Wikipedia:Miscellany For 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:, MOS: (in the unlikely event it ever contains a page that is not a redirect or one of the 6 disambiguation pages) and the various Talk: namespaces
  • Userboxes, regardless of the namespace
  • 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.

Before nominating a page for deletion

Before nominating a page for deletion, please consider these guidelines:

Deleting pages in your own userspace
  • If you want to have your own userpage or a draft you created deleted, there is no need to list it here; simply tag it with {{db-userreq}} or {{db-u1}} if it is a userpage, or {{db-author}} or {{db-g7}} if it is a draft. If you wish to clear your user talk page or sandbox, just blank it.
Duplications in draftspace?
  • Duplications in draftspace are usually satisfactorily fixed by redirection. If the material is in mainspace, redirect the draft to the article, or a section of the article. If multiple draft pages on the same topic have been created, tag them for merging. See WP:SRE.
Deleting pages in other people's userspace
  • Consider explaining your concerns on the user's talk page with a personal note or by adding {{subst:Uw-userpage}} ~~~~  to their talk page. This step assumes good faith and civility; often the user is simply unaware of the guidelines, and the page can either be fixed or speedily deleted using {{db-userreq}}.
  • Take care not to bite newcomers – sometimes using the {{subst:welcome}} or {{subst:welcomeg}} template and a pointer to WP:UP would be best first.
  • Problematic userspace material is often addressed by the User pages guidelines including in some cases removal by any user or tagging to clarify the content or to prevent external search engine indexing. (Examples include copies of old, deleted, or disputed material, problematic drafts, promotional material, offensive material, inappropriate links, 'spoofing' of the MediaWiki interface, disruptive HTML, invitations or advocacy of disruption, certain kinds of images and image galleries, etc) If your concern relates to these areas consider these approaches as well, or instead of, deletion.
  • User pages about Wikipedia-related matters by established users usually do not qualify for deletion.
  • Articles that were recently deleted at AfD and then moved to userspace are generally not deleted unless they have lingered in userspace for an extended period of time without improvement to address the concerns that resulted in their deletion at AfD, or their content otherwise violates a global content policy such as our policies on Biographies of living persons that applies to any namespace.
Policies, guidelines and process pages
  • Established pages and their sub-pages should not be nominated, as such nominations will probably be considered disruptive, and the ensuing discussions closed early. This is not a forum for modifying or revoking policy. Instead consider tagging the policy as {{historical}} or redirecting it somewhere.
  • Proposals still under discussion generally should not be nominated. If you oppose a proposal, discuss it on the policy page's discussion page. Consider being bold and improving the proposal. Modify the proposal so that it gains consensus. Also note that even if a policy fails to gain consensus, it is often useful to retain it as a historical record, for the benefit of future editors.
WikiProjects and their subpages
  • It is generally preferable that inactive WikiProjects not be deleted, but instead be marked as {{WikiProject status|inactive}}, redirected to a relevant WikiProject, or changed to a task force of a parent WikiProject, unless the WikiProject was incompletely created or is entirely undesirable.
  • WikiProjects that were never very active and which do not have substantial historical discussions (meaning multiple discussions over an extended period of time) on the project talk page should not be tagged as {{historical}}; reserve this tag for historically active projects that have, over time, been replaced by other processes or that contain substantial discussion (as defined above) of the organization of a significant area of Wikipedia. Before deletion of an inactive project with a founder or other formerly active members who are active elsewhere on Wikipedia, consider userfication.
  • Notify the main WikiProject talk page when nominating any WikiProject subpage, in addition to standard notification of the page creator.
Alternatives to deletion
  • Normal editing that doesn't require the use of any administrator tools, such as merging the page into another page or renaming it, can often resolve problems.
  • Pages in the wrong namespace (e.g. an article in Wikipedia namespace), can simply be moved and then tag the redirect for speedy deletion using {{db-g6|rationale= it's a redirect left after a cross-namespace move}}. Notify the author of the original article of the cross-namespace move.
Alternatives to MfD
  • Speedy deletion If the page clearly satisfies a "general" or "user" speedy deletion criterion, tag it with the appropriate template. Be sure to read the entire criterion, as some do not apply in the user space.

