Template:New York cities and mayors of 100,000 population ( talk| | history| logs| links| watch) ( XfD| restore)

I am nominating this userfied version of Template:New York cities and mayors of 100,000 population for deletion review because it was closed as consensus to delete when no such consensus existed (4 delete, 3 keep). This is part of a larger pattern of problematic closes by Fastily ( talk · contribs) that led to Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard#WP:TFD deletions by admin User:Fastily that was mentioned at Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/2012-02-20/Discussion report with many people commenting that WP:RFC/U would be appropriate. Although many people noted that Fastily is a voluminous closer and a few problems were inevitable for that reason, I did not notice anyone other than the nominator endorse his closure decisions that I pointed out at WP:AN.

• Overturn to keep. There was no consensus to delete, and no reason to delete. The deleting admin did not explain, and to me the assumption when one closes without obvious consensus is that one cannot explain, because it was a supervote. There is in an instance like this no real policy based reason either way--it's a judgment of whether it is sufficiently useful, which is a matter of opinion and cannot be decided except by consensus. If a strong minority think a navigational device useful, it should be kept unless there's a real argument otherwise (such as being misleading) Not every navigational device is expected to be useful to everybody. Myself, I dislike most navigational templates of this sort, but that is no reason why I should want to delete them if others find them of value. DGG ( talk ) 06:17, 27 February 2012 (UTC) reply
