Revived/recruit
Orphaned Recruitment page, can't find group. Revived redirects to Revivification. No history of original author because of history wipe. --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 09:52, 30 September 2009 (BST)
- Keep - One believes you are searching for this, it's seems not to be a recruitment ad but a mislabelled member list. -- . . <== DDR Approved Editor 11:29, 30 September 2009 (BST)
- I'll add a link on their talk page. Removed from deletion. Thanks.--RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 11:31, 30 September 2009 (BST)
Withdrawn as a mistake, so kept. --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 14:00, 30 September 2009 (BST)
Category:Humour (moved from A/SD)
A Crit 4 which is a redirect to its much larger colonial brother: Category:Humor. I ask the serving sysop to consider the possibility that this may be kept on the grounds that it is a redirect for a legitimate method of spelling Humour, but in my opinion it just serves as a way to confuse categorising users (ie. when someone uses it and sees the blue link, they think it is the correct category despite its actually use as a redirect). --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 09:46, 13 September 2009 (BST)
- For my sake, I'd appreciate it if from now on some of you that vote please specify, as Cyberbob, whether you think the other one should be deleted. If so, I'll happily move the entries from Category:Humor to Category:Humour as per Iscariot's reasoning, then delete the former. I just think there should be only one of these categories. --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 11:11, 13 September 2009 (BST)
- Debate moved to the talk page
- Keep - This is an English game, written by an Englishman, set in an English town with servers in England. The language used will be English. If the colonials can't spell, tough, we shall have them learn rather than sully the Queen's English. -- . . <== DDR Approved Editor 09:53, 13 September 2009 (BST)
- Keep - If we're going to delete one of them let it be the American one for the reasons Iscariot outlined above. Cyberbob Talk 10:03, 13 September 2009 (BST)
- Keep - Damn right, Iscariot!--Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 10:41, 13 September 2009 (BST)

- Keep - As Iscariot. --Papa Moloch 12:23, 13 September 2009 (BST)
- Keep - As Iscariot and Bob. Its an English game so we should stick to English on the wiki. -- Cheese 14:53, 13 September 2009 (BST)
- Keep - Keep both, as Link. I'm an American, but I do like to put the "u" in words at times. "Centre" is just gay though.--SirArgo Talk 16:08, 13 September 2009 (BST)
- Keep and leave the US spelling. -- RoosterDragon 16:38, 13 September 2009 (BST)
- Kill the oppressors! - As the guy who created this page (i think) along with Template:Humour i am happy to say how proud i am of all you guys coming so far...i'd like to see the american version gone but at the same time it is the language of the internet, so perhaps they should both act as redirects to a brand new page, Category:funny. Thoughts? --xoxo 06:33, 14 September 2009 (BST)
- How about we make them both redirect to Category:Humour?--Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 07:09, 14 September 2009 (BST)

- keep - and delete the misspelled "Category:Humor" --WanYao 23:26, 14 September 2009 (BST)
- keep - As a redirect. The rest of the commentary is nonsense about a long settled dispute of linguistic rules and editing standards that no comments here will change. The current set up reflects the very valid accepted wiki standard for linguistic spelling disputes. Basically the rest is just idiocy. --Karekmaps?! 22:52, 17 September 2009 (BST)
- Keep -- AHLGTG THE END IS NIGH! 23:58, 17 September 2009 (BST)

Mall Tour Maps (moved from A/SD)
- Category:Mall Tour 2009/Map crit 1,4
- Mall Tour 2009/Map crit 1
Both dupes of Mall Tour 2009/MallTourMap. -- RoosterDragon 05:04, 13 September 2009 (BST)
- And duped again at User:Mall Tour 2009/Map. This is what happens when large groups have their pages spread all over 3 different namespaces in the wiki. With multiple people editing, it gets very messy, and we end up with unused sub-categories and dupes on dupes on dupes. I've contacted the group leader, and hopefully we can get things sorted out properly -- boxy talk • teh rulz 07:08 13 September 2009 (BST)
- Keep - Clearly against the wishes of the group in question who are well within their rights to organise their pages how they see fit in their namespaces. Petty attempt by a sysop to edit other groups' templates to prove a point when he's yet to do my protections, rule on misconduct cases or even issue my apology. -- . . <== DDR Approved Editor 05:16, 13 September 2009 (BST)
- If you really want to keep the new page and be redundant, go ahead. Anything within the group's main namespace and theirs to meddle with, but the category namespace provides meta-functions which mean you don't get sole purview over it (not that groups get entire exclusivity to their pages anyway). -- RoosterDragon 05:22, 13 September 2009 (BST)
- Single keep, take it to deletions for two weeks. Also policy shows groups have control over their pages and subpage regardless of their location, if you want to make a special case, off you go to A/PD. -- . . <== DDR Approved Editor 05:30, 13 September 2009 (BST)

Delete/Keep - Delete the first one, keep the second.--SirArgo Talk 05:39, 13 September 2009 (BST)- Except they're both duplicated by Mall Tour 2009/MallTourMap. Cyberbob Talk 05:40, 13 September 2009 (BST)
- But the second one is under the group namespace. As far as I know, there is no policy that deals with dupe group subpages being deleted.--SirArgo Talk 05:46, 13 September 2009 (BST)
- Actually, Izzy did want it deleted but an hour ago. Must've changed his mind. -- RoosterDragon 05:53, 13 September 2009 (BST)
- We must be really good friends for you to be wandering around shortening my handle like that. -- . . <== DDR Approved Editor 06:00, 13 September 2009 (BST)
- Interesting. Non group member makes a page for said group. I change my vote and I recommend, to deaf ears I would presume, that Iscariot or another group member takes the action to arbies. And hell, this whole thing could actually go there.--SirArgo Talk 05:59, 13 September 2009 (BST)

- Delete - Bob Boberton TF / DW 07:09, 13 September 2009 (BST)
- Delete - I never understood why people started making groups and events fucking categories in the first place. Retarded and confusing. --WanYao 23:28, 14 September 2009 (BST)
- Keep Mall Tours are screwed by the wiki system. While not an official user like Iscariot they aren't a real group either since they are an ongoing event and therefore different every year (hence the new names). The only page here that I think is a problem is the one under the User space, but since the wiki policies aren't open minded enough to protect something new like the MT I could see why they put it there. Just make sure everything links and come up with a workable policy on these things.-- #99 DCC 18:11, 18 September 2009 (BST)
- Of course wiki policies are open minded enough to protect super-groups like the mall tours. As long as there is a leadership that is calling the shots, they have exactly the same protection as any group or user page has, regardless of whether you put it in the user namespace in a misguided attempt to have any edit to them deemed to be automatically bad faith -- boxy talk • teh rulz 11:47 19 September 2009 (BST)
- Delete the first one, but keep the second one as a redirect. --ZsL 22:37, 20 September 2009 (BST)

Team_Zombie_Hardcore/MOST_SUCK_Page
This entire page is a deliberate, malicious attack on several players, and makes entirely unfounded accusations of zerging and spying against myself, as well as insulting the Philosophe Knights, Amber Waves and Violet Begonia. Pages like this should not be allowed on the Wiki, IMO. A11an0n 13:13, 11 September 2009 (BST)
