[WikiEN-l] Different DRV threshold for speedy deletions?

[David Alexander Russell]

This occured to me recently - wouldn't it make a lot of sense to lower 
the threshold to 50% for a successful undeletion of speedies? I'm all 
for keeping the 75% threshold for stuff deleted via *fd, since *fd 
deletions require consensus to achieve, it makes sense to require a high 
standard to overturn that decision, however if an article has been 
speedied (ie the deletion judgment was made by one admin, rather than a 
discussion on *fd), and 60% of people think that it shouldn't have been, 
surely there is something wrong there.

Sure, I know that voting is evil, Wikipedia is not a democracy and so 
on, but shouldn't speedies (or, to be more precise, an individual 
admin's interpretation of whether a page meets the speedy deletion 
criteria) which are not subject to any community scrutiny be easier to 
overturn than *fd votes, which are?

Cynical
