This page hosts local (i.e., Meta-Wiki) requests for page deletion. For requests for speedy deletion from global sysops or stewards, see Steward requests/Miscellaneous. Any language may be used on this page. Before commenting on this page, please read the deletion policy, in particular the criteria for speedy deletion, and the inclusion policy. Please place the template {{RFD}} on the page you are proposing for deletion, and then add an entry in an appropriate section below. As a courtesy, you may wish to inform the principal authors of the page about the request. After at least one week, an administrator will close and carry out the consensus or majority decision.

Articles that qualify for speedy deletion should be tagged with {{delete}} or {{delete|reason}}, and should not be listed here. (See also speedy deletion candidates.) Files with no sources should be tagged with {{no source}} and need not be listed here, either. To request undeletion, see #Requests for undeletion. See Meta:Inclusion policy for a general list of what does not belong on the Meta-Wiki.

Previous requests are archived. Deletion requests ({{Deletion requests}}) can be added to talk page to remember previous RfDs.

Template:JS migration[edit]

Per w:Wikipedia:Templates for discussion/Log/2021 March 21#Template:JS migration * Pppery * it has begun 16:56, 1 October 2021 (UTC)[]

What about the pages where it is still in "use"? --MF-W 22:59, 9 October 2021 (UTC)[]
It does nothing other than populate a maintenance category which is now useless (for the reasons I explained on enwiki) and should be removed in all of those cases. * Pppery * it has begun 04:16, 10 October 2021 (UTC)[]

Orphaned documentation pages[edit]

Documentation pages of templates that have already been deleted (1, 2, 3, 4). Serve no purpose any more. ~~~~

Category:Wiki Women Edit-a-thon Nepal 2016[edit]

It does not look like this one is any different from Category:Wiki Women Edit-a-thon 2016, and the main category is named Category:Wiki Women Edit-a-thon without a mention of Nepal. ~~~~

Additionally listing Category:Wiki Women Edit-a-thon Nepal 2016/ne. ~~~~

I think We can keep main category (Category:Wiki Women Edit-a-thon) and a new category named Category:Wiki Women Edit-a-thon in Nepal for specifying the country which organizing the event and delete empty categories. Nirmal Dulal (talk) 05:24, 25 October 2021 (UTC)[]
Thank you! @1234qwer1234qwer4: any concerns left to just deleted the now empty collection here? — xaosflux Talk 12:46, 25 October 2021 (UTC)[]
In case we are indeed dropping the by-year categorisation, then no. The following categories could be deleted then:

Category:Dagbani Wikimedians Chapter/Templates/Tabs[edit]

These aren't templates, and I'm not sure what this has to do with "tabs". Looks like all of these can be recategorised under Category:Dagbani Wikimedians Chapter, which only cointains Category:Dagbani Wikimedians Chapter/Templates at the moment, though it might be worth renaming it to Category:Dagbani Wikimedians User Group in line with the mainspace pages. ~~~~

If you insist to delete, it then at least can we simply rename it to Category:Dagbani Wikimedians User Group without moving, just so we can keep all the subpages intact? -—M@sssly 17:53, 23 September 2021 (UTC)[]
Sorry, I don't understand your request. ~~~~

Category:Tools or Category:Tools and scripts[edit]

Currently, we have the two categories Category:Tools and Category:Tools and scripts, which are only linked to each other by a "see also" hatnote. The first one is categorised under Category:Software and Category:Infrastructure, while the second one belongs to Category:Documentation. Judging by the name though, it looks that both have essentially the same scope, so this splitting makes pages harder to find. While "Tools" is shorter and more concise, "Tools and scripts" appears to be slightly more inclusive, as well as having a significantly higher number of translations. I would lean towards deleting/redirecting the first one, though I am open to see additional arguments here. ~~~~

Category:MassMessage[edit]

Seems redundant to Category:Global message delivery. ~~~~

Category:Wikidata Users[edit]

Misspelt and less populated version of Category:Wikidata users, created by the same editor. ~~~~

Can be converted into a redirect. --Minorax«¦talk¦» 13:15, 29 October 2021 (UTC)[]

Category:1880 songs[edit]

Appears to be out of project scope – delete and remove category (along with other redlinked ones) from the only member. ~~~~

Category:দপ্তর সম্পাদক[edit]

Google translates this as "Office secretary", so I suppose the more specific (and populated) Category:Wikimedia Bangladesh Online Meeting already covers this aspect of categorisation. ~~~~
