Starters, more admins, but RFA is borked beyond borked, and will until
people just fixit and get the RFA trolls out.  Next, something simple. The
current system works mostly, it just doesn't scale because there aren't
enough people to do it. Don't treat BLPs for deletion any different than
anything else. If it's a flagrant attack article ("JOE SUCKS, FRED SUCKS,
etc") nuke under CSD. For stuff like Crystal Gale, scrub, stub. Leave
history for people to work off. Protect, get it rebuilt right. Leave history
for a while. Let admins rebuild the shell under protection like Ron Jeremy
and that Scientology lady's one was. Once the article is fixed, nuke the
original history to clean it up for good.

For DRV, maybe a good idea would be a simple limit: no article by name more
than twice per month?
