I think there's no real reason (to use an old example) of why every Pokemon needs its own page, while other more worthy topics get deleted.
But overall? I'm an inclusionist, if there's a consistency. Instead, the practical application is "included if it gels well with certain fads or obsessions, but more more critically considered if not".
Out of curiosity, though, I went back. Over a thousand edits to WP and of those, 12 on "Articles for Deletion". Of those I voted keep on 2, delete on 10.
Of those ten, five were Biographies of Living People, and three were Original Research - including "List of Problems Solved by MacGyver", "Suggested Reading Order for Discworld Novels", and "Star Trek Vessels by Size". The other two were "WP: Admins Willing To Make Difficult Blocks" and a sub-user page from a now disgraced admin that he used to collect "evidence" on users he disliked.
Using a stats tool I can see that on other edits my ratio of "Content Created to Content Removed" is 28.37:1. So I think I'm doing okay there, too.
