Content deletion is an important mechanism for maintaining quality in online communities. In Wikipedia, deletion is guided by complex procedures. Controversial cases (~12% [4]) are sent to special community discussions called "Articles for Deletion" (AfD). Deciding the outcome of these deletion debates can be difficult. Further, deletion seems to be a point of friction, which demotivates new editors without sufficiently informing them about Wikipedia's values and standards.
