So why not add non-notability to the deletion policy? If it's one of the 
most commonly used reasons for listing an article and yet it isn't 
actually listed as a valid reason for deletion in the deletion policy, 
it seems there's already a pretty big problem either with the VfD 
process or with the deletion policy.
