Speedy deletion nomination of Shithole

Thank you for experimenting with Wikipedia. Your test worked, and the page that you created has been or soon will be deleted. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you want to do. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

The above appears to have been placed here by mistake. I have notified RaseaC to take another look. Edison (talk) 20:42, 5 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Not sure what happened there due to being unable to see the edit history, I can only guess it has something to do with you deleting it at some point. RaseaC (talk) 20:59, 5 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Looking through the edit history to remind me of what this has to do with me, it seems that I speedy-deleted the page as G3 vandalism in January this year, then recreated it as a soft redirect to wiktionary - hence the appearance of the above template... --Kurt Shaped Box (talk) 22:37, 5 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Makes sense. It looks as if it's the kind of article that would need pretty heavy protection even if it were just going to be a redirect. RaseaC (talk) 22:39, 5 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Would you have any objections to me replacing the Wiktionary redirect and then fully-protecting the page? There's no way that WP will ever have, or need (well, as far as I can forsee) an article named 'shithole' - but I can imagine a link to the definition being somewhat useful for someone, somewhere... --Kurt Shaped Box (talk) 23:05, 5 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

K.S.B. seems to have been a mere "victim of circumstances," and experienced "collateral damage" in the ongoing and never-ending fight against vandalism. In my checkered career, I have filled in one of these, once topped by an outhouse, and I have dug a fresh one, to be covered by an outhouse. They could be more politely titled "privy pit." Not a single one of the numerous articles of this title remotely approached encyclopedic quality. The title might well be protected ("salted") to prevent recreation. Edison (talk) 05:12, 6 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You're probably right. I will now go forth and permanently cover the privy pit to prevent anyone else from making further foul-smelling deposits... :) --Kurt Shaped Box (talk) 22:49, 6 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free image (File:Porkdukeslogo.jpg)

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Porkdukeslogo.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of "file" pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Aspects (talk) 20:00, 6 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
