Hi,
Well, it doesn't go so easily. Some Commons admins refuse to accept the
community decision, and want to maintain the status quo inspite of the huge
majority of opinions for supporting this. They are usually the most vocal
and bold admins.
Some admins are supporting it, some are afraid to go against the bolder
ones. Some admins who support it do not take part because of language issue.
Some admins specifically said that they would go against the community, no
matter what. One admin even says that the
I am open for suggestions how to go forwards.
Regards,
Yann

After a discussion[1] in Commons regarding this
subject, a decision was
made, stating that URAA cannot be used as the sole reason for deletion.
We consider this a good solution for this situation, considering there is
currently no foreseeable change in US law, for example, to accept the "rule
of the shorter term".
Following our letter[1] and this decision, we would like to thank everyone
who supported this, including the WMF BoT, the legal department
(specifically Yana), WMES, WMAR, WMVE, the administrators in Commons and
the participants in the discussion.
Regards,
Yael Meron
