Wikipedia:Deletion review (DRV) is meant to be an appeal for mistaken or misguided deletions. While the process works a good deal of the time, there is no guarantee that the process will result in the correct outcome - overturning a speedy deletion that did not meet
speedy deletion criteria, deletion of an article that was kept improperly at
articles for deletion, etc. While some mistakes are expected, the level of error at DRV is much lower than the actual level, and this page is intended to be a collection of such.
Reviews
For each daily log, I'll link to the log, note the number of reviews, and note the number incorrect, with a second bullet point explaining. Withdrawals, "consent of closing/deleting admin" closures, improper forums (challenging a redirect, for example) and prod undeletion requests are not included in these counts.
Jeopardy! in popular culture - although relisted, was done so because of "no decision." Clear error in original AfD closure in terms of
COI and AfD consensus.
File:Airforce-ti.jpg - faulty deletion of public domain image based on poor OTRS request that was granted. Erring on the side of caution is good if no one else cares, maybe, but not a discussion for DRV, and the deletion was improper.
Brian Peppers in popular culture - No violations, no policy issues, and banks on the mistake deletion from a month earlier. Making the same mistake twice is still a mistake.
Subcategories of Category:Gaelic Athletic Association All Star Awards (football), Category:Gaelic Athletic Association All Star Awards (hurling) - a mess of categorization, nom was 100% correct.
