[edit] Snowball?
PersianPoetGal removed the MfD notice mentioning speedy snowball close, but how can an MfD be speedily closed as a snowball no consensus? Anchoress 08:48, 11 August 2007 (UTC)
- The arguments were overwhelmingly keep, but the administrator probably closed it to argue that users shouldn't use MFD just to prove a point. - Mtmelendez (Talk|UB|Home) 11:11, 11 August 2007 (UTC)
- I put my reasoning on the Admin's Noticeboard. But in short; based on past experiences with deleting wikiprojects and given the confusion of the whole sitution, there is no consensus on whatever the result. So close it as no consensus and allow the CVU to figure out a consensus without the cloud of deletion hanging above their heads. That will usually produce saner results.
