Speedy Deletion Queue

Served Speedy Deletions

Frank Harrison

Crit 1. As I recall, we have previously deleted a group page that was made by a non-member just to insult them. Seems the same thing would apply to making a page for a character that is not yours. Crit 1 I suppose. --PdeqTalk* 01:45, 29 August 2008 (BST)

Dammit, you beat me to posting this by a couple of minutes! I need to type faster...--SirArgo Talk 01:47, 29 August 2008 (BST)
Gone.--Karekmaps?! 08:32, 31 August 2008 (BST)

Suggestion Screw-ups

Crit 1, duped by New Suggestion:20080828 Randomized Re-Spawn on Standup from Headshot, which should be moved to either of those locations after they've been deleted. I'd rather not move it manually to preserve the page history. --Midianian|T|T:S|C:RCS| 10:29, 28 August 2008 (BST)

Moved and both Deleted after many zany antics.--Karekmaps?! 22:07, 28 August 2008 (BST)
I probably should have been clearer about this: the date is also wrong. It was made on 27th. --Midianian|T|T:S|C:RCS| 22:15, 28 August 2008 (BST)
I'm gonna go with the assumption that he was using the magic word and it did that thing it does where the date it outputs changes earlier than timestamps. Mostly 'cause I don't want to accidentally delete it a third time :P--Karekmaps?! 22:18, 28 August 2008 (BST)

Crit 7. Author blanked the page because he made "the wrong kind of article".--SirArgo Talk 04:16, 27 August 2008 (BST)

Gone. --ZsL 02:31, 28 August 2008 (BST)

Sandbox:The Fortress/Demobilized Teams

The author blanked the page and replaced it with, "delete". I believe this is a Crit 7.--SirArgo Talk 00:00, 26 August 2008 (BST)

Done--Karekmaps?! 00:23, 26 August 2008 (BST)

WNBS

Crit 1 all this please. --xoxo 07:57, 22 August 2008 (BST)

User pages cannot be crit 1. --  AHLGTG THE END IS NIGH! 16:25, 22 August 2008 (BST)
Vandal created pages can be deleted though.--Karekmaps?! 18:30, 22 August 2008 (BST)
Go ahead and delete 500 talk pages if you like, but leaving them as is will do more good than harm. --  AHLGTG THE END IS NIGH! 18:50, 22 August 2008 (BST)
Vandal edits are always reverted and in the case of new pages created, deleted. Just coz it's a big job doesn't mean it should be ignored. Kevan is talking about clearing histories coz there is too much crap. And quite frankly i don't want to see airborne so high up in the popularity thing.--xoxo 10:20, 23 August 2008 (BST)
He was warned for the why, not the what. Your sole goal is to get more links to your page than anyone else, instead of helping this community. I'll agree with the year old ones and the ones to blocked vandals, but not that entire list. Some of those are fairly recent, others a couple of months. --  AHLGTG THE END IS NIGH! 22:58, 23 August 2008 (BST)
He's not going to get a reward for his spamming AHLG, or rather he's not going to get to keep it.--Karekmaps?! 23:21, 23 August 2008 (BST)
I can list some instances where deletion is going to make them wonder where their page went. Don't delete those. --  AHLGTG THE END IS NIGH! 00:25, 24 August 2008 (BST)

Le Famille

Misspellings are embarrassing.

Thank you, Vigeous RHA 22:41, 21 August 2008 (BST)

Done, in the future please use a level 3 header.--Karekmaps?! 23:37, 21 August 2008 (BST)

Template:Oddsopensearch

Ran into this mother while looking for a specific template. Last edit was 2006 and no template was actually created.--SirArgo Talk 06:37, 18 August 2008 (BST)

This template is embedded in a page as text that can't be edited on that page. Please start checking the What links here link in the box on the right. If you go to Search_Odds/Outside you will see that you put the speedy delete template on that page also by putting it on the template page. --– Nubis NWO 12:37, 18 August 2008 (BST)
I'm going to delete that speedy delete template, but take a look at that page I linked and see if you recognize the text at the top. --– Nubis NWO 12:38, 18 August 2008 (BST)
Not deleted.--– Nubis NWO 12:44, 18 August 2008 (BST)

