Proposed Deletions 

I answered your query on my talk page.  I think you may want to read the article wp:prod as it clearly explains the criteria for prod.  You will note, there are 3 methods of deletion:
1 Speedy, which has strict criteria as it is the most powerful, 
2 AFD which involves a mandatory 5 day discussion during which time no user is permitted to remove the AFD notice
3Prod By far the weakest proposal for deletion as ANY editor may remove the tag and the article may not be tagged again with the PROD template.  The deletion proposal ends at the hand of one editor.  Any editor may end the proposal during the minimum 5 day waiting period.

My perspective, if it's not verifiable it shouldn't be in an encyclopedia.  I would rather read a stub that has sources than a large detailed article that provides no evidence.  As an editor it's my choice if I want to try and improve an article or flag it for someone else to consider.  Please respect my freedom to choose.
