improve the debate-percentage and require people to provide

One of the things that's often bothered me is people voting, not without
reasons, but with illogical/irrelevant reasons and knowing that they're
still being counted as a "delete" or "keep" vote (e.g. the notorious
RFA
vote which said, "I oppose because I don't like X who supported"). That
one's more frustrating to me that anything else: the voter's immunity to
reason. "My vote's just as good as yours and I refuse to change it,
regardless to any decent information you may put forth."
Such votes should not be counted, and as far as I'm aware generally are
not counted (if I'm wrong, you can expect to see my newly-adminified
arse on Deletion Review rather a lot over the coming months). WP:NOT a
democracy, AFD:NOT a vote.
