And this one is now pending deletion:

The first wasn't even created? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Log?type=create&user=&...

That first one was not only never deleted, it was never even created in the first place. You've been misled by a redlink.

And the second is being discussed, with at minimum 3 more days of discussion to go. It isn't pending anything yet.
