[edit] The Little Mandate
Please don't be so bold when it comes to AfDed articles (The Little Mandate). Non-administrators should only close an AfD when the consensus is a unanimous "keep". Moreover, changing the content of a page to a redirect is not the same as deleting the page (with all its history, something you can do only if you're an admin, and after AfD) and then re-creating it as a redirect. --Pablo D.

Thanks for the head's up regarding the AfD (which I still don't quite understand, even from your note, haha) -- but since it was I who created "The Little Mandate" entry, and no one else had edited it, it seemed okay for me to delete it. I wouldn't have deleted an article under any other circumstances. -- Mecandes 20:03, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
