 * Strong keep. I have asked Northamerica1000 to stop nominating drafts at MfD, as it is at best a waste of time, and at worst a WP:BITE violation, like here. Drafts get deleted 6 months after the last edit anyway, and are not google indexed or linked to from articles. So most drafts do no harm (excepting copyvios and BLP violations, which should be speedy deleted anyway). After long community discussions, a compromise was reached that one the one hand gave draft creators and other interested parties 6 months to improve drafts after creation or after rejection, and on the other hand gave a deadline instead of keeping drafts indefinitely.

In this case though, the draft is on a university professor with lots of publications. It was rejected (correctly) on 22 March, i.e. only two weeks ago. There is not a single good reason to delete this page now, and a lot of good reasons not to delete it until 6 months have passed. Fram (talk) 09:28, 5 April 2019 (UTC)
 * SPEEDY KEEP per WP:POINT. Nomintator appears to be on a scorched earth/revenge MFD adventure. Had they cared about drafts, they would know that we grant a lot more latitude in draft space over mainspace. We dispose of most of the garbage in draft space over a 6 month stale period. The question we ask in draft space is "Is there any amount of editing that could make this appropriate for namespace?" If there is we give the editors/author a chance to improve it. If not, we let it get caught in the G13 collector. If it repeatedly gets snatched out of the G13 hands without any improvement, then we come to MFD and make a through case for deletion and not a whip phrase. Hasteur (talk) 14:22, 5 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Comment – In its present form (permanent link) the page qualifies for deletion per WP:NOTRESUME, and arguably could have been tagged G11 and then quite likely routinely deleted. Instead, I initiated a discussion for wider community input. There's no ulterior motive or "adventure". It is also important to keep in mind that Wikipedia is not a web host for the publishing of WP:PROMO content for six full months, waiting for WP:G13 deletion and leaving pages that violate WP:NOT indiscriminately in place.

 * Only goes to prove my point that you didn't even begin to consider "Is there any amount of editing that could make this appropriate mainspace?" Now shove off with your Pointy nominations. Hasteur (talk) 02:24, 6 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Comment – The rationale for deletion has already been explained in the nomination and in additional commentary. Stating that my nomination was pointy in some manner, while providing no qualification for the assertion, other than just saying it, is inappropriate, and a personal attack. Telling people to shove off based upon said aspersion is also a personal attack. This nomination in no manner, way, shape or form was created to illustrate any sort of point. This nomination was made in good faith, because I felt that this page deserved a wider community discussion; that's it. In addition to being entirely incorrect, your bizarre personal theory of a "scorched earth/revenge MFD adventure" is also a personal attack. North America1000 06:04, 7 April 2019 (UTC)


 * Weak Keep - Welcome back, User:Hasteur, and thank you for a voice of reason. This is a draft in poor condition, and needs improving within 6 months, or will be abandoned.  Robert McClenon (talk) 03:13, 6 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Strong snow keep. Wait for G13. There is no emergency or persistent disruption here that would warrant deletion. — python coder (talk &#124; contribs) 22:26, 6 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Nomination withdrawn – Per community input herein, I withdraw this nomination. I would close this myself as a speedy keep, which is allowed when no outstanding delete !votes exist, but cannot do so because such !vote exists. North America1000 06:04, 7 April 2019 (UTC)
