Hi All.

I was just on the CB when someone requested that one of his nodes be put up for consideration/deletion because he wasnt happy with its content and there were much better replies in the thread. So I put it up for consideration and in a few minutes there were enough votes and the node was reaped.

Now it occured to me that perhaps this type of thing could be automated. Howabout this:

If a node has no content, no replies and the title "Please Delete" it should be automatically reaped.

While there are of course much more important things to done in the monastery this was thought by several venerable members (chrisf, virtualsue) to be a good enough to post for discussion so here it is... :-)

(ha crazyinsomniac I beat you to it!)
