Add links to stupid, incorrect, or otherwise unwanted page titles to the list below (or use the Vote feature) so an admin can find them, check to see that they are indeed not legitimate pages. If the page should be deleted, an admin will, and the link removed from this page (it will show up on the Wikipedia:Deletion log). If the page should not be deleted, an admin will remove the link from this page. Page titles should stay listed for a minimum of a week before a decision is made.

If the content of a page-to-be-deleted exists on some different page, please indicate that, somehow, on the page-to-be-deleted (either by redirecting it to the correctly titled page, or, better for our purposes, putting in a link to it). To facilitate checking that a "page title to be deleted" really ought to be deleted, please don't redirect such pages to page titles to be deleted.

As a general rule, don't delete pages you nominate for deletion. Let someone else do it.

Please review Wikipedia policy on permanent deletion of pages before adding to this page. In the past, about half of the titles added to this page were not deleted. In particular, do not add page titles of stubs that at least have a decent defintion and might in the future become articles. There's no reason to delete those (see Wikipedia:Find or fix a stub). Also, please don't list pages on this page that can easily and sensibly be redirected to another page. E.g., a page called Hume can be easily and sensibly redirected to David Hume; presidant (a misspelling) can be redirected to president; etc. (Even misspellings can be caught by search engines and provide Wikipedia perfectly relevant traffic!) Similarly, pages in the wrong namespace (for example, user pages in the main namespace), can be redirected and should not be deleted if there are still old links to them.

Discussion about the merits of deleting a page listed here should take place on wikipedia talk:Votes for deletion.

NOTE to Wiki Administrators: Simply deleting a page does not automatically delete its talk page or any subpages. Please delete these pages first, and then the main page. Also, if you delete a page, remove if from this list as well.

- See image pages for reasons. -phma
Flag of Belgium
- Can anyone explain me why this needs a separate page rather than using an :Image link?
Stabilisation of the Western Territories (Content moved to meta - page ready for deletion)
- The text has already been removed because it was extremely POV, probably irrepairably so. The only link to the page has also been removed because of POV. Andre Engels
Old and In the Way
- Cut-n-paste from copyrighted source. --Brion 20:45 Aug 24, 2002 (PDT)
Galactic Republic (Star Wars)
- Copyright violation -- from StarWars.com no less. Please do not delete this page for a few days. I want to make sure the original poster sees my message. --mav 15:53 Aug 26, 2002 (PDT)
Wikipedia Projects
- Except for a link from a soon to be deleted page this is an orphan that no longer is used. --mav
Zatre, Talk:Zatre
- Looks like a copyright violation. --Brion 01:29 Aug 26, 2002 (PDT)
- As far as I can tell, the uploader is unrelated to the copyright holder. The uploader is in Vienna, Austria; gamereport.com is in Seattle, Washington. -phma
KPMG
- Only an explanation of the acronym - which still tells me nothing about what it actually means. Andre Engels Aug 26
Unification Church and Jesus
- Unless someone intends to extend this piece much further in the foreseeable future, it would better be added to the existing Unification Church or Unification Church/Theology page. Andre Engels Aug 26
Image:Cftc_01_jtwarmup.jpg and Image:Cftc_02_jt.jpg
- Image pages, but the images seem to be unfindable. Andre Engels Aug 26
United States of America/OldPage
- Jeronimo 00:26 Aug 27, 2002 (PDT)
  - Before it is deleted some version control needs to take place -- that page and the various CIA pages were being edited at the same time by different people. In some places the "old" page is more currently edited and in others the former CIA subpages are. --mav
Gioacchino Rossini Anecdotes
- Jeronimo 05:07 Aug 27, 2002 (PDT)
Kilo Ali
- Looks like nothing but a link to someone's personal page. -- April
  - Actually, it is not a personal page, but a fanpage for a rapper. Nevertheless, I am in favor of deletion because "Wikipedia is not a web index"
Composer/B, Composer/G and Composer/T
- Orphans with all their content now on Composer. (note that Composer/S needs to stay for the moment, cos I've not moved the content to composer yet) --Camembert
Image:M1.m & his car.JPG, Image:Hammad.JPG, Image:Sudan3.jpg, Image:Sudan2.jpg, Image:Sudan1.jpg, Image:Hammad.JPG, Image:M1.m & his car.JPG, Image:Sudan3.jpg, Image:Sudan2.jpg, Image:Sudan1.jpg, [[:Image:]]
- All contributed by User:Tarik, not used. Some may be useful but especially the Hammad and M1.m & his car picture appear to be more personal picture. Jeronimo 01:20 Aug 28, 2002 (PDT)

-***'''You folks are so quick to kill!'''.  If you haven't heard of it, it's "rubbish" and "makes no sense".  Have you heard of [[Google]]?  Granted the article isn't much as it stands, but the [[Arts and Crafts Movement]] was founded by [[William Morris]] following the writings of [[John Ruskin]] and was the major English aesthetic movement of the last half of the 19th century, calling for simplicity and clear function and leading the reaction against Victorian overdecoration and also against industrial production as opposed to hand crafts. It was a foundation for such other movements, that maybe you have heard of and don't consider rubbish, as [[Art Nouveau]], [[Art Deco]], [[Bauhaus]].  It influenced architecture, crafts, art, and town planning.  [[User:Ortolan88|Ortolan88]] 14:58 Aug 28, 2002 (PDT)
