Rather than post dozens of messages individually, a good way to do this is to leave messages on the talkpages of ''selected'' related projects/articles - so, eg, [[Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Catholicism]] or [[Talk:Papabile]] would be good places. This will let a wide range of editors see it, and be much better at finding people who can offer informed judgement - the papabile talkpage seems to have discussed many of these specific issues already!

JamboQueen, please note that ''consensus is formed through the careful consideration, dissection and eventual synthesis of each side's arguments, and should not be calculated solely by the balance of votes.'' From your recent comment, one might come to think that you'd give undue weight to the [http://toolserver.org/~snottywong/cgi-bin/votecounter.cgi?page=Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/List_of_papabili_in_the_2013_papal_conclave AfD Vote Counter]. Concerning [[List of papabili in the 2013 papal conclave]], there just does not seem to be a clear consensus; counting "votes" or trying to get "more editors" to opt for having the article deleted is quite useless.

Hi JQ - please don't chase uninvolved admins individually about specific AFDs! We don't have any special editorial powers or perspectives, and you'd get a much better response by trying to raise it with people who have specific experience in the field.

Rather than post dozens of messages individually, a good way to do this is to leave messages on the talkpages of selected related projects/articles - so, eg, Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Catholicism or Talk:Papabile would be good places. This will let a wide range of editors see it, and be much better at finding people who can offer informed judgement - the papabile talkpage seems to have discussed many of these specific issues already!

JamboQueen, please note that consensus is formed through the careful consideration, dissection and eventual synthesis of each side's arguments, and should not be calculated solely by the balance of votes. From your recent comment, one might come to think that you'd give undue weight to the AfD Vote Counter. Concerning List of papabili in the 2013 papal conclave, there just does not seem to be a clear consensus; counting "votes" or trying to get "more editors" to opt for having the article deleted is quite useless.
