Miscellany for deletion (MfD) is a place where Wikipedians decide what should be done with problematic pages in the namespaces which aren't covered by other specialized deletion discussion areas. Items sent here are usually discussed for seven days; then they are either deleted by an administrator or kept, based on community consensus as evident from the discussion, consistent with policy, and with careful judgment of the rough consensus if required.

Filtered versions of the page are available at

Information on the process

What may be nominated for deletion here:

  • Pages not covered by other XFD venues, including pages in these namespaces: Draft:, Help:, Portal:, MediaWiki:, Wikipedia: (including WikiProjects), User:, TimedText: and the various Talk: namespaces, and the MOS namespace (in the unlikely event it ever contains a page that is not a redirect)
  • Userboxes (regardless of namespace)
  • Any other page, that is not in article space, where there is dispute as to the correct XfD venue.

Requests to undelete pages deleted after discussion here, and debate whether discussions here have been properly closed, both take place at Wikipedia:Deletion review, in accordance with Wikipedia's undeletion policy.

Before nominating a page for deletion

Before nominating a page for deletion, please consider these guidelines:

Deleting pages in your own userspace
  • If you want to have your own userpage or a draft you created deleted, there is no need to list it here; simply tag it with {{db-userreq}} or {{db-u1}}. If you wish to clear your user talk page or sandbox, just blank it.
Duplications in draftspace?
  • Duplications in draftspace are usually satisfactorily fixed by redirection. If the material is in mainspace, redirect the draft to the article, or a section of the article. If multiple draft pages on the same topic have been created, tag them for merging. See WP:SRE.
Deleting pages in other people's userspace
  • Consider explaining your concerns on the user's talk page with a personal note or by adding {{subst:Uw-userpage}} ~~~~  to their talk page. This step assumes good faith and civility; often the user is simply unaware of the guidelines, and the page can either be fixed or speedily deleted using {{db-userreq}}.
  • Take care not to bite newcomers – sometimes using the {{subst:welcome}} or {{subst:welcomeg}} template and a pointer to WP:UP would be best first.
  • Problematic userspace material is often addressed by the User pages guidelines including in some cases removal by any user or tagging to clarify the content or to prevent external search engine indexing. (Examples include copies of old, deleted, or disputed material, problematic drafts, promotional material, offensive material, inappropriate links, 'spoofing' of the MediaWiki interface, disruptive HTML, invitations or advocacy of disruption, certain kinds of images and image galleries, etc) If your concern relates to these areas consider these approaches as well, or instead of, deletion.
  • User pages about Wikipedia-related matters by established users usually do not qualify for deletion.
  • Articles that were recently deleted at AfD and then moved to userspace are generally not deleted unless they have lingered in userspace for an extended period of time without improvement to address the concerns that resulted in their deletion at AfD, or their content otherwise violates a global content policy such as our policies on Biographies of living persons that applies to any namespace.
Policies, guidelines and process pages
  • Established pages and their sub-pages should not be nominated, as such nominations will probably be considered disruptive, and the ensuing discussions closed early. This is not a forum for modifying or revoking policy. Instead consider tagging the policy as {{historical}} or redirecting it somewhere.
  • Proposals still under discussion generally should not be nominated. If you oppose a proposal, discuss it on the policy page's discussion page. Consider being bold and improving the proposal. Modify the proposal so that it gains consensus. Also note that even if a policy fails to gain consensus, it is often useful to retain it as a historical record, for the benefit of future editors.
WikiProjects and their subpages
  • It is generally preferable that inactive WikiProjects not be deleted, but instead be marked as {{WikiProject status|inactive}}, redirected to a relevant WikiProject, or changed to a task force of a parent WikiProject, unless the WikiProject was incompletely created or is entirely undesirable.
  • WikiProjects that were never very active and which do not have substantial historical discussions (meaning multiple discussions over an extended period of time) on the project talk page should not be tagged as {{historical}}; reserve this tag for historically active projects that have, over time, been replaced by other processes or that contain substantial discussion (as defined above) of the organization of a significant area of Wikipedia. Before deletion of an inactive project with a founder or other formerly active members who are active elsewhere on Wikipedia, consider userfication.
  • Notify the main WikiProject talk page when nominating any WikiProject subpage, in addition to standard notification of the page creator.
Alternatives to deletion
  • Normal editing that doesn't require the use of any administrator tools, such as merging the page into another page or renaming it, can often resolve problems.
  • Pages in the wrong namespace (e.g. an article in Wikipedia namespace), can simply be moved and then tag the redirect for speedy deletion using {{db-g6|rationale= it's a redirect left after a cross-namespace move}}. Notify the author of the original article of the cross-namespace move.
Alternatives to MfD
  • Speedy deletion If the page clearly satisfies a "general" or "user" speedy deletion criterion, tag it with the appropriate template. Be sure to read the entire criterion, as some do not apply in the user space.

