Wikipedia:Deletion policy/Reducing VfD load/Analysis

=Would it help?= Certain new Speedy Deletion criteria have been suggested to alleviate VFD load. I've done a quick analysis of old VFD pages to count nominations that would fall under these new criteria, and see what happened to them.

Please do not debate here! Feel free to add more examples, or add a brief description why an example is wrong, but actual debate on the speedy criteria goes on the parent page, Deletion_policy/Reducing_VfD_load

The results are summarized below for people wanting more information.
 * "Unanimity for deletion" means just that - the nomination got no keep votes, except possibly a few from obvious sockpuppets
 * ">80% consensus" means that at least 80% of VFD votes was to delete (or, sometimes, to userfy, or to replace with something else of the same name). This is obviously above the threshold to delete, per VFD procedure.
 * "Exceptions" lists those articles that at first glance seem to fall under the criterion, but in actuality do not. The reason why is also explained. Note that none of these were nominated by admins.
