Here is what I believe should be the new look of the Approval Nodelete. As you can see (hopefully), it makes clear all the valid reasons to consider a node and makes it easy for people to make the right choice. You can consider a node for both deletion (offtopic) and editing(unfrontpage). All the options with a text input field require values.

castaway I like your item #3, Nodes to Consider should just link to considered nodes (and maybe also list the consideration reason, and maybe also display current totals if a friar+ has already voted on a particular node), so that a voter has to visit the node in order to vote on it.

I run a Win32 PPM repository for perl 5.6.x and 5.8.x -- I take requests (README).
