This serves no real purpose. Being at FAC and AfD at the same time is so rare that having a dedicated page for deletion tracking, and one that's not automated (and therefore likely to be forgotten before the next time this happens) makes little sense.

Keep Perhaps there is a bit of humor in this, but it also illustrates the diversity of our project in no uncertain terms. While there are those who view an article as something we wish to showcase as our best work, there are others who view an entire topic matter as un-encyclopedic and unsuitable for inclusion. If nothing else, it's a footnote in the history of a project which embarrasses such polar opposite viewpoints; and as such is worthy of documentation.

Keep The fact that there is on or more items in this list indicates a significant tension in Wikipedia processes, which should be recorded in some way, and this page is the logical place.

Keep - the "real purpose" is documenting that some articles have been simultaneously nominated for completely opposite processes, and there's nothing at all wrong with that. LadyofShalott01:40, 2 July 2012 (UTC)reply
Keep as a humour page as noted above. Documenting the irony of an article being nominated for opposite things (good enough to be a featured article candidate, but also not sufficient to be included here) strikes me as a good use of a page. PhantomSteve/
