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.

Out of project scope. Apparently a full proposed wiki drafted in Meta's mainspace. Export to Wikibooks, where this might fall in scope, or delete. ~~~~

Yeah...we're not Incubator, and I don't know if this would fall within Incubator's scope anyways. It doesn't exactly need immediate deletion, but it would be better to find somewhere else for this content to sit and potentially be developed. Best, Vermont (talk) 20:33, 10 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Minorax as incubator / enwikibooks sysop can you see is it possible to move either to incubator (which I think is unlikely) or Wikibooks (we just treat it as a book there?). Thanks so much. Camouflaged Mirage (talk) 09:32, 14 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Camouflaged Mirage: Content seems to fit well in wikibooks' scope. Will import it tomorrow. --Minorax«¦talk¦» 14:56, 14 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Done for mainspace pages, wikibooks' way of categorizing pages is slightly different and I don't see a need to import them. --Minorax«¦talk¦» 01:57, 15 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks @Minorax. I think can be safe to delete from here. Delete all. Camouflaged Mirage (talk) 10:12, 24 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I was asked to comment here. This looks like a clone of the respective pages at Wikibooks (in fact, I thought at first that these pages were from 2004 or something like that). Hence I would recommend moving to Wikibooks (which Minorax did?) and delete them - does not belong here at least. Leaderboard (talk) 18:21, 16 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Minorax: Was the import to Wikibooks done/completed? If so, unless there are any objections, I'll delete the batch of pages. Thanks, —MarcoAurelio (talk) 21:52, 23 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@MarcoAurelio: Yes check.svg Done --Minorax«¦talk¦» 02:05, 24 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you :-) —MarcoAurelio (talk) 10:47, 24 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@MarcoAurelio Are you still planning to perform the deletion? ~~~~
User:1234qwer1234qwer4 (talk) 12:45, 6 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@1234qwer1234qwer4: Hello. Yes. I delayed it a bit due to the ping to Amqui below. I'll perform the deletions shortly. Thanks, —MarcoAurelio (talk) 14:21, 7 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support deletion, if the transfer of pages is complete. – Ajraddatz (talk) 21:54, 23 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Amqui: --Rschen7754 02:08, 24 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Deleted. Per consensus as out of scope. Content migrated and imported to Wikibooks. —MarcoAurelio (talk) 22:29, 8 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Templates[edit]

Template:Humour[edit]

Duplicate of Template:Humor/fr. Little usage that can be replaced afterwards -or- we can redirect it to Template:Humor/fr. —MarcoAurelio (talk) 11:28, 17 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Replace uses and then redirect to Template:Humor. Use of the British English spelling is not by itself sufficient to indicate French. * Pppery * it has begun 16:47, 17 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Replace and redirect. As there are probably more people in the UK, Singapore, Canada, Australia, India, Ireland or really most Commonwealth countries than the total number of French speakers, I would expect that more people would probably end up looking for the English version. SHB2000 (talk | contribs) 11:56, 25 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Replace and redirect per SHB2000. Hulged (talk) 05:43, 1 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Categories[edit]

Submit your category deletion request at the bottom of this section.

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. ~~~~
User:1234qwer1234qwer4 (talk) 21:08, 22 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

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)[reply]
Sorry, I don't understand your request. ~~~~
User:1234qwer1234qwer4 (talk) 19:06, 23 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Rename the categories to User Group rather than Chapter; and move everything in /Templates/Tabs to Category:Dagbani Wikimedians User Group. (since they aren't templates; only the header/footer directly under Category:Dagbani Wikimedians Chapter/Templates are. –SJ talk  18:47, 3 November 2021 (UTC)

@1234qwer1234qwer4: I have moved Category:Dagbani Wikimedians Chapter to Category:Dagbani Wikimedians User Group and clear Category:Dagbani Wikimedians Chapter/Templates/Tabs, so it and Category:Dagbani Wikimedians Chapter could be deleted. I have also moved Category:Dagbani Wikimedians Chapter/Templates to Category:Dagbani Wikimedians User Group/Templates altogether, and the former redirect page could be deleted too. —— Eric Liu（Talk） 12:37, 25 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

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. ~~~~
User:1234qwer1234qwer4 (talk) 22:23, 9 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Are there anyone have ideas on how can a bot script or template populates one of both? If no such scripts or templates, I prefer merge 1st to 2nd. Liuxinyu970226 (talk) 09:27, 14 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I also prefer merging two categories (are all the same). Thingofme (talk) 16:11, 15 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Merge these two categories by deleting Category:Tools and scripts and then move Category:Tools to Category:Tools and scripts. —— Eric Liu（Talk） 12:44, 25 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Category:User groups or Category:Users by access[edit]

I request to merge these two categories by deleting Category:User groups and then move Category:Users by access to Category:User groups. —— Eric Liu（Talk） 13:16, 25 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose Oppose the former is a category about groups, the later about users - these should not be merged. — xaosflux Talk 11:19, 1 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose Oppose per Xaosflux. --Hulged (talk) 07:33, 3 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose Oppose per above. --𝑇𝑚𝑣 (𝑡𝑎𝑙𝑘) 02:25, 12 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose Oppose. These two are not entirely the same.--Jusjih (talk) 20:42, 13 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep both, per above, absolutely differents between both concepts. --Liuxinyu970226 (talk) 03:03, 14 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Category:CC-BY-2.5[edit]

Being empty for now and acceptable on Commons, do we need it here?--Jusjih (talk) 20:45, 13 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Not very useful, files licensed so are fully Commons allowed. Liuxinyu970226 (talk) 03:02, 14 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
