A suggestion

While your view is welcomed at AfD, I think you'll find it will be taken more notice of if you give reasons for it. I do a lot at AfD, and probably go on a bit too much (and get rather rude at times), and I know that reasons are valued. Argued about, but valued. It's not a head count, but a discussion. Sometimes a bit of searching can save an article that has a string of 'Deletes' on it. If you find it's all been said, use 'per' whoever says it best from your viewpoint, or 'per nom' it the nomination simply says it all. (Don't be as rude as I sometimes am until you work out when and why I'm doing it ...) Anyway, welcome again. Peridon (talk) 15:36, 31 January 2011 (UTC)

Aye, seconded. You may want to read over Wikipedia:Arguments to avoid in deletion discussions, specifically "WP:Not notable". -- œ^™ 22:20, 31 January 2011 (UTC)
