Zoe I did already check criteria for speedy deletion  And I checked it again just now   Can you please quote the passage where it says that original research is grounds for speedy deletion Can you plesae quote the passage that says administrators have the discretion to skip the step of one person placing a speedy tag or a  tag and a second person consummating the deletion  Can you please quote the passage that says you can delete an article without placing any tags or engaging in any discussion over what might turn out to be a relatively harmless problem How often do your ignore the recommendation in both WPCSD and WPCFD that we remember some wikipedians like me create articles in stages  You deleted this article within minutes of its creation I continue to believe your deletion was a breach of the recommended wikiprocedures  Zoe everyone makes mistakes  All wikipedia contributos should be willing to try to be humble enough to own up to them   But it is particularly important for administrators to be able to acknowledge mistakes because  they exercise more power than ordinary wikipedian and  they should be setting an example