Please familiarize yourself with the following policies

How to list pages for deletion

Please check the aforementioned list of deletion discussion areas to check that you are in the right area. Then follow these instructions:

Instructions on listing pages for deletion:

To list a page for deletion, follow this three-step process: (replace PageName with the name of the page, including its namespace, to be deleted)

Note: Users must be logged in to complete step II. An unregistered user who wishes to nominate a page for deletion should complete step I and post their reasoning on Wikipedia talk:Miscellany for deletion with a notification to a registered user to complete the process.

I.
Edit PageName:

Enter the following text at the top of the page you are listing for deletion:

{{mfd|1={{subst:FULLPAGENAME}}}}
for a second or subsequent nomination use {{mfdx|2nd}}

or

{{mfd|GroupName}}
if nominating several similar related pages in an umbrella nomination. Choose a suitable name as GroupName and use it on each page.
If the nomination is for a userbox or similarly transcluded page, use {{subst:mfd-inline}} so as to not mess up the formatting for the userbox.
Use {{subst:mfd-inline|GroupName}} for a group nomination of several related userboxes or similarly transcluded pages.
  • Please include in the edit summary the phrase
    Added MfD nomination at [[Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/PageName]]
    replace PageName with the name of the page that is up for deletion.
  • Please don't mark your edit summary as a minor edit.
  • Check the "Watch this page" box if you would like to follow the page in your watchlist. This may help you to notice if your MfD tag is removed by someone.
  • Save the page
II.
Create its MfD subpage.

The resulting MfD box at the top of the page should contain the link "this page's entry"

  • Click that link to open the page's deletion discussion page.
  • Insert this text:
{{subst:mfd2| pg={{subst:#titleparts:{{subst:PAGENAME}}||2}}| text=Reason why the page should be deleted}} ~~~~
replacing Reason... with your reasons why the page should be deleted and sign the page. Do not substitute the pagename, as this will occur automatically.
  • Consider checking "Watch this page" to follow the progress of the debate.
  • Please use an edit summary such as
    Creating deletion discussion page for [[PageName]]

    replacing PageName with the name of the page you are proposing for deletion.
  • If appropriate, inform members of the most relevant WikiProjects through one or more "deletion sorting lists". Then add a {{subst:delsort|<topic>|<signature>}} template to the nomination, to insert a note that this has been done.
  • Save the page.
III.
Add a line to MfD.

Follow   this edit link   and at the top of the list add a line:

{{subst:mfd3| pg=PageName}}
Put the page's name in place of "PageName".
  • Include the discussion page's name in your edit summary like
    Added [[Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/PageName]]
    replacing PageName with the name of the page you are proposing for deletion.
  • Save the page.
  • If nominating a page that has been nominated before, use the page's name in place of "PageName" and add
{{priorxfd|PageName}}
in the nominated page deletion discussion area to link to the previous discussions and then save the page using an edit summary such as
Added [[Template:priorxfd]] to link to prior discussions.
  • If nominating a page from someone else's userspace, notify them on their main talk page.
    For other pages, while not required, it is generally considered civil to notify the good-faith creator and any main contributors of the miscellany that you are nominating. To find the main contributors, look in the page history or talk page of the page and/or use TDS' Article Contribution Counter or Wikipedia Page History Statistics. For your convenience, you may add

    {{subst:mfd notice|PageName}} ~~~~

    to their talk page in the "edit source" section, replacing PageName with the pagename. Please use an edit summary such as

    Notice of deletion discussion at [[Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/PageName]]

    replacing PageName with the name of the nomination page you are proposing for deletion.
  • If the user has not edited in a while, consider sending the user an email to notify them about the MfD if the MfD concerns their user pages.
  • If you are nominating a WikiProject, please post a notice at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Council, in addition to the project's talk page and the talk pages of the founder and active members.

