Well, here's a serious proposal to encourage
discussion:
I propose <sigh> yet another level of bureaucracy -- a Deletion Review
Board (which would have nothing whatsoever to do with the useless
WP:VfU). The Review Board would be empowered to penalize those who
nominate and those who vote support such egregiously careless and
/damaging/ deletions. Deletions of unpublished garage bands can
continue just as they do today.
The penalties would be limited, perhaps to simply to "time-outs" of
various lengths -- prohibitions from participating in any *fD process --
and would primarily serve as a way of getting the attention of the
offenders that /they are damaging the encyclopedia/ with their
thoughtless assumptions of bad faith and personal attacks. Any offenses
too great for that level of penalty would be dealt with by the ArbComm.
I would appreciate discussion of this suggestion, particularly by Jimbo
and my fellow ArbCommies. Starting question: should we bash on it here,
or take it to a Meta page?
So no action against those who vote to keep stuff that should be
deleted? Remeber a keep vote is worth more than a delete vot on AFD.

No, no action. An erroneous "keep" is harms no one, since copyvios,
attacks and libel, and similar damaging material are not subject to
Votes for Deletion.
