The result of the discussion was  Result was: Keep CrimsonBlue (talk) 00:37, 21 May 2010 (UTC)  Userfied on the 4th of January and not touched. It was showing up on Google until I added Noindex, shouldn't this be done automatically to deleted articles? In any case, the editor, not active for the last 2 months, had ample time to at least start work on this. Dougweller (talk) 19:07, 9 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep Four months does not reach "indefinite" for a userfied article. I think we need to recognze that many editors appear, go away for a while, and reappear.   Including many who are mainstays of WP, or who become such.   Let's try using 6 months as reasonable time frome. Collect (talk) 10:50, 11 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep - May not survive, but (with a few exceptions) think we should wait six months when there’s even a hint of a possible article.  SPhilbrick  T  13:28, 11 May 2010 (UTC)

Please leave this article alone
Although it is in bad shape (not for my fault) this is a serious article about a controversial but legitimate scientific topic, with journal references and all that. This article was first posted for deletion on december 27, 2009 and deleted on january 2, 2010 by half a dozen editors who obviously did not know anything about the topic, did not know how to search, and did not want to give others the chance to fix the article. It was later recovered from the trash bin and userified at my request. Yes, I do intend to restore it to aceptable state --- sometime before I die.

It is amazing that even hidden in my draft space this article is not safe from the claws of the rabid deletionists. I have edited thousands of Wikipedia articles over the years, and used to enjoy it. But after the deletion of this article, and several other unpleasant encounters with compulsive deletionists and taggers, editing kinda stopped being fun. I had to take a break from Wikipedia and devote more time to my real job, which I had been neglecting. Hopefully when the next school vacations start (next January) I will find the lost pleasure again, and eventually come back to this article. All the best, --Jorge Stolfi (talk) 02:56, 23 June 2010 (UTC)