User:Austhistory99/Indigenous Australian Inter-tribal Wars and Violence (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs) – (View MfD)​

page is a draft by now blocked user. Based on original research and novel interpretations that are completely out of step with mainstream scholarship on the subject, this draft was clearly created as an attack on Aboriginal Australians - It's essentially racist in its tone, aims to present Aboriginal Australians in worst possible light, to make them look like savages by massively exaggerating the severity and extent of what we know about inter-tribal violence. The creator of this draft is now indef-blocked for blatant COI and advocacy issues which amounted to a racist attack on an Aboriginal author. This kind of racist attack page doesn't belong anywhere on wikipedia Bacondrum 20:49, 31 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Depends on how the content is framed, one can write an essay or an attack piece and attach many great sources without reflecting them accurately, absent of the broader mainstream and contemporary view. Especially when dealing with Aboriginal Australians, historians and anthropologists need to be considered very carefully. This is a country with a profound history of racism. Regardless, this draft article is a load of racist nonsense, we have no comparable article on Wikipedia, Aboriginal people should not be singlesd out in such a manner, presenting only the most negative claims available, mainstream contemporary scholarship does not treat this subject in such a manner and it is fair to say that doing so is bald faced racism.

And, yes, I understand the "Don't be a spoilsport, let people who drink Coke express themselves" feeling, but that's really not the issue here. If we allow this, then what is to stop another, less-known beverage company from looking at this and seeing in our allowing it the potential for a perfect little viral campaign to promote their product?

Comment from page creator: I'm fine with deleting the page. When I first got the deletion discussion notice, I didn't even remember why I created it in the first place. I did a little digging and found out that I created it to get rid of a red link when I was updating the featured article statistics page in October 2015 (see [1]). AmericanLemming (talk) 21:44, 30 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
The red links will be a bit wonky in a way that works. Some of the zero entries for the demoted column at WP:FAS are blue, because kept and delisted are both stored in the same file, so blue-linked 0s mean there was at least one Keep but no Delists, while red-linked 0s indicate no FAR activity at all for that month ... and I think that’s a good distinction to know. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 22:01, 30 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep per WP:NMFD; no need to list such things here. — Godsy (TALKCONT) 12:47, 29 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep We can have articles on products that haven't been officially confirmed, as long as they have been the subject of coverage in reliable sources, so in itself that isn't a reason for deletion. The entire point of draftspace is to give people a place to work on articles out of the public eye, so writing a draft about a future game in the franchise is OK. The article is a bit WP:CRYSTALLY at the moment, but that could be fixed with editing as more sources turn up, and this does appear to be a genuine attempt at writing an article. 86.23.109.101 (talk) 15:56, 29 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The following are draft BLPs in various states of preparation or un-preparation of Karl Lillrud, Previous draft BLPs were already deleted in Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Draft:Karl Lillrud

There is also a sockpuppet investigation of these draft BLPs. These may be multiple paid editors working for one client, which is meatpuppetry (and which is poorly defined), or these may be sockpuppetry. However, sockpuppetry is not relevant to the question of misuse of draft space, in order to create an article about a non-notable person by stealth. Robert McClenon (talk) 00:20, 29 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

