| #'''Yea''' - Two weeks sounds good to me.--{{User:Giles Sednik/sig}} 17:38, 26 November 2009 (UTC)

| #'''<s>Yea</s> No''' - <s>Seems reasonable as an expected implementation time-frame, and may prompt people to concentrate on finishing what they start.</s> Fail user is fail. I should have read the existing policy, and a month strikes me as fine for a ceiling. -[[User:Wulfenbach|Wulfenbach]] 19:44, 26 November 2009 (UTC)

| |
| #::...and I thank you (seriously) for your work on it, but what are the technical drawbacks of letting it go to one month rather than half that time? Is the wiki running out of storage space? Why the rush to delete? -[[User:Wulfenbach|Wulfenbach]] 11:07, 28 November 2009 (UTC)
| |
| #:::If we followed that kind of reasoning when the wiki was first made we would not have A/SD. "Disk space = cheep" is not a good enough reason for anything. This is a ''compromise'' from my last proposal that would still see the amount of wastage severely reduced. {{User:Cyberbob240/Sig}} 11:10, 28 November 2009 (UTC)
| |
| #::::I'm sorry, Bob, but having just read the A/SD policy, I cannot see how my reasoning/example/request for clarification leads to NOT having A/SD. If anything, I can see the deletion of unlinked pictures after a given timeframe as being a A/SD criterion. The issue as I understand it is why 2 weeks? Why 1 week? Why 1 month? Why is it better to delete after 2 weeks than one month? You've said that in your experience it is common for a picture that is unlinked for two weeks is likely to remain unlinked. What's the frequency of this then? 9/10? 6/10? I believe you in that in your experience, the above is true. I just would like to see some empirical evidence. -[[User:Wulfenbach|Wulfenbach]] 11:34, 28 November 2009 (UTC)

| #:::::Ask [[User:J3D|Jed]] how the wiki would go out for hours because the server was getting full of data.

| |
| #::::::That's a complete strawman argument, new images that are being linked and therefore won't be subject to this are added to the wiki everyday. That's an argument to increase server space, not delete unwanted images quicker. -- {{User:Iscariot/Signature}} 11:51, 28 November 2009 (UTC)

| #::Well, Hagnat, at least, has lost images from one of his old group pages, when Conn SDed it, and then immediately schedule deleted the images.

| #'''No''' - As Boxy, I see absolutely no reason why they need to go in two weeks rather than a month. Perhaps the server is straining under the weight of unused images that are three weeks old.... -- {{User:Iscariot/Signature}} 03:14, 27 November 2009 (UTC)

| #'''No''' - The last edit merely indicates a "ceiling" on the time when an image was likely to have last been used on a page. Since it's acting as a ceiling, not a floor, there's every reason to be liberal in how much time is allowed.

| ===Grouped Location Pages===
| |
| Grouped location pages, such as [[Shackleville Schools]], are to be deleted once they have been de-merged and incoming links (excluding those referencing deletion) have been diverted to the appropriate pages.--{{:User:Red Hawk One/sig}} 05:31, 17 November 2009 (UTC)

| #'''Yes''' --{{User:OrangeGaf/Sig}} 00:26, 19 November 2009 (UTC)
| | ''For older cases, please see the [[UDWiki:Administration/Deletions/Scheduling/Archive|archive]].'' |
| #'''Yea''' - It might not get used frequently, and only by a select few ops, but why the hell not. Basically, '''a)''' they are already crit 1's, and the more black-and-white sort of crit 1's, not "policy says c1's are 2 lines of text but this has 3". '''b)''' Anyone who attains sysop status will already know the correct procedure so it isn't like we will mess it up, and it isn't the sort of task that an unknowing sysop would do on a whim anyway, there is a lot of work involved beforehand. '''c)''' Even in the case of an op going rogue there is practically null way any sysop could abuse this as part of some personal vendetta etc. so I don't see why we shouldn't add this to get rid of the red tape to make it easier for location pages to conform with existing policy. --{{User:DanceDanceRevolution/sigcode|red|black}}-- 00:28, 19 November 2009 (UTC)
| |
| #'''No''' - Removing all the links is a monotonous task and it would be easy to miss some in the endless repetition of changing them. The oversight from sending it to A/SD ensures that nothing is missed. I see absolutely no great gain to be achieved in scheduling this and a potential problems if we change from the current system that works fine. -- {{User:Iscariot/Signature}} 00:33, 19 November 2009 (UTC)
| |
| #'''No''' - Yeah. --{{User:A Helpful Little Gnome/Sig}} 00:34, 19 November 2009 (UTC)
| |
| #'''Nay''' - As DDR mentioned, crit 1 speedy delete means these group pages get nuked anyway. And since unmerging is so involved, it's a good idea to have at least one other person review the links for errors. Finally, all of the group locations will be gone soon anyway, and this scheduling policy will then be defunct--{{User:Giles Sednik/sig}} 00:38, 19 November 2009 (UTC)
| |
| #'''Yes''' - Forgot to vote. While the nays do bring up good points, I still feel that the sysops who participate in demerging (who would benifit from this) are trustworthy enough to do a thourough job.--{{:User:Red Hawk One/sig}} 00:47, 19 November 2009 (UTC)
