Marcos Caballero – Speedy overturn deletion of redirect (and proceed to RfD, if needed). Yes, I closed the AfD but that's not what's being contested here, and consensus is clear among all involved. StarMississippi 12:08, 26 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

This article was deleted on March 18 per consensus at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Marcos Caballero. (I'm not contesting the AfD closure.) User:Frank Anchor recreated it on March 20 as a redirect to Sportivo Ameliano (the club Caballero played for), and GiantSnowman, who had !voted delete in the AfD, deleted the redirect without discussion a couple hours later. No reason was provided, but he explained here that he meant to cite WP:G6. Now, it may be that this wasn't an appropriate redirect, but I have a really hard time seeing how it could be "uncontroversial maintenance" to delete something that was created intentionally and for a good-faith reason—especially not when the deleting admin had taken a position in the AfD. This should be overturned, I think, with the understanding that anyone can send the redirect to RfD if they really think it's objectionable.

Overturn agree entirely with the nominator, especially given that the AfD did not have any significant discusison on the merits of a redirect. * Pppery *it has begun... 04:25, 25 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Restore redirect G6 certainly does not apply as it was not a “technical deletion.” This was a reasonable ATD which received no objections over nine days in the AFD. It can be sent to RFD if someone desires. FrankAnchor 04:32, 25 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Overturn the redirect deletion, this does not fall under G6 at all and the fact the AfD ended in Delete does not prevent a redirect from being created. Hut 8.5 08:29, 25 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Overturn out of process deletion. Got nothing to do with G6.—Alalch E. 09:16, 25 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Feel free to restore the redirect and close this discussion, and then I'll take to RFD instead, a more appropriate venue for this kind of discussion. Please ping me when done. GiantSnowman 09:37, 25 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@GiantSnowman: per Wikipedia:Deletion review#Speedy closes (applied analogously to challenged speedy deletions), you can simply close this DRV yourself as a "speedy overturn" and do all the other actions yourself. Taking that you don't stand by your action, and seeing that everyone !voted to overturn, everyone is now in mutual agreement, the matter not in dispute, and you are not considered to be involved in the relevant sense. —Alalch E. 12:47, 25 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Unless anybody else opposes such an action, that is what I will do. GiantSnowman 10:47, 26 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
