'Cos what I'm saying is to just enforce the policy that's already
there, and is referred to both at beginning and end of VFD as being
a thing to follow, in the hope of making VFD somewhat smaller so
that it may be more humanly manageable.
I really don't see what's so hard about actually putting a reason bearing
a relationship to policy, particularly when VFD explicitly says to do so.
To clarify, I was responding to Pete/Pcb21's suggestion that was,
basically, "Why use VFD at all, we should just decide what should be
speedy deleted and use that."
I am much in favor of your suggestion that nominations at VfD that do
not reference a reason listed in the deletion policy should be removed
forthwith.
