Cirt ( talk · contribs) closed the AfD as a "redirect", but chose to delete it entirely and then redirect it. This was unnecessary because the content was not libelous or harmful in any way. Wikipedia:Deletion policy#Redirection says nothing about deleting; Wikipedia:Deletion process#Process specifically says what to do when closing a "redirect" and that does not include any deletion. Deletion & redirection are mutually exclusive closes. Policy aside, when I was an admin, it never occurred to me that a 'redirect' might involve a 'delete', nor have I been involved with very many articles whose AfD closed as 'redirect' but got implemented as 'delete & redirect'. I am requesting that the article history be undeleted. (Note: I am not asking for the article to be restored; let the redirect remain at Human Instrumentality Project, but restore the history.) I did attempt to work with Cirt but he brushed me off, told me to take it to DRV, and stop talking to him. DRV is supposed to be about procedural issues - like I believe the above is - but I know content matters to some editors, so I will quickly address it. The charges of being unsourced are clearly false: a work of fiction is its own source, and the article had a third-party reference as well. The accusations of being unnotability I also believe to be false; Neon Genesis Evangelion is, besides being a multi-decade multi-billion-dollar franchise, the subject of endless discussion - academic & otherwise - and I provided Cirt with several possible sources on just HIP alone (I know my own personal collection of papers & books contains many more). -- Gwern (contribs) 22:31 28 January 2010 (GMT)

Administrator User:JodyB deleted this article on June 16, 2009. The deletion log entry says both WP:CSD#G6 -- and that the article was deleted following an AFD. However the "what links here" button doesn't show any AFDs. JodyB hasn't contriibuted to the wikipedia since June 2009. There is a captive, named Abdul Majid Khan, in the Bagram Theater Internment Facility the DoD asserts was a "Taliban financier" and "IED facilitator". I would like to request userification of the article's full history, and talk page, if any, to User:Geo Swan/compare/Abdul Majid Khan. If anyone can figure out where the AFD that JodyB mentioned is, I'd appreciate them sharing that. Cheers! Geo Swan ( talk) 16:37, 28 January 2010 (UTC)
