I know they prevent a lot of spam and self-promotion, but they may be too aggressive sometimes.
otability / significance requirements often boil down to "I haven't heard of it before, so it must not be significant." -

Calling out the deletionist on the Talk page is probably the best idea here. Particularly emphasise the uniqueness of the conference and you should have a case.
