| Per ], ambiguous closes should be left to an administrator. This was one of those cases; as such I have reversed your closing. '''] ]''' 01:26, 7 December 2007 (UTC) | |||
| :In what way was it ambiguous? An Admin does not have any greater insight than other editors.] is a guideline and not an official policy and guidelines are malleable. My regards to you. ] 01:39, 7 December 2007 (UTC) | |||
| ::It was ambiguous in that it wasn't clearly obvious to anyone. While an admin does not neccesarily have any greater insight, their insight has been deemed trustworthy through RfA. In ambiguous cases, the closer's opinion and ability needs to be vetted, an admins have that. Non admins don't always. Also, just because it's a guideline and policy does not mean it can just be disregarded; it still represents consensus. '''] ]''' 01:58, 7 December 2007 (UTC) | |||
| :::Good answer, but remember that an admin is "vetted" primarily because of the powers of deletion and blocking they are entrusted with. Ambiguity by its very nature is ambiguous, where some might see ambiguity others might see a clear result. If you weren't a participant in the AfD how would you have closed it? ] 02:11, 7 December 2007 (UTC) | |||
| ::::They've been vetted by passing an RfA. How I would have closed it is neither here nor there, but I probably would have relisted it to see what other people thought of the sources that were there. '''] ]''' 04:15, 7 December 2007 (UTC) | |||

| Is there a particular conversation you need from my talk page? I'm curious as to why you are so interested in the restoration. Were we in the middle of an important discussion? ] ] 02:55, 13 December 2007 (UTC) | |||
| *Nope I've never posted on your talk page, I just think policies regarding deletion of User Talk pages should be followed. If a non-admin wanted their talk page deleted there would have to be a very good reason for allowing it, so it would be nice to see policy applied evenly to all. Nothing personal against you, just in the spirit of equality for the masses. ] (]) 03:01, 13 December 2007 (UTC) | |||
