Absolutely. I think more editors should use this method of appeal, since 
listing an article that can be seen and edited on a forum that requires a 
consensus to delete stands a far, far better chance of success than 
appealing for the undeletion of an article that most people cannot see and 
nobody can edit, and that requires a quorum and a majority vote to undelete.

However this only highlights the absurdity of the extremely onerous VFU 
requirements. Taken alongside the worrying trend on VFU to deprecate the 
function of reconsidering the merits of neglected arguments, anyone would 
think we were trying to *avoid* remedying mistaken deletions.