One of these, Razasardar, was submitted and rejected. The rest were unsubmitted, and are in various degrees of incompletion. Robert McClenon (talk) 00:51, 29 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. User:Klillrud/sandbox may be Karl Lillrud's autobiography, but a userspace autobiography is acceptable. It is sourced. Forms of WP:Sockpuppetry are not a deletion reason unless voiced by someone qualified at WP:SPI, what you are doing is background unqualified clerking of SPI. Your nomination is a lot of WP:ABF without citing evidence. If the other pages have better cases for deletion, please list them separately with the better reasons explained. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 01:22, 29 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete all. No indication that any of these is an autobiography, and Lillrud has been hiring people since (at least) 2019 to create an article about him; this post from today talks about a "deadline" to get an article about Lillrud published. Even if one of these accounts should be Lillrud himself, WP:UPNO would apply since all the seven accounts are SPAs, only concerned with creating drafts about Lillrud. This is an individual who is not notable so none of these drafts could ever become an article, and given that Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Draft:Karl Lillrud ended with several drafts being speedy deleted, there is no reason to let these languish in userspace. --bonadea contributions talk 17:57, 29 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete all as blatant promotional paid editing per the deletion log for Draft:Karl Lillrud, the speedy deletions at the other MfD, the lack of any other contributions of these accounts, the open admission of paid editing as pointed out by bonadea, and the fact that two of these have been rejected. — csc-1 18:16, 29 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Draft article in user namespace of blocked user; not edited since 2014 Peter James (talk) 21:08, 28 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. Plausibly notable or mergable. Blocking users does not include clearing out their subpages. —SmokeyJoe (talk) 22:00, 28 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    It wouldn't be accepted if submitted as a draft, and would have been deleted years ago. Whether subpages are deleted depends on the user; in this case they were disruptive, using sockpuppets, and probably evading a block. If an account is blocked it doesn't make the subpages exempt from deletion. Peter James (talk) 22:36, 28 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    Sure, but you need a nomination rationale better than "blocker user". I don't see a reason not to leave this here for someone to pick up. A quick search on "Walmartsucks" shows interesting stuff, google suppression of criticism of major brands, trademark issues, etc, involving multiple big brands. Unlikely to be notable on its own, but it might fit in a larger topic. G13 was implemented due to the tens of thousands of unreviewable drafts including BLP and copyright violations. I have reviewed this userpage and decided there is no such issue here. It is not an AfC page, and we do not routinely delete usersubpages for being old and unedited. The user may return, and anther user may find it by the title and make use of it. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 23:11, 28 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - I respectfully disagree with SmokeyJoe. We don't need dung that has been sitting around for seven years from blocked users that never had a purpose. Robert McClenon (talk) 00:36, 29 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • You are not being respectful to a reasonable standard. This draft is not comparable to dung, presumably you mean "animal feces". It is a serious topic, serious legal issue, censorship issues. It is serious references. Many things that might be useful and will be lost if this is deleted. "Never had a purpose"? Disagree, this draft fits will the purpose of userspace, to build up material that might add to mainspace. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 01:16, 29 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep or draftify. This is most of a reasonable article and I wouldn't mind working on it. jp×g 05:10, 1 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Draftify (Wikipedia:WikiProject Abandoned Drafts#Stale userspace drafts #8); WP:User pages allows it for long-term inactive users' pages. Peter James (talk) 20:40, 5 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Retain and oppose draftification because of G13, which was expanded after some of the above guidance was incepted, and because of the systematic failure of the draftspace (i.e. it is not much more likely to be discovered and expanded there than where it is at). The only thing that will very likely occur from draftification is deletion (WP:DUD). Secondly, there is no need to delete this over that of an older draft in the userspace of any other blocked user; thus, I oppose their deletion on a class basis. — Godsy (TALKCONT) 11:29, 17 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • Although there's no specific time limit for drafts in user namespace it is not intended to be somewhere to keep pages permanently - five years is long enough as the user is inactive and unlikely to resume editing from that account.

User:Theplugsboy/sandbox (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs) – (View MfD)​

Once again, a collection of placement tables for imaginary "fantasy football" versions of television reality competitions. Although there are no specific identifiers of exactly which shows are being spoofed, two of the tables are RuPaul's Drag Race format (i.e. highs and lows and Miss Congenialities) and filled with names that do seem strongly redolent of drag queens (including, but not limited to, a couple that are right-on-the-nose expies of real RPDR contestants) -- while the third is straight-up Big Brother (with "Villa" allusions suggestive of the Hungarian version specifically). The page has also been used in the past to create an imaginary teenagers' season of Big Brother UK.
As always, sandbox space is not a free playground for users to make up imaginary stuff for the lulz -- it is for working on stuff that's meant to be returned to mainspace, such as draft versions of real articles about real things, not for playing fantasy football with stuff that's happening only in your imagination.

