One must edit the wiki page for the deletion proposal:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Votes_for_deletion/Proactionary_Principle

and write a "Keep" vote signing with his/her username and date.

So a wikipedia user account is necessary. Also, votes from just-registered
accounts are suspicious, becuase usually it's just someone who is creating
multiple accounts for himself to have more votes. Often such votes are
discarded.

One such vote is already on the page. Since the majority of the votes is
already on the Keep side, and that a 2/3 majority is needed to delete a
page, I would suggest to refrain from voting now to avoid giving a bad
impression.
