Requests for deletion

Archives (current)→

This page hosts local (i.e., Meta-Wiki) requests for page deletion. For requests for speedy deletion from global sysops or stewards, see Steward requests/Miscellaneous. Any language may be used on this page. Before commenting on this page, please read the deletion policy, in particular the criteria for speedy deletion, and the inclusion policy. Please place the template {{RFD}} on the page you are proposing for deletion, and then add an entry in an appropriate section below. As a courtesy, you may wish to inform the principal authors of the page about the request. After at least one week, an administrator will close and carry out the consensus or majority decision.

Articles that qualify for speedy deletion should be tagged with {{delete}} or {{delete|reason}}, and should not be listed here. (See also speedy deletion candidates.) Files with no sources should be tagged with {{no source}} and need not be listed here, either. To request undeletion, see #Requests for undeletion. See Meta:Inclusion policy for a general list of what does not belong on the Meta-Wiki.

Previous requests are archived. Deletion requests ({{Deletion requests}}) can be added to talk page to remember previous RfDs.

Special:PrefixIndex/Translations:Access_to_nonpublic_personal_data_policy-summary

The page "Access to nonpublic personal data policy-summary/" has moved to the Foundation website, and we have all these unattached translations that people still are editing, which is valueless. Probably time for a cleanout, unless someone can think of a reason not to do so.  — billinghurst sDrewth 04:22, 23 January 2024 (UTC)

• +1, delete these useless pages --TenWhile6 (talk | SWMT) 06:14, 23 January 2024 (UTC)
• Delete, I think that we should have a speedy criteria for stuff that has been moved to the Foundation site. Deleting the translation pages, only leaving the /en page as a soft redirect. --Minorax^«¦talk¦» 13:07, 27 January 2024 (UTC)
• Deleted the unused units. The page display titles are still used, though they can be deleted too if @Minorax's suggestion is implemented. (FTR, right now translation of the page is marked as "discouraged".) ~~~~

• Delete the unused units per 1234qwer1234qwer4. Hide on Rosé ^t 04:46, 13 February 2024 (UTC)
• Hold on. I think there is a defect here, aren't the foundation wiki imports of the translation units defective, in that they have not maintained authorship attribution? — xaosflux ^Talk 12:04, 24 February 2024 (UTC)

  phab:T347156 seems to still be unresolved, so these improper transwiki's haven't been resolved. — xaosflux ^Talk 12:18, 26 April 2024 (UTC)

• Delete per 1234qwer1234qwer4. --SHB2000 (talk | contribs) 02:10, 21 April 2024 (UTC)

Help:Captcha

No longer used per discussion at MediaWiki talk:Createacct-imgcaptcha-help. * Pppery * _{it has begun} 21:26, 22 April 2024 (UTC)

Think that where it is still called, it goes to what seems to be the original source of this text in MediaWiki:Captchahelp-text (which loads in to Special:Captcha/help - the link that is actually on the CAPTCHA). Special:WhatLinksHere/Help:Captcha does show some uses and not sure if this could be linked in from elsewhere. Perhaps just replace all the text with int: MediaWiki:Captchahelp-text ? — xaosflux ^Talk 18:24, 23 April 2024 (UTC)

I've fixed the one link at CAPTCHA exemptions which was transcluded in 100 pages. There don't seem to be any others. * Pppery * _{it has begun} 18:59, 23 April 2024 (UTC)

lgtm. — xaosflux ^Talk 20:09, 23 April 2024 (UTC)

• Redirect to either Special:Captcha/help or CAPTCHA exemptions, as I think it's still a probable search term. --SHB2000 (talk | contribs) 00:50, 27 April 2024 (UTC)

EnWikipedia:Turkish alphabet

Seems out of Meta's scope. --Min☠︎rax^«¦talk¦» 05:58, 1 May 2024 (UTC)
