criteria for deletion 
I'm just wondering, what is the criteria for deleting an article put up for discussion for deletion. Is it the majority vote? Or is it judging the article for its own worth? (  )
When an article is put up for deletion and discussed, the participants in the deletion debate judge the article on its worth/merits.  When an uninvolved administrator closes a deletion discussion, they weigh the merits of the comments put forward, giving weight to factors such as the number of  users basing their !vote on a particular factor, etc. '''''' talk
