Then I came across [[GoogLunaPlex]] (sp?) It sounded like some sort of April Fool's joke or hoax or something. I put {deletebecause|probably hoax} or something on it. The trouble is, I wasn't really sure. What would be nice if there was a tag that said "At first glance, this is junk. Can someone please check this, and either remove this template, or complete the nomination". Instead, the only tag I know of basically says "This evil piece of trash needs to die now".
There's already such a template it's called {{afd}}. Anyway. Sean, did you tag your in progress article with {{inuse}}? Upon returning did you talk to Savidan about his actions?
The thing is, he can't mindread and it's not uncommon for people to leave things unfinished. If you're patrolling Recentchanges or Newpages, you don't have the time, to recheck if someone finished their article. It will take the speed out of your work.
If you tag it with {{inuse}} or work on it in your userspace, you've got a lot lower chance of it getting deleted.