Still more Crit 10 Not a Template Templates

Template:Insane

Template:Navimg

Template:Picture

I checked the history of all of these and one was wiped and and has been unused, another is not a template, and another is a link to a non-existent picture.--SirArgo Talk 00:43, 17 August 2008 (BST)

Uncompleted/Not even a Template, Templates

Template:Country Club

Template:DawnOfTheDead

Template:FF9999

I am on a roll in taking out bad templates! They are all crit 10 except for one. One of these (Template:DawnOfTheDead) was wiped by its original author in an attempt to get rid of it, but he never applied for it to be deleted so I think that one is a crit 7. He just never asked for it.--SirArgo Talk 23:50, 15 August 2008 (BST)

{{DawnOfTheDead}} was blanked by the author. The other two are getting a keep, they aren't included on a page but they do have use(Greenwood Country Club (Monroeville))--Karekmaps?! 00:58, 16 August 2008 (BST)
Unfortunately templates can't just be based on used/unused criteria. Ones like the speedy delete or many admin templates aren't always "in use" but shouldn't be deleted. I've been trying to put them all in better categories, but I'm taking a break. --– Nubis NWO 04:32, 16 August 2008 (BST)

No kill zone

This has got to be a crit 1.--SirArgo Talk 00:56, 9 August 2008 (BST)

  1. Keep - This is a commonly used phrase in UD. I believe it belongs in a glossary or something, and not on its own page. However, because -- and solely because -- it's such a common term, I'm hesitant to just speedy it. Let's let the community decide, and give it a chance to develop: it might turn into a useful page. --WanYao 10:16, 10 August 2008 (BST)
    Why not just add the info to the Sacred ground page? It could use a bit more padding and a huge update. --– Nubis NWO 13:19, 11 August 2008 (BST)
    Surely the term is self explanatory? Also these 'zones' usually have very little meaning considering how easily they are broken. Also pretty much every building in Malton is part of some sort of 'no attacking here' thingo. change that vote wan!--xoxo 13:45, 11 August 2008 (BST)
    That's why I thought it should be deleted. These term is self explanatory so it doesn't need a full page to be designated to it. And I think somewhere there is already a page that lists all of the specific No Kill Zones.--SirArgo Talk 17:31, 11 August 2008 (BST)
    Sadly our hands are tied. If you want to put it to a full vote it can be moved to A/D but unless WanYao can be convinced to change his Keep it can't be processed here.--Karekmaps?! 22:39, 12 August 2008 (BST)
    Nope, I'm sticking with my vote. There are certain places, e.g. Quartly and MCM, which are very well known and advertised No-kill zones. Also there's the Philosophe Knights' policies regarding libraries. If there is a page listing all the NKZ's please link to it... If it's real, and decent, this should possibly be a redirect to there. And the policy is NOT self-explanatory in a metagaming context. --WanYao 05:45, 15 August 2008 (BST)
    If you think it's got too little content, I could probably expand upon the meaning, provide examples, make it truely informative, if you like. Not that I'm the original author, or anything. --DTPraise KnowledgePK 22:27, 15 August 2008 (BST)
    It's been expanded. Feel free to add to or edit it. --WanYao 11:26, 17 August 2008 (BST)

Strange Templates

Template:MalTelUser

Found two more of these strange non-template templates. They've both been abandoned since May as well.--SirArgo Talk 21:50, 15 August 2008 (BST)

Personal Information

According to the scheduled deletions guidelines I request that the list of IP addresses posted by User:TotalMacho posted on the A/VB talk page be speedydeleted. Under the criterion that IP addresses, while publicly available information, are akin to publicly listed phone #s, addresses, emails, etc. and thus fall under this guideline. --WanYao 02:22, 12 August 2008 (BST) And, for the record, this entire incident is FINISHED. I shall not be trolling ioncannon or his puppets on this wiki or in chatboxes or anything. As far as I am concerned, this ends here. --WanYao 02:25, 12 August 2008 (BST)

I was in the middle of this when you filed the request it seems. --Karekmaps?! 03:00, 12 August 2008 (BST)
