 == Wikipedia article deleted without proper procedures == 

 List of pedophiles  listing only 5 people thus far who had their own Wikipedia articles and were famous for being convicted of this, was deleted by an administrator without going to AFD.  Those on the list are already in one category or another for Category:People convicted of child sexual abuse.  The discussion about this was quickly closed as well. Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard#List_of_pedophiles Can administrators just ignore the proper process of sending something to AFD, and just do as they wish now, silencing all opposition?  Is it alright to put convicted child sex offenders into categories but not alright to have a list of all those in these categories?  List provide far more information, and are more useful.  If the article was probably named People convicted of child sexual abuse, and listing those already in that category, would there be a problem with it?  "
