Abstain?
editHi. I noticed that you twice voted "abstain" on articles up for deletion. You should be aware that the deletion process is built around discussion and consensus, not strict voting. Your contribution to AFD should be in the form of an argument, preferably firmly based in existing policy and precedent; you can endorse someone else's argument, as well. But there's basically no point to voting "abstain", especially the confusing "weak abstain". These tell us nothing that helps build consensus. In future, try to make your votes in the form of a keep argument or a delete argument, or add something labeled comment or reply. --Dhartung | Talk 18:57, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
