requesting deletion of User:WookieInHeat/Userboxes/Politically Incorrect

Hi, contrary to the current instructions at it doesn't look like unregistered users are able to get past step one of the MfD process at this time. I'd like to nominate User:WookieInHeat/Userboxes/Politically Incorrect for deletion. For better or for worse, it is still not possible for members of a civil society to use swastikas to describe their own irreverence. 24.162.198.130 (talk) 06:02, 1 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I have gone ahead and created the discussion page on your behalf. You are free to comment there now at this point. Thanks for bringing it up, ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 06:15, 1 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you! 24.162.198.130 (talk) 06:31, 1 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Admin needed to delete an improper archive stub

Can some admin delete an improper Talk page archive:

It is not fatal, but the archive index in Talk:Judaism_and_violence is showing 3 archives (#1, #2, #10) when there should only be 2 (#1, #2). I'm not sure what process to use to get something simple like this deleted, so I just thought I'd post here. --Noleander (talk) 15:56, 6 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I've handled it. In most cases, {{db-g6}} can handle such matters. Courcelles 21:58, 11 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Requested deletion of WP:Zh:陳爽

WP:Zh:陳爽 should be deleted. It is a copy of zh:陳爽, is not in English, and is in the wrong namespace. I tried nominating it for speedy deletion but it seems that is not allowed in this case. 155.33.172.164 (talk) 19:21, 11 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I have finished the nomination for deletion at Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Wikipedia:Zh:陳爽. Cunard (talk) 21:30, 11 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Blanking of article before proposing it for deletion?

Specifically is this [1] proper? Following initiation of discussion (which was started when the article was effectively blanked) the nom made this edit [2] on 13 January at 17:33, reverted at [3] and back to essentially a blank at [4] all in the space of 9 hours (last revert says the blanking was done "as a matter of courtesy"). Is this how MfD is intended to function? Collect (talk) 23:50, 13 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

MfD can function by referring people to a version in the history, but this is not how it is supposed to work. If a page can be fixed by editing, it is relevant to the discussion and should be allowed. Courtesy blanking discourages fixing by editing, and so is not a good idea. If a page is so offensive that it can last another week, then it should be referred to an oversight request and nothing should be posted at MfD, or anywhere else. If it is not oversight worthy, but you feel there is a sensitivity concern, then consider that Taking administrative shortcuts, or other unusual actions, in the name of sensitivity is self-defeating. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 00:11, 14 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Missing some of the tasks involved with the deletion of projects

Is there some sort of bot or a procedure for deleting the templates and sub pages that are associated with projects that get deleted. For instances Template:WikiProject Nickel Creek Template:WikiProject Linkin Park Template:WikiProject Deftones are now red links on many pages and should have been removed. Should we not implement some sort of system to eliminate this templates after projects are deleted. There is also all the sub pages associated with projects that are not being deleted Wikipedia:WikiProject Nickel Creek/Collaboration for instance. This deletion need to be done properly and be all inclusive not leaving all the sub pages intact. Moxy (talk) 22:52, 18 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

For the templates, drop them in WP:TFD/H, and a bot will take care of it. Thanks! Plastikspork ―Œ(talk) 07:16, 25 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move

Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion → Miscellany for discussion — All the other deletion disuussions are "for discussion" (e.g. WP:Redirects for discussion) apart from AFD, which I have nominated as well. 22:16, 26 February 2011 (UTC)

Requesting closesure and restart of a debate

I believe the duscisson over WP:Think of Wikipe-tan! has become a battleground over Wikipe-tan and not the issue of the page. This seems to be increasingly the case with every post I have seen since the page was cleaned up. There have been a number, mostly anti-wikipe-tan, who have voted in what seems to be their opinions on the character on the page and not about the page itself. IMO any decision with the current debate whether keep or delete will be tainted by people's stance on the character Wikipe-tan rather than the merits (or lack thereof) of the page itself.陣内Jinnai 22:30, 26 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
