 * Keep deletion rationale makes no sense, no evidence of WP:BEFORE, and one of several similarly unusual deletion nominations by a new editor. Jclemens (talk) 07:58, 27 March 2022 (UTC)
 * I would agree. Very unusual deletion nominations. Feels more like a personal vendetta than someone who has competently assessed the articles' merits. Nml25 (talk) 09:00, 27 March 2022 (UTC)
