Splitting 2020 Labour Party leadership election

Hello! You split off Endorsements in the 2020 Labour Party leadership election from 2020 Labour Party leadership election. WP:SPLIT says that you should only boldly split (split without a prior discussion) if the article contains multiple distinct topics or if the readable prose length of the article is very long. Neither of these apply to 2020 Labour Party leadership election, so discussion should precede a split following the procedure laid out in WP:PROSPLIT. It's important to follow that procedure so that attribution of user contributions can be easily traced. But even where the split meets the criteria for a bold split, we still have to observe WP:BRD: if you make a bold edit and somebody reverts it, you should move to a discussion under the status quo before your edit. Please revert the endorsements page to a redirect and start a split discussion according to the procedure at WP:PROSPLIT. Ralbegen (talk) 11:59, 12 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Template:Keir Starmer sidebar requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, at Wikipedia:Templates_for_discussion/Log/2020_February_24#Template:Keir_Starmer_sidebar. When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discussion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

Important Notice

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in post-1992 politics of the United States and closely related people.

Proposed deletion of October 2022 British cabinet reshuffle

Hello Willwal1 -- I note you restored this proposed deletion tag with the edit summary including "Please discuss before removing". However this is not how proposed deletion works: any editor, including the creator, is permitted to remove the prod tag for any reason or none. The removal cannot be contested, the only route is then to proceed to WP:Articles for Deletion. Suggest you read the introduction to WP:Proposed deletion.
