Wikiversity:Requests for Deletion

This page seeks to resolve the question whether a page or file should be deleted through consensus. If a wikiversity page is not causing harm, do not rush to detete it. Assume good faith: the page might be useful to some current or future Wikiversity participant. Make use of the options listed at Wikiversity:Welcome templates before you decide to delete a page.

Pages are listed here for a period of at least five days. After the appropriate period, an admin looks at the page or file and determines whether consensus for deletion has been reached. If it has, the page is deleted. The period of time starts at the submission of the deletion request on this page.

This page is also the proper venue for discussing undeletion requests. If you object to speedy deletion of an article, or wish to overturn another deletion request, please list it here. An admin may undelete it for the duration of the vote, so that users may view the article they are voting on.

You can list images, categories or pages for speedy deletion by putting {{delete}} on the page in question.

There is no deletion policy yet. Base your decisions on common sense: if it's obvious it doesn't belong, tag it for speedy deletion. If you think it's worthy of a discussion, nominate it here.

See the Deletion Log or the deletion archives to see what pages have been deleted.

How to list a page here

Template:Sockpuppet

I don't really see the point. Being a sock puppet of another user is not against policy, sock puppet abuse is. If the latter is suspected, other actions need to be taken than putting a template on a user page. -- sebmol ^? 17:16, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

Wikiversity needs something more than templates for dealing with persistent vandals. Wikiversity is going to need some kind of checkuser page. --JWSchmidt 17:32, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

Agreed. I'll get an account soon... --82.42.145.158 17:36, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

The Royal Theatretime Briefs Company

Reason: It's an obvious Wikipedia candidate - no relevance to Wikiversity. Cormaggio 18:58, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

Discussion: What should we do with these kinds of articles? Can we move them? The author, I presume, meant to add this to WP - deleting will force them to re-do their work. Is that all we can do? Cormaggio 18:58, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

Redirect Pages created after importation from wikibooks

REASON -- Matteo 21:30, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

• ARGUMENTS - The Process I would like to use is:

1. Direct links in wikibooks away from redirects in wikiversity b:Category:Wikiversity Moved Pages
2. Check the redirect pages for pages that link to it and correct the links.
3. RfD the pages that are redirects

This seems logical to me - any objections? Cormaggio 15:54, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

we should add the/a template(+category) Redirects for Deletion Matteo 19:13, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
