We used to have a separate page just for "lists
for deletion". Lists
aren't really ever encyclopedia articles, and the standards for them
should be different than the standards for articles.
What I mean is *only* one. This was unscientific - I didn't go through
every one, just the ones that caught my eye. A few should never have
been nominated because you don't need to ask AFD to do a merge and
redirect. Others should never have been nominated because they said it
was probably an encyclopedia topic but the article was crap - that's
blatantly trying to make others do cleanup work for you. That sort of
thing. I should go back to get actual numbers, but I've had enough AFD
today kthx and someone else can.
