Proposed deletion |
Miscellany for deletion (MfD) is a place where Wikipedians decide what should be done with problematic pages in the namespaces which aren't covered by other specialized deletion discussion areas. Items sent here are usually discussed for seven days; then they are either deleted by an administrator or kept, based on community consensus as evident from the discussion, consistent with policy, and with careful judgment of the rough consensus if required.
Filtered versions of the page are available at
Information on the process
What may be nominated for deletion here:
- Pages not covered by other XFD venues, including pages in these namespaces: Draft:, Help:, Portal:, MediaWiki:, Wikipedia: (including WikiProjects), User:, TimedText: and the various Talk: namespaces
- Userboxes (regardless of namespace)
- Pages in the File namespace that have a local description page but no local file (if there is a local file, Wikipedia:Files for discussion is the right venue)
- Any other page, that is not in article space, where there is dispute as to the correct XfD venue.
Requests to undelete pages deleted after discussion here, and debate whether discussions here have been properly closed, both take place at Wikipedia:Deletion review, in accordance with Wikipedia's undeletion policy.

Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/User:Dull bull/sandbox |
---|
The result of the discussion was: speedy delete by User:Explicit. RL0919 (talk) 10:35, 18 June 2024 (UTC) User:Dull bull/sandboxThis is a non-obvious hoax. A naïve Google search finds no evidence that Gatorade was invented by Sean Simms. Our article shows that it was invented by Robert Cade and others. There is a Sean Simms who played American football and became an actor, and does not appear to have been associated with Gatorade. There is no evidence that any Sean Simms played for the New York Yankees. If this were not invented, it would be an unreferenced biography of a living person, which is not permitted but could be ignored in a sandbox. As it is, this is a non-obvious hoax.

yi've litreally put the founding article back as it gained intrest by non-piccadillians. At this point too I'm slowly losing hope for this project. No one actually gave this project a shot and decided to clown on me just because i had to clean alot of things up. I dont mean any harm. im sorry.

The result of the discussion was: keep. Snowing. (non-admin closure) Queen of Hearts talk 00:07, 20 June 2024 (UTC) User:Wesalius/modelThe predicted date for reaching 7 million articles will likely be inaccurate. Also, it will just keep changing every day, so we will never know exactly when Wikipedia will reach 7 million articles. So, such predictions are pointless and this user subpage (transcluded at User:Wbm1058) should be deleted. GTrang (talk) 14:46, 13 June 2024 (UTC)

I'm not sure this is something we need; I'm not even sure this is something I understand, and I don't see how this is really relevant to Wikipedia editing. The basic setup is already difficult: what does diving have to do with whether you tackled someone earlier on or not? Drmies (talk) 20:03, 8 June 2024 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Wikipedia:9t5 User Page Contest |
---|
The result of the discussion was: Userfy. Whpq (talk) 23:49, 18 June 2024 (UTC) Wikipedia:9t5 User Page Contest
Because of WP:NOTSOCIALNETWORK, and because the page does not meet any of the criteria listed as appropriate under Wikipedia:Project namespace#Pages within project namespace. Possibly also because of WP:NOTHERE, as it seems to provide monetary incentives for users to do something else using Wikipedia's platform other than improve the encyclopedia. Maybe a request at some central forum to create something like this and demonstrate community support for it might overcome some of these objections, but I don't know that this is supportable coming from an individual initiative. If this were commonly replicated by other users, or even if this one initiative attracted wide participation it seems like it could hurt the goal of the encyclopedia.

The result of the discussion was: no consensus. Extraordinary Writ (talk) 00:34, 17 June 2024 (UTC) User:Rawen Ab/Userboxes/Google Maps Local Guide
This is not a userbox, and it is not serving any purpose in userspace. I will remove it from its listing at Wikipedia:Userboxes/Internet/Websites. Are there grounds for uncontroversial deletion? TNstingray (talk) 22:34, 3 June 2024 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Draft:Amina Hassan Sheikh |
---|
The result of the discussion was: redirect to Amina Hassan Sheikh. At raw count, I'm looking at five votes (counting Robert McClenon) to redirect and two votes to histmerge the first five revisions. The two votes to histmerge hinge on giving proper creation credit of the article to the creation of the draft; but histmerges, per WP:HISTMERGE, are for fixing copyright attribution issues, and the draft text is unrelated to the text currently in the article. Supporters of redirecting convincingly argue that the technical and relevance problems with a histmerge make redirection the best option. theleekycauldron (talk • she/her) 04:38, 17 June 2024 (UTC) Draft:Amina Hassan SheikhThe BLP is already in the main NS at Amina Hassan. This draft lacks citations and contains WP:OR. —Saqib (talk | contribs) 21:42, 6 May 2024 (UTC)
