There most certainly is precedent. Otherwise, the items would have been
restored.

If polytarp or naftee found a way to start deleting items, would you hold
their restoration to a membership vote? Something tells me you'd join a chorus
of users decrying them as "vandals". (Apologies to polytarp and naftee, but
you're the bad boys du jour here)

I didn't mean to suggest that Marcus was the end-all-be-all voice of how
conferencing systems operate. Either I wasn't clear about that, or you
misinterpreted what I said. Though, I'd be quite interested in his take on
it.