  • Could you clarify why you've nominated this for deletion? To submit the draft all you need to do is add {{subst:submit}} to the top of the page in the source editor.

  • Weak keep: I'm hesitant to cast an unconditional keep !vote for an unsourced BLP, but an unsourced draft BLP is a very different thing ("drafts are not checked for notability or sanity"). Presumably, the author had planned to add sources, and as the subject appears notable anyone planning to pick it up would be able to do so. The dangers of an unsourced BLP relate to their presence in the mainspace, where they're accessible to readers and search engines; draftspace is a black box. The deletion rationale given, of course, is irrelevant. Vaticidalprophet 18:45, 25 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment. Hey Hatchens. Just wondering if you have additional info to add to your nomination? Is your concern notability, spamming, something else?

  • Weak keep for now. This doesn't seem to be in the fairly narrow range of drafts MfD is good for, where speedies are inappropriate but the thing needs to get out ASAP without waiting for a G13.

While the draft is referenced solely to PR and regurgitated PR and authored by a paid editor who cannot hear that their referencing is unacceptable, it might just as well wither on the vine. However, does this not just give work for folk at G13 time? If resubmitted it ought to be rejected, after all. It will fail a main space AfD (0.8 probability) in this state.

Unencyclopedic; WP:NOTCENSORED only applies to articles. Not sure how this improves the encyclopedia. Firestar464 (talk) 06:52, 22 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep: Harmless userbox nominated based on apparently misunderstood premises; userpages are permitted to have this kind of content (there's a few quite high-profile ones I could point you to if I wanted to name names). Vaticidalprophet 07:17, 22 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Speedy keep Virtually no userboxen are encyclopedic – that is not their purpose. There is nothing about this userbox that violates WP:USERPAGE. --bonadea contributions talk 08:16, 22 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep not discriminatory/hateful, though a bit crude. SK2242 (talk) 17:43, 22 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: Talking about sex in user space is very unprofessional. Per our WP:UP guidelines, we do not allow WP:POLEMIC material. Our user page is a place to talk about our Wikipedia activities primarily, and this userbox is asking to be used as vandalism. Aasim (talk) 20:39, 22 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    Also per WP:OM - According to the Wikimedia Foundation, controversial images should follow the principle of 'least astonishment', that is, we should choose images that respect the conventional expectations of readers for a given topic as much as possible without sacrificing the quality of the article. For example, editors selecting images for articles like Human body have thousands of images of naked bodies and body parts available to them, but they normally choose images that portray the human body in an unemotional, non-sexual standard anatomical position over more sexual images due to greater relevance to the subject. The more sexual image is not given special favor simply because it is more offensive. Similarly, editors of articles such as Automobile do not include images of vehicles with naked women posing near them, even though such images exist and "Wikipedia is not censored", due to concerns about relevance. Wikipedia is not censored, but Wikipedia also does not favor offensive images over non-offensive images.
    A template like this is a potential violation of the PLA. Aasim (talk) 20:42, 22 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • Unprofessional? Wikipedia editors are not professionals, so that's pretty much a non-sequitur. I also wonder how the userbox could be interpreted as polemic? Which opinion or position does it dispute? You claim that it "is asking to be used as vandalism", which is a confusing statement to me – could you point to a place where this userbox has been used for vandalism in the 15 years it has existed? As for WP:OM, it is specifically about "the use of potentially offensive words and images in articles", and the principle of least astonishment (PLA) is also about articles, so those arguments (as well as the long quoted text) don't apply here. Even if it did apply, an early-20th century illustration for a literary work on Greek mythology would hardly be considered "offensive" by most standards. --bonadea contributions talk 21:07, 22 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
      • We do not have to agree on the definition of "professional", but I believe maintaining some level of professionalism is important to help contextualize policies and make improvements. I am saying that if you were to bring up sex out of an educational context it is not super appropriate or professional. I do not care about what the image has to do with it. I just care that user pages and talk pages maintain a degree of professionalism. Aasim (talk) 10:08, 23 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - Harmless userbox that offends absolutely nobody. It was pointed out on the previous nomination: "Sex is a valid encyclopedic topic, and the expression of interest in (or affinity for) it is within the range of topical disclosures usually permitted on userpages". - Knowledgekid87 (talk) 22:53, 23 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Per WP:NOTHOWTO SK2242 (talk) 21:55, 20 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete, but bringing this here is a complete waste of time - just leave these drafts alone and they'll be G13'd in a few months time, they don't need discussion at MfD. The draft is, however, purely a how to guide and has no chance of making it into article space as it falls afoul of what Wikipedia is not. 86.23.109.101 (talk) 01:05, 21 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Leaving these drafts alone even if only for 6 months give the impression that pages like this are allowed on Wikipedia. SK2242 (talk) 11:46, 21 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
It really doesn't matter if these sit around in draft space for 6 months - it's not a public facing part of the encyclopedia and they're not indexed by search engines so people searching google and the like won't come across them. The only way someone would come across one of these drafts is if they specifically look for them. Draft space is full of pages that we don't allow in the encyclopaedia: non-notable stuff, promotional autobiographies, test pages, content forks etc. Bringing them here for discussion is just unnecessary when we have an automated process for dealing with them. 86.23.109.101 (talk) 15:50, 21 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Horrific page that violates WP:NOTHOWTO. SK2242 (talk) 21:50, 20 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete, though 'horrific' is really quite a stretch -- where do you think food comes from? Nonetheless, I concur with the attitude discussed in other nominations that this nomination was unnecessary. Draftspace is self-cleaning, so drafts really only have to go through MfD if they have some unusual issue like tendentious resubmission. Vaticidalprophet 07:22, 21 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I don’t think the methods listed are how rabbits are actually slaughtered for meat. Anyway leaving these pages up even if not forever gives the impression that pages like these are allowed here. SK2242 (talk) 11:48, 21 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. —SmokeyJoe (talk) 07:47, 21 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete as purely a how to guide that has no chance of making it to main space, but, as above, it is a waste of time nominating it here. The nom should also bear in mind Wikipedia is WP:NOT CENSORED and we don't delete pages because some readers might find them objectionable - The Animal slaughter article contains a list of descriptions of various ways that animals are killed which is content that is entirely suitable for the encyclopaedia, and some properly sourced and written information on various methods of dispatching rabbits would be an OK addition to the Rabbiting article. 86.23.109.101 (talk) 16:04, 21 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:WikiProject Ricky Martin (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs) – (View MfD)​

