The RFC *was* fuckheaded, but there might have been a

whatever arbitrary view he or she might have on deletion. Tony doesn't
think this is a problem, because (I get the impression-- please correct me
if I'm wrong here) that he's happy that he can close AFDs with an inflated
standard for consensus, because he wants more articles to be kept.
Whatever you think about the question of whether more articles need to be

No, this is a misrepresentation of what happened. He was RFCed for
