Meta:Requests for deletion

From Meta, a Wikimedia project coordination wiki

This is a list of pages nominated for removal from this Wiki. Pages are deleted by meta administrators. These are typically pages created by newbies and/or zombies, pages created by vandals, technical mistakes, administrative changes, personal pages, pages whose content was relevant to other projects (wikipedias or wikibooks likely) and moved there.

All deletion should follow Meta deletion policy. If you object to the removal of a page, please give reasons and add your signature or user-name. To challenge an already-removed page, see Meta:Requests for undeletion . The list of recently deleted files is at Special:Log – an older list is available at Meta:Deletion log.

To propose a page for deletion put a notice on the page listed for removal: {{rfd}} (this will insert the rfd template at that point in the page).

If a page listed here is kept, please remove the above notice from the page before removing the page name from the list below.

The following are usually deleted without delay:

• Vandal pages
• Meaningless pages (containing skfhsdjfkhdjkshfdk)
• Offensive pages (containing insults, swear words)
• Personal pages per request of the user himself

Check for Speedy deletion candidates

The delete system being slightly broken, if you can not delete a page, add the template {{Can'tDelete}}.

If you want to propose a page for speedy deletion, insert {{Delete|~~~~}} on top of the page.

Don't list speedy deletion candidates here, thanks.

Other pages (in particular irrelevant pages, copyright issues or regular clean up) are usually listed for at least 15 days. The 15 days deadline is longer than on local wikipedias, since users do not come on meta as often as they do on local wikipedias. The user who listed a page should ideally not be the one to delete it. Pages created by banned users (after banning) are sometimes left alone, sometimes deleted on sight, sometimes restored by others (if they have been deleted). A user banned on one wikipedia is not necessarily automatically banned on all wikipedias, so a ban from one wikipedia does not imply automatic deletion on meta itself. However, no speedy deletion of a page created by a banned user will be considered sysop abuse (to protect sysop freedom to fight against banned users). Other users may choose to consider the interest and validity of the content of the page first, and to keep/restore the page in question. Pages created before a ban are not automatically candidates for deletion.

Meta is multilingual! Pages can be written in any language. Pages in unusual languages are not automatically candidates for deletion. If the value of a page in an unusual language/character-set is not obvious, the page can be listed here, but should not be deleted until someone who knows the language has seen it and commented on it.

Meta deletion policy is not wikipedia deletion policy. It must be built by the community of meta editors, and take into account meta peculiarities. As a reminder, meta has the following roles 1. Discussion and formulation of the wikipedia project itself, and in particular policy discussion 2. A forum for personal essays that are not necessarily NPOV 3. A place to organise and prepare content, to discuss interlanguage co-ordination issues 4. A place to coordinate the development process

Respect of this policy
Lack of respect for this deletion policy may result in a sysop being listed on Meta:Requests for adminship#desysop. It is very important for meta sysops to be careful in handling deletion, for the following reasons:

• Meta is multilingual and multicultural, which means people may not communicate so easily as on local wikipedias. Pages may be in languages that the deleting sysop does not understand, adding to confusion.
• Meta rules in terms of content are not as clear as wikipedia rules, so it is less clear what is welcome and what is not.
• Meta is small and quiet compared to the larger Wikipedias; meta sysops don't know each other as well as if they were working together everyday. As a result, the web of trust may not be so easy to establish, so following the rules is important to show good will and respect for the work and opinions of others.

Submit your request at the bottom of the relevant section.

Template:Revid
These templates have no place on meta or any other project running on Wikimedia servers. Template inclusion is not optimised for this kind of use, putting these templates in any commonly viewed page will cause excessive database load. Gangleri, please generate the required tables using your own computing resources, then save the template-free results into the relevant Wikipedia or Wikibooks pages. The page list that I want deleted is at Meta:Requests for deletion/4x4 page list -- Tim Starling 23:05, 31 July 2005 (UTC) [reply ]

Related category: Category:4x4 type square -- Tim Starling 23:17, 31 July 2005 (UTC) [reply ]

Halló Tim! I noticed this deletion request last evening. Usually I can not be everywhere and did not read many Wikipedia etc. pages but I must admit that this is the first statement "have no place on meta or any other project running on Wikimedia servers" I could see. I am aware about the technical difference of the constructs I made which are somehow "procedural programming" and probably unique because of the level of nestings and because only named parameters are used which makes them more easier to understand.

One reason of creating them at meta was because of their complexity and because no other multilingual project was known to me. Two, three weeks before I lost 7,000 - 10,000 edits on a set of test wikis in a few seconds. I did not like that this should happen again.

Onother reason is that this is what meta is claiming to be (a multilingual project). Having the library here would allow contributors in other languages or projects to choose what the need.

Regarding "template inclusion is not optimised for this kind of use" I want to remember about bugzilla:02777 – "request for a {{substall:foo}} beside {{subst:bar}}" which is exactly that you mean with "save the template-free results into the relevant Wikipedia or Wikibooks pages". If I understand bugzilla:01126 – "Interwiki Templates" correctly it is another usefull requirement about sharing templates between projects in a similar fashion as images are shared from commons since end of last year. This should be a strategic achievement and many language projects whith less contributors would benefit from it.

Regarding "please generate the required tables using your own computing resources". I spend several months during the last years working on these (4x4 – Jain) and other squares and one aim (of creating pages on this subject) was to let anybody benefit from the results I found out. Most results are computed already as you can see looking at the history of all. I did not post more because of the size. I admit that I used the templates during the last days for the "commutativy check computations" but on the other hand this (transition of transitions – transition composition) is (according to me) something new for ilustrations and wiki technology. I did not experience any timeout at any time I worked at meta.

There are a lot of interesting topics related to the squares. Deleting the templates leads to a "chicken and egg" situation. How to create the articles without the templates / ilustrations?

