This is an article which serves one purpose, which is to repeat the phrase "Not Allocated" exactly 1,452 times. Between March 31, 2021 and April 25, 2023, Demonguy1990 brought this article from an average 19,013 bytes to a staggering 805,444 bytes nearly singlehandedly, earning this article the title of the second longest article on Wikipedia currently. I see no reason to oppose the exclusion of 780,000 bytes of the same repeated phrase, but if anybody else does please lodge your complaint below. WhichUserAmI06:17, 19 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
the listing was not on the Legislation.gov.uk website so not allocated is used because the listed is not there, i did not create the article i just listed the ones that are not on the article (the article is part of the British Law template same with List of Statutory Instruments of the United Kingdom 1947-2023, List of Acts of the Parliament of the United Kingdom 1801-1809 -) all you seem to be doing is Nitpicking the word 'Not Allocated' In the Articles (btw Not Allocated where used before i used the Term in earlier articles as the Law is not on the Legislation.gov.uk it don't mean the law never existed it just means the Law is not available on the website (it usually means its not in force anymore or was not added to the database) seems more like you added the deletion template to nit pick your the same member that keeps adding the source article to articles even when the source is right there to see.

@Demonguy1990 From what I was able to understand, you're alleging that my concern for the weight of the encyclopedia, and the fact that the second largest page on it should not have that title only because of the words "Not Allocated" (see WP:SPAM) is 'nitpicking'. This is not the case, I simply request that the article be kept to a reasonable size without repeating unnecessary content, and I don't know what you're referring to about source articles. Wouldn't it be more productive, save space and make it somewhat easier to read if all instances of "Not Applicable" and their corresponding laws were removed from each table, and instead a disclaimer were placed at the header of the article informing the user that any missing laws can be assumed to be not applicable? Something along the lines of:
This list is incomplete. Any spaces in the sequential order of the list of rules and orders should be assumed to be "Not Applicable". This could be due to the law no longer being in use, or it simply not being added to the relevant databases.
Additionally, I apologize for my initial attempt to have the article deleted. I was unaware of the true ratio of repeated content to actual informative content, and now knowing that I believe this article would be better suited split into multiple time periods, where this article would then serve as a disambiguation page to direct the reader to the time period they are interested in. This would allow more accessibility to relevant content, with the rationale that most users who would be looking for rules and orders in Scotland are likely more interested in recent rules and orders than those published in 1930.
