delete. Usual reasons" "Delete yet another completely nn school"
No matter how you spin it, this call was ridiculus.

In the meantime, though, I've checked the VfD in question: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Crescent_Park_E... and it appears that the basic complaint is true - this was clearly _not_ a consensus to delete. It's very clear that it isn't, too, since as pointed out there's actually a clear majority of votes for keep/merge versus delete. I'm putting this on VfU, but really, I think this should be a speedy undelete.
While I don't necessarily agree with the decision (I think there was no consensus either way), one can see how some of the votes might have been given greater weight than others. For example:
"Keep, we winning the fight aginst school deletionism." "Keep. I heard from Aranda56 that we needed more votes for this article." "Keep I heard from Radman's sisters' aunts' brothers' cousins' girlfriends' sister that this needed to be kept!" "Keep."