Appears to be a one-participant WikiProject created without going through the procedures per Wikipedia:WikiProject Council/Proposals. As it states there, the most important thing before starting a project is "to start with numerous interested editors committed to collaborating on a topic."

@Starcheerspeaksnewslostwars: Ok, please give me a few days and I will try to find some people to join me. Plus I saw some similar Wikiprojects such as Wikipedia:WikiProject Jennifer Lopez that only had one participant, while they are also inactive. But I myself I am active in this peoject and this project helps me to have a good observation on the articles related to Ricky Martin and it will help me to focus on my edits. I just worked on Tiburones and Cántalo and now they are good articles.

@BilCat: I'm sorry sir, I don't know why you're talking about me this way. I just created this project to improve Wikipedia's coverage of Ricky Martin. He's a notable artist in Latin Music, and his article (Ricky Martin) has received over 11 million views. Plus, he has many releases and there are many related articles to him and I thought creating a wikiproject for him is a good idea, as many other notable artists have wikiprojects. That's all. I know I'm not an expert and I'm not as professional as you are, your majesty. I just try to improve wikipedia articles and myself.

Wikipedia:When sources conflict (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs) – (View MfD)​

Request per User:86.23.109.101 at Wikipedia talk:Miscellany for deletion:

This page is a completely redundant fork of Wikipedia:Conflicting sources, written by a newcomer who seems to have fundamentally misunderstood the policies they were writing about and who has confused verifiability, truth and the existence of different opinions. The advice given by the essay is a combination of confusing and nonsensical (what does "Verify each source" mean? where would you report sources as inaccurate?) and just flat out wrong ("show every source and use all of them" is not the correct way of dealing with this - you should represent all well reported mainstream views in accordance with due weight, not every source you can find). I see no need to have two essays covering the exact same issue and reaching the exact same conclusion (Write articles according to NPOV) when one of them deviates so far from accepted practices. I propose that this essay should be deleted and it's shortcut retargeted to Wikipedia:Conflicting sources.

