- November 2009
- Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion
- In the introduction, changed several instances of "articles" to "pages" or "pages or media". Removed: "To avoid speedy deletion, make sure that articles provide both content and context."
- Under the WP:CSD#G7 anchor, added: [If the sole author blanks a page other than a userspace page] "or category page", [this can be taken as a deletion request.]
- Under the WP:CSD#G8 anchor, removed: [This excludes any page that is useful to the project, and in particular: deletion discussions that are not logged elsewhere,] "user and" [ user talk pages, ...]
- Under the WP:CSD#A2 anchor, added: "This applies to articles having essentially the same content as an article on another Wikimedia project"
- Under the WP:CSD#A7 anchor, added: "This criterion does not apply to species of animals, only to individual animal(s)."
- New anchor, WP:CSD#A10: "Recently created article that duplicates an existing topic. A recently created article with no relevant page history that does not expand upon, detail or improve information within any existing article(s) on the subject, and where the title is not a plausible redirect. This does not include content forks, split pages or any article that expands or reorganizes an existing one or that contains referenced, mergeable material."
- Under the WP:CSD#R3 anchor, added: "This does not apply to articles and stubs that have been converted into redirects."
- The entire WP:CSD#Categories subsection is now transcluded (mirrored) from Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Speedy criteria.
- In WP:CSD#Non-criteria, added: "An article written in a foreign language or script. An article should not be speedily deleted just because it is not written in English. Instead it should be tagged with {{notenglish}} and listed at Wikipedia:Pages needing translation into English. It may be reconsidered after translation whether the article merits deletion, retention or improvement by means of a suitable tag."
- Wikipedia:Wikipedia is not a dictionary
- In WP:NOTDIC#Major differences, added: "One test is that an encyclopedia article's name can usually easily take many different equivalent forms, whereas a dictionary as a linguistic work that is about the words in the title, cannot usually be easily translated." Also added a reference.
