 I'm confused about how you made your decision to delete the article.  According to my accounting, there were 20 votes to ""delete,"" 16 to ""keep,"" and there were 3 ""keeps"" from the first version of the AfD (i.e. editors who didn't re-cast their votes in this version); in addition, there was one ""delete or major rewrite"" and one ""leaning towards merge.""  How does that translate into a ""rough consensus?""  (There were 4 admins who votes to delete and 3 to keep).  To, me that doesn't sound like any kind of consensus; it's not even much of a threadbare majority.  If you had closed the vote a few days ago, you could have come up with the opposite result.  And how did you deduce that the article is NPOV etc.  I agree that the article needs work, but it has barely been given a chance, with AfDs breathing down its neck from the moment of conception (26 March).  I recently added references to the article, all from internationally recognized journals.  Last year, an entire special issue of the journal Social Epistemology was devoted to the subject of the article.  In addition, two books about the subject of the article were published by Routledge (and internationally recognized academic publisher) in the last two years.  (My last post, at the very end of the AfD, gives a flavor of the noteworthiness of the subject.)   

 I'm afraid I don't know what rules you were following and what your own compulsions were in deciding NPOV and OR, but I am very perplexed and disappointed.    

 :Consensus doesn't equal vote-counting, and I have interpreted the debate as delete. If you wish to contest this, please take it to DRV; this talk page will not be entertaining any more discussion on the matter. I won't be arguing about the close, but if you want me to restore the references, or similar tasks, I can. '  

 ::PS How do I recover the text of the article, especially the references I had added?  Thanks.  

 :::Daniel has (I think) replied to this.  Check his archives and the history of this page.   

 ::::I had already got it, and replied; I've dearchived it for now. I can give you the references, but not the text, I'm afraid; WP:CSD#G4 leaves me in a stickly situation. However, giving you the references and external links seems like a fair request. Where would you like me to copy them to; will  do? Cheers, '  

 Yes, that will be great.  I think the references I had added were in the ""Literature"" section.  Thanks.    
 : Done; gave you the Literature, See also and External links sections, as well as a couple of other references from the text - see my note. Hope that satisfies your request. Cheers, '  

 ::Thanks, Daniel, for the references and also for your post on my talk page.    
 :::No problems, and all the best ) Cheers, ' "
