This page is an archive of the proposed deletion of the article below. Further comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or on a Votes for Undeletion nomination). No further edits should be made to this page.
The result of the debate was no consensus. The votes are: 6 to delete, 3 to keep, 1 to move to a name that matches other missing entry articles (which would entail keeping the content). -- BD2412 talk 20:11, July 15, 2005 (UTC)
Doesn't belong (unless I'm missing some higher purpose). Delete. — Fingers-of-Pyrex July 5, 2005 17:25 (UTC)
- Keep each page will provide a list of missing topics (i.e. red links) dml 5 July 2005 17:47 (UTC)
- Move This needs to be renamed to match all of the existing missing entry lists. See Wikipedia:WikiProject Missing encyclopedic articles and the detailed description on the Wikipedia:2004 Encyclopedia topics page that explains its use. Poor naming is the real reason for this vote, so let's fix it before someone puts it up for another vote. Of course, we can't rename until voting is over ... sigh. I want real revision control.... -Harmil 5 July 2005 18:27 (UTC)
- Keep as a list of encyclopedic topics to be created. -- Marcika 5 July 2005 19:07 (UTC)
- Keep you are missing the purpose. NSR (talk) 5 July 2005 20:57 (UTC)
- Delete: The first and third are project makers... This list is useless, so are the lists on the individual year lists. There's also pages to place article requests, and this isn't it. Also note that most of redlinks are red because they don't deserve or need pages. --Alex12 3 6 July 2005 01:19 (UTC)
- Well, I've seen questions without answers before, but never answers without questions (OK, maybe "forty-two"). Unless I'm missing something this seems useless. If people want it as a list of "encyclopedic topics" not covered by Wikipedia they need to look at it more closely. I've already redirected a bunch, and many others should not ever be articles (no article on $2.56???? Or St. Denis (accept St. Dionysus)????? OMG!!!!). Sure, there are some big oversights there (The Cancer Ward and Death of Marat come to mind) but as Alec above said: there's a place for requested articles. Delete. -R. fiend 6 July 2005 04:06 (UTC)

- Delete. this is not "a list of encyclopedic topics", it is a list of quiz answers. I dont see it is any help at all. Bluemoose 6 July 2005 08:14 (UTC)
