Your speedy deletion nomination of Mob Wars

Just a couple of pointers about WP:CSD eligibility and tagging.

• A7 only applies if the article does not assert notability and in the words of the policy "does not apply to any article that makes any credible claim of significance or importance even if the claim is not supported by a reliable source". In this instance notability was asserted and more than that was supported by reliable sources.
• Any editor (other than the creator of the article) may remove a speedy deletion tag as Mr Vernon did and the appropriate response to that would have been to WP:PROD or WP:AFD. Just undoing his edit was inappropriate and out of policy.
• The article was ineligible for speedy tagging in the first place as a speedy on the same grounds had already declined a few months ago. Again the appropriate action would have been to PROD of AFD. You should always check the article history before nominating for speedy regardless of its age.

Speedy deletion is both an extremely vital but also potentially extremely damaging element of Misplaced Pages and any nomination must be carefully considered and researched before placing a tag. If in doubt don't do it. Consider a WP:PROD or WP:AFD instead - unless an article is a copyvio or an attack page having it hang around for another five days is not going to harm anyone and if such caution prevents an editor being disillusioned and leaving the project or if it prevents a valid article being deleted then all the better.
