Deletion review for Miskin Abdal
[edit]An editor has asked for a deletion review of Miskin Abdal. Because you closed the deletion discussion for this page, speedily deleted it, or otherwise were interested in the page, you might want to participate in the deletion review. — Preceding unsigned comment added by HeritageGuardian (talk • contribs) 22:10, June 18, 2024 (UTC)
There are four delete arguments, including mine, versus one week keep !vote which present two sources that have been proven to not be significant coverage. Please explain why you close it as no consensus. Honestly, I disagree with it. Neocorelight (Talk) 23:34, 29 July 2024 (UTC)
- Hi @Neocorelight:, I closed it as no consensus because my reading of the delete arguments was that they were mostly on the borderline and with a late keep argument coming in it seemed the discussion had not clearly come to a consensus to delete the article. I think Liz felt the same way as she relisted the discussion twice, and no further comments had been added. I then decided to close it as no consensus because relisting an AfD more than twice is frowned upon. That said, maybe this was an overly conservative "no consensus" relisting by Liz and closure by myself. I would certainly be open to hearing other uninvolved opinions on the closure. Would you like me to open a WP:DRV? Malinaccier (talk) 23:47, 29 July 2024 (UTC)
- The keep argument wasn't late, it came one day after the start of the AfD and has been responded by two users. Yes, I would like the close to be reviewed. Neocorelight (Talk) 00:14, 30 July 2024 (UTC)
