Regarding undeleting of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Miskin_Abdal
[edit]Hello, I noticed that you closed deletion of this page with no consensus. This is very surprising to me. I spent 3 days to investigate it and came to conclusion that it was a hoax. Moreover, the statement in its first paragraph is completely wrong.
Please reconsider you decision or provide reason(s) for keeping that article which is full of false statements. thx — Preceding unsigned comment added by HeritageGuardian (talk • contribs) 21:58, 18 June 2024 (UTC)
- Hi, thanks for reaching out. Looking at the deletion discussion, three people made good arguments to delete the article, while two people disagreed and also made good arguments for why the article should be kept. It's not clear that the discussion had come to a consensus. When reading your comments, I could see that you did a lot of research on the topic, but it was not clear to me that your case was airtight―I am not an expert on the topic. More importantly, though, your stance did not appear to be the consensus of the community, and Wikipedia is governed by consensus. The discussion had been open for three weeks, and our policy is not to relist a discussion more than twice. I know you are disappointed with the outcome, but compromise is crucial to Wikipedia and I hope you can come to understand the closure. Malinaccier (talk) 01:01, 19 June 2024 (UTC)

There are four delete arguments, including mine, versus one week keep !vote which present two sources that have been proven to not be significant coverage. Please explain why you close it as no consensus. Honestly, I disagree with it. Neocorelight (Talk) 23:34, 29 July 2024 (UTC)
- Hi @Neocorelight:, I closed it as no consensus because my reading of the delete arguments was that they were mostly on the borderline and with a late keep argument coming in it seemed the discussion had not clearly come to a consensus to delete the article. I think Liz felt the same way as she relisted the discussion twice, and no further comments had been added. I then decided to close it as no consensus because relisting an AfD more than twice is frowned upon. That said, maybe this was an overly conservative "no consensus" relisting by Liz and closure by myself. I would certainly be open to hearing other uninvolved opinions on the closure. Would you like me to open a WP:DRV? Malinaccier (talk) 23:47, 29 July 2024 (UTC)
- The keep argument wasn't late, it came one day after the start of the AfD and has been responded by two users. Yes, I would like the close to be reviewed. Neocorelight (Talk) 00:14, 30 July 2024 (UTC)