This draft has been declined twice and rejected twice, all by different reviewers. Today the author resubmitted it for review with no improvement. I rolled back their edits and left them a message on their user talk page warning them about disruptive editing. They have just resubmitted it yet again, with the only change being to remove the name of the organisation's chairman from the infobox.

I think this constitutes tendentious editing, the editor has confirmed COI. There's no hope for this draft and it should be deleted. Curb Safe Charmer (talk) 14:25, 18 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - Rejection was implemented in order to try to put a stop to tendentious resubmissions. Any resubmission after a rejection without attempting to discuss it instead is disruptive. The only real question is whether to take content action, viz., deletion, or conduct action, against the submitter, or both. We are here, and this draft will never become an article while the spammer is pushing it, and it needs to go into a bit bucket. Robert McClenon (talk) 17:53, 18 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Every single sock master is not an LTA. LTA is long term abuse, not every person who gets blocked and socks. And if someone's identity is concealed, it shouldn't be posted at WP:LTA as that would be WP:OUTING. Stop feeding trolls. We need to stop making their tells even more obvious so they can evade and stop giving them the glory. VAXIDICAE💉 20:07, 18 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Which is done easily at SPI. And almost all of the socks listed here are so mind numbingly obvious, they just get reported to AIV. VAXIDICAE💉 20:13, 18 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment: Praxidicae (alias VAXIDICAE) says "We need to stop making their tells even more obvious so they can evade ... "' Why is that not glaringly obvious to everyone? How often is a perfectly good SPI report either declined or turned into a very useful piece of advice to the sockpuppeteer on how to avoid detection next time, by some administrator or clerk telling the person who filed the report that they need to give a detailed explanation of the evidence, instead of just providing enough pointers so that an experienced administrator or clerk can follow them up? I have always thought that is stupid. And helping out sockpuppeteers by setting up a "long term abuse" page where we write out carefully detailed instructions for them on what giveaway signs to avoid with their future sockpuppets is taking the same thing one more step forward.

Template:User wikipedia/Administrator someday (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs) – (View MfD)​

It's a trap for newbies, as per WP:HATC. Adminship is not a trophy to aspire for. Firestar464 (talk) 10:21, 16 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep, not harmful enough to warrant deletion. — csc-1 01:53, 17 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: This is a problematic one. It does on occasion have value -- I've seen Barkeep and others discuss it in more optimistic terms -- but it's been a meme for years for good reason. Considering that keep arguments in prior discussions have included "this userbox lets us screen out the people who should never be admins", it seems...perhaps a little cruel to have, honestly.

