Wikipedia:Deletion review/Rationales to impeach George W. Bush

Rationales to impeach George W. Bush
Undelete. There was nothing approaching consensus on the (third) AfD (see Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion/Rationales to impeach George W. Bush (3rd nomination)); summary of closing admin is incorrect. &#0151; JEREMY 04:29, 14 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Interesting. The closer called this one as "merge and delete" however, it does not appear that deletion was actually executed (and it's unclear if the merger occurred either).  The article was instead redirected with the history intact.  Actually reviewing this discussion took a great deal of time.  Due to the allegations of abuse during the discussion, I reviewed every user's contribution history and used a slightly higher-than-normal standard to ensure that the discussion was fairly conducted.  On a strict vote-count, I tallied 104 to "delete" (9 excluded as anonymous or suspiciously new users, 1 as a probable troll), 42 to "keep as is" (5 excluded as anonymous or suspiciously new, one as a probable troll) and 17 to "merge" (1 anon excluded).  3 abstained or were too ambiguous to call.  I count that as 94 to 52 in favor of deleting the page history - which does not, in my opinion, reach the threshold for rough consensus for deletion.  However, I also count 111 to 36 against retaining this as an independent page.  Those conclusions do not change based on the inclusion of the anon and new users.  Given the requirements in GFDL to preserve attribution history, I do not believe that "merge and delete" is an acceptable resolution in all but the rarest of cases.  So while I personally would prefer that this page be deleted from the history, I endorse what has actually happened - creation of the page as a redirect with history intact.

 * Endorse closure. This was the best thing to happen, all useful information is preserved. Christopher Parham (talk) 07:03, 14 May 2006 (UTC)
