BTW, I found a couple of other subpages that

had been speedied as "G1 Patent Nonsense" by User:^demon on May 31, a
reason which indicates a _complete_ missing of the point of BJAODN. Some
of them were even individual articles that had been page-moved into
BJAODN, which meant that the GFDL was completely happy in those cases.
This highlights that our speedy deletion process is being heavily
overused, by people with more zeal than strength at facilitation, with
little consideration given to the efforts of others. We should
ideally have a culture in which it is impossible for anyone to delete
thousands or edits by others without discussion... and in which speedy
deletion is a last resort, not something one spends an afternoon doing
as quickly as possible.
Not to mention that G1 doesn't even apply here. From [[WP:PN]]:
"The following, while often regrettable, *are not* patent nonsense. [...]
* Poorly written content [...]
* Incompetent and/or immature material [...]"
^demon really needs to be tapped with the clue-by-four. There are honest
mistakes, and then there's willful ignorance coupled with [[WP:IDONTLIKEIT]].
I'm going to AGF and assume it's an honest mistake.
Admins should take some time to read up on the policies and guidelines they are
invoking before applying them.
