You closed Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Fahd Salih Sulayman Al Jutayli as "delete". I request you follow the example of some other administrators, and (1) make this a redirect to Saudi detainees at Guantanamo Bay; (2) restore the full revision history and talk page.

We are currently running a study on the effects of adding additional information to SuggestBot's suggestions. Participation in the study is voluntary. Should you wish to not participate in the study, or have questions or concerns, you can find contact information on the SuggestBot study page.
IMPORTANT CHANGES: We have modified the selection of articles SuggestBot suggests and altered the design to incorporate more information about the articles, as described in this explanation.
Note: All columns in this table are sortable, allowing you to rearrange the table so the articles most interesting to you are shown at the top. All images have mouse-over popups with more information.
We have changed the number of suggested articles and which categories they are selected from. The number of stubs has been greatly reduced, the number of articles needing sources doubled, and two new categories added (orphans and unencyclopaedic articles). We have also modified the layout of the suggestions and added sortable columns with various types of information about each article. The first two columns are:
The method we use to predict article quality also allows us to assess whether an article might need specific types of work in order to improve its quality. The work needed might not correspond to cleanup tags added to the article, since our method is not based on those. We have added five columns reflecting this work assessment, where a red X indicates improvement is needed. Placing your cursor over an X should give you a pop-up with a short description of the work needed. The five columns seek to answer the following five questions:
SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. We appreciate that you have signed up to receive suggestions regularly, your contributions make Wikipedia better — thanks for helping!
If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please let us know on SuggestBot's talk page. Regards from Nettrom (talk), SuggestBot's caretaker. -- SuggestBot (talk) 23:27, 20 August 2013 (UTC)
Hi Phantomsteve! You may not remember this close, as it was from May 2012. You closed as a merge to another article. In July 2012, a relatively inexperienced editor did almost the exact opposite - they redirected the destination article to the nominated article, and removed your merge tag from the nominated article. This was only just recently discovered. I have since reverted the redirected, and I have restored the merge tag as I do not believe any edits have happened in the intervening period that address the AfD concerns. I did want to bring this to your attention, though, as you were the closing admin, in case you had a different view. Singularity42 (talk) 12:05, 27 August 2013 (UTC)
