I think it would be disruptive to restore a deleted article after an AfD and
insist on a rerun of the vote. I've suggested something called deletion
challenge, which would be a one-off rerun that could be performed with or
without temporary undeletion (the latter to be performed if any admin thinks
it is merited). It did not find any favor, however. While I would favor this
because it would place the challenge in exactly the same forum inwhich the
original vote took place, and would use exactly the same mechanisms but a
slightly different decision-making process, there is also something to be
said for having a separate review forum.
But something needs to be done about the barrier to undeletion. To be
consistent with deletion policy, undeletion should be performed unless there
is a consensus to keep deleted. At present there is a majority rule and a
quorum.