  • Keep. Not a trap. Looking at the transcluders is to look at bias. This template attracts Adminship nominators, and the good ones become admins, and the others don’t, and some don’t realise and leave it one their userpage forever. —SmokeyJoe (talk) 11:16, 17 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • Curious: exactly how many editors, in the past 5 years, passed RfA and had this template on their user page beforehand? ProcrastinatingReader (talk) 20:01, 17 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
      • That will be difficult, but you could sleuth it out. It is hard because templates' Special:WhatLinksHere don't record past transclusions or substitutions. You might have to examine RfA candidates userboxes before and after their RfA. Some might remove the template on the starting of discussion with a nominator, or on an agreement to nominate, or on the drafting of their RfA, or the launching of their RfA, or on their promotion, or a random time after their promotion. You might try WikiBlame on every admin's userpage, searching for the userbox text. A yet another complication is that many admins, on becoming admins, delete their userpage, understandably clearing their old personal data posted long ago, and so even WikiBlame will be unreliable. Also, their are a bunch of similar templates, and I really don't think one should be deleted before the others. These templates generally categorize, so it is very easy to find editors thinking about adminship, and in places like WT:RfA, you can find lots of evidence of admins looking for potential new admin candidates, and I am completely sure that these categories are browsed. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 23:02, 17 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete It is a bit of a trap for new users, and it really should be deleted as long as it is used as a negative example of unwanted hat collecting at RFAs. ( Also, delete the similar ones as well. ) Jackattack1597 (talk) 23:21, 17 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Wanting to be an admin (at least for the right reasons) shouldn’t be criminalised. SK2242 (talk) 00:55, 18 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Nothing has meaningfully changed since the past MfD. And, as a user who has this userbox on my userpage, I do not wish to become an administrator for the sake of collecting a trophy, but instead because my editing routine involves frequent requests for administrative action, and that those requests sometimes are not handled in a timely fashion. * Pppery * it has begun... 01:01, 18 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep but warn in the template documentation that using this template may be looked upon negatively. Elli (talk | contribs) 05:48, 18 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • It also may be looked upon positively. I am quite sure that back in 2006-7, it was NOT a negative to aspire to being an admin, and back then everyone who aspired and was competent succeeded at RfA. If there is a problem, the problem is with the current cultural attitude to adminship, not with these old templates. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 06:10, 18 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
      • While I agree that an aspiration towards adminship isn't inherently a bad thing, a significant portion of the users using this template have, in my experience, been more on the level of "narrowly avoiding a CIR block" than "about to be an admin", since well, most people who aspire to be admins and have the competency to pass an RfA know that this template is going to generate opposes. Should the culture be different? Yeah, but we work with what we have. Elli (talk | contribs) 06:39, 18 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
        • And I'm telling you that in the years since 2006, this template (and others like it) had a lot of uses on userpages of people who later passed RfA, and deleted the evidence, and that if you only look at the residual uses by users that RfA nominators pass over, you are looking at a biased selection. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 08:05, 18 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - It is causing any harm ? No. Will potential RFAs be slam dunk opposed based on showing this userbox ? No. Stupid MFD is stupid. –Davey2010Talk 21:11, 19 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. This was discussed 5 months ago and I don't see how anything has changed since then. This doesn't run afoul of any userbox policies so if people want to stick it on their user pages let them. It may be that this userbox is used a lot by newcomers closer to a CIR block than adminship but there are a lot of people that I think would make great administrators that have this on their userpage. Anyone opposing a candidate purely on the basis of them having this userbox is doing the RfA process a disservice in my view. 86.23.109.101 (talk) 19:43, 20 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per SK#2 and SNOW (very loosely in regard to both). Suggest a year moratorium on discussing this here again. — Godsy (TALKCONT) 02:56, 23 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per above and WP:SNOW. -Cupper52Discuss! 21:28, 23 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:Questia/Userbox (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs) – (View MfD)​

This userbox says that a user has access to Questia, but now that Questia is defunct this is obsolete as far as I can tell. Jackattack1597 (talk) 00:06, 18 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

User:Firefly/Userbox Archive/User 911truth (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs) – (View MfD)​

This userbox is offensive and supports a disproved conspiracy theory. By allowing this userbox to remain we are telling users that it is okay to believe this. βӪᑸᙥӴTalkContribs 21:06, 15 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I had no idea this still existed, it was from a mass move of userboxes out of Template/Project space over ten years ago. Agreed it should go, I’ll CSD U1 it now. ƒirefly ( t · c ) 21:12, 15 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Procedurally, I don't think that U1 is appropriate, since Firefly is not the creator of this page. I have removed the CSD template, following the criterion that Pages which have previously been moved are only eligible if all previous titles were in the user's userspace. I have no opinion about whether it should be deleted; if it is, however, we should probably consider a mass nomination of many of the templates in Category:Religion and belief user templates on similar grounds. I also note that this template is transcluded in about 35 user pages. Should those editors be notified? – Jonesey95 (talk) 22:49, 15 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Whoops - you’re quite right, I hadn’t realised, what with it being so long ago. I’d probably say subst and delete in that case. ƒirefly ( t · c ) 07:36, 16 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I would say that the users probably should be notified along with a message saying that disproven ideas like that are not allowed on Wikipedia. βӪᑸᙥӴTalkContribs 11:52, 16 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