I am not shure if the communities opinion counts here and would be interested about it. Every project reaches points (size, complexity, etc.) which could not be forseen at its start. Remember the fear about the database grow and the servers, remember deactivation of images in templates etc. The ability to change is somthing natural and essential for surviving. If it is to "early" to use and / or experiment with these constructs they could be "deactivated" and "protected". Then their history and the work on them would not le bost.

Another item I would like to know about relates to the time schedule or assistence. If the templates get deleted when? Is there a bot and a wiki where they can be transfered? http://wikimagic.com/ could be a place. It is a domain which I received as a gift and I have no ambitions about it.

Probably I can not attend Wikimania as intended in spring. Please drop some notes here or at my users page. Best regards Gangleri | Th | T 16:50, August 1, 2005 (UTC)

Use Special:Export to generate an XML dump of the necessary pages, then import them into the wiki of your choice. Set one up yourself if you like. I have nothing about displaying examples of these transformations on wikibooks, I just have something against using MediaWiki to perform those transformations on every page view. Just do the transformations by hand on paper, then transcribe the results into tables. As for the months you spent on it, well, maybe you should try using Matlab or C++ instead, I'm sure you would have found the development time to be much shorter. You could even have put the code online, as a demonstration to students who wish to do a similar thing. -- Tim Starling 20:06, 1 August 2005 (UTC) [reply ]

Halló Tim! Thanks for the answer. I think there are is a simpler approach. Just take a look at Template talk:4x4 type square/T/table/(code). There is no need to copy all / some of the templates at other projects. The mentioned page used as a parameter is a "code factory" for anyone without a need of using Mathlab, C++ etc. Maybe we should ask what users wants this or would be able to insert "(code)" in the existing / future examples available already at the template talk pages in Category:4x4 type square.

addendum: make a preview, copy the generated code and paste it to the destination page.

I do not mind if these templates get lost. If they should be deleted so what, it will not change the world; I will not take this personally. But maybe others can benefit of them and meta would be the place deserving its name.

What I am puzzeled are your objections. Other pages are using templates as well. "putting these templates in any commonly viewed page will cause excessive database load" probably relates to the complexity. This would no longer be an issue with the method described above. Do you agree?

By the way. During the development I reported some discovered bugs about page rendering. It seems that the work was not useless. Best regards Gangleri | Th | T 22:29, August 1, 2005 (UTC) – Gangleri | Th | T 11:03, August 2, 2005 (UTC)

• First I want to point at Meta:About#Current purpose item 2:

"A place to organise and prepare content, to discuss interlanguage co-ordination issues " – to my understanding this applies here

• In response to Aphaia:

1. Maybe you are disappointed because I did not decitate my time for the translations of Wikimania texts. The reason is quite simple: I asked for a login possibility but did not receive any response. Please respect that I do not like to contribute to sites / subdomains where I can not log in.
2. Is "it was annoyed those edits took over meta RC" an argument? Would you have prefered contributions like "This three will never stop growing. It will reach the sky." (compare 1.Mose 11,4) By the way there are many entries in the RC lines at various projects some about real wars I would not like to comment here further. Most of the contributions I made where marked as minor change, quite easy to filter.
3. Mathematics and algebra is not Wikispecies: having a dedicated site. Rome was not build in a day. You are about to stop the work before the description purpose is made and before the various Wikipedia / Wikibook projects about mathematics where contacted and had a chance to respond. Best regards Gangleri | Th | T 21:13, August 3, 2005 (UTC)

I understand the reason these was created, but they not necessarily useful, and don't really save that much typing.

I propose that the group Association_of_Moral_Wikipedians be deleted for the following list of reasons that is by no means exhaustive:

• The notion of this group is absurd since I assume almost everyone thinks, or would want to be, a moral person then this would amount to no more than a roster of users.
• The implication of the group's title is that if you do not agree with their political (addressed in the next point) mission statements then you are not moral - immoral.
• The group explicitly states under Goals that the group's goal is to Establish a Conservative Wikipedia Adminstration. I submit this kind of politiking has no place in a NPOV group.
• That this group has political aims, which have no place on a MediaWiki project, that will exclude anyone who is not or does not view themselvse to be "Conservative".
• That the group's goal is to "Ban Homosexuals, Lesbians, Bisexuals, and other potentially threatening Wikipedians from attaining the Administrative Offices", a kind of exclusionism that is offensive and has no place on Wikipedia.
• Another goal of this group is one of censorship to "Outlaw images, sounds, and any sort of media we may find inappropriate." which is pushing a, their, POV.

As such I submit that this group be deleted without delay.--ShaunMacPherson 14:11, 19 October 2005 (UTC) [reply ]

• Delete: pages of questionable relevance is, I'm guessing, not the official place to, say, place a request for deletion. Also, the pages listed therein should either be deleted or moved here. See also Delete : this page does not belong to meta (note the space before the colon). - dcljr 00:36, 6 Sep 2004 (UTC)
  • Take care of the comments on the page, first. +sj+ 09:47, 22 Sep 2004 (UTC)
  • I absolutely object to the deletion of Delete : this page does not belong to meta. It took me time to write it, it is relevant, and no reason for deletion is given. Anthere 14:33, 13 Oct 2004 (UTC). Additionally, what is the matter with the space before the column, sorry if my english is far from perfect. If you object to my typos, fix them instead of putting the page for deletion.
    • I never said Delete : this page does not belong to meta should be deleted. I said "See also", meaning "Notice this other page which is about page deletion and, by the way, is named strangely." I was actually thinking more along the lines of renaming and/or merging, but I was going to let others decide what they wanted to do with it. - dcljr 02:09, 17 July 2005 (UTC) [reply ]
