Hello, thanks for reviewing the deletion request for Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Olives and olive trees in Israel and Judaism. Can you please clarify why did you think there was no consensus to merge? Makeandtoss (talk) 10:29, 20 July 2024 (UTC)
- Because there were three "merge" opinions (counting the nomination as not disagreeing with a merger) and three "keep" opinions, including two made after the merger proposal. Sandstein 15:51, 20 July 2024 (UTC)
- The second keep might have been unfounded since it was made by a non-confirmed user. Third keep was on the condition of merger. Either way closures are not entirely dependent on a headcount, as keep opinions did not demonstrate how this fulfilled WP’s notability guideline relating to significant coverage in RS. Also, it might have been premature as barely two days have passed and consensus had not yet fully formed. I would ask for your kind reconsideration, or at least relisting to get a clearer consensus.

- I disagree; the second "keep" was by a registered user (albeit with a poor rationale), and in any case, even unregistered users can comment in AfDs. The third "keep" did not propose a merger (except that the said that some content shouuld be moved elsewhere). The AfD ran for the full 7 days. Given the number of views expressed, a relisting was not called for. You can continue to propose a merger on the article talk page, which is the proper place for it, not an AfD.
