UDWiki:Administration/Deletions/Scheduling
This page will be used for users to request that pages falling into certain categories be deleted as appropriate by a sysop without having to go through all the red tape of Speedy Deletions and Deletions. A list of pages in the Scheduled Deletions list is located here.
Deletion Scheduling
Deletion Scheduling requests should be requested in the same general format as normal Deletions. Votes will occur in the same general manner, and like normal deletion requests will be voted on for two (2) weeks, as judged by the initial datestamp. Votes in this case shall be as follows:
- Yea - For approval of the deletion scheduling request
- Nay - For disapproval of the deletion scheduling request
Remember that votes must be signed and datestamped (use ~~~~)
After the two weeks are up, if the page has reached at least a 50% majority in favour it is added to the Scheduled list. If the vote fails, it will be cycled as unsuccessful. The closed request can then get shifted to the Archive.