Please familiarize yourself with the following policies

How to list pages for deletion

Please check the aforementioned list of deletion discussion areas to check that you are in the right area. Then follow these instructions:

Instructions on listing pages for deletion:

To list a page for deletion, follow this three-step process: (replace PageName with the name of the page, including its namespace, to be deleted)

Note: Users must be logged in to complete step II. An unregistered user who wishes to nominate a page for deletion should complete step I and post their reasoning on Wikipedia talk:Miscellany for deletion with a notification to a registered user to complete the process.

I.
Edit PageName:

Enter the following text at the top of the page you are listing for deletion:

{{mfd|1={{subst:FULLPAGENAME}}}}
for a second or subsequent nomination use {{mfdx|2nd}}

or

{{mfd|GroupName}}
if nominating several similar related pages in an umbrella nomination. Choose a suitable name as GroupName and use it on each page.
If the nomination is for a userbox or similarly transcluded page, use {{subst:mfd-inline}} so as to not mess up the formatting for the userbox.
Use {{subst:mfd-inline|GroupName}} for a group nomination of several related userboxes or similarly transcluded pages.
  • Please include in the edit summary the phrase
    Added MfD nomination at [[Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/PageName]]
    replace PageName with the name of the page that is up for deletion.
  • Please don't mark your edit summary as a minor edit.
  • Check the "Watch this page" box if you would like to follow the page in your watchlist. This may help you to notice if your MfD tag is removed by someone.
  • Save the page
II.
Create its MfD subpage.

The resulting MfD box at the top of the page should contain the link "this page's entry"

  • Click that link to open the page's deletion discussion page.
  • Insert this text:
{{subst:mfd2| pg={{subst:#titleparts:{{subst:PAGENAME}}||2}}| text=Reason why the page should be deleted}} ~~~~
replacing Reason... with your reasons why the page should be deleted and sign the page. Do not substitute the pagename, as this will occur automatically.
  • Consider checking "Watch this page" to follow the progress of the debate.
  • Please use an edit summary such as
    Creating deletion discussion page for [[PageName]]

    replacing PageName with the name of the page you are proposing for deletion.
  • If appropriate, inform members of the most relevant WikiProjects through one or more "deletion sorting lists". Then add a {{subst:delsort|<topic>|<signature>}} template to the nomination, to insert a note that this has been done.
  • Save the page.
III.
Add a line to MfD.

Follow   this edit link   and at the top of the list add a line:

{{subst:mfd3| pg=PageName}}
Put the page's name in place of "PageName".
  • Include the discussion page's name in your edit summary like
    Added [[Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/PageName]]
    replacing PageName with the name of the page you are proposing for deletion.
  • Save the page.
  • If nominating a page that has been nominated before, use the page's name in place of "PageName" and add
{{priorxfd|PageName}}
in the nominated page deletion discussion area to link to the previous discussions and then save the page using an edit summary such as
Added [[Template:priorxfd]] to link to prior discussions.
  • If nominating a page from someone else's userspace, notify them on their main talk page.
    For other pages, while not required, it is generally considered civil to notify the good-faith creator and any main contributors of the miscellany that you are nominating. To find the main contributors, look in the page history or talk page of the page and/or use TDS' Article Contribution Counter or Wikipedia Page History Statistics. For your convenience, you may add

    {{subst:mfd notice|PageName}} ~~~~

    to their talk page in the "edit source" section, replacing PageName with the pagename. Please use an edit summary such as

    Notice of deletion discussion at [[Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/PageName]]

    replacing PageName with the name of the nomination page you are proposing for deletion.
  • If the user has not edited in a while, consider sending the user an email to notify them about the MfD if the MfD concerns their user pages.
  • If you are nominating a WikiProject, please post a notice at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Council, in addition to the project's talk page and the talk pages of the founder and active members.

Draft:EMD GT42CU AC (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs) – (View MfD)​

Duplicate of Downer EDI Rail GT42CU AC

Regular IP editor with a very strange editing pattern and causing a lot of disruption for other editors to clean up.

This should be deleted, not just shuttled around the namespaces again to simply make more work for everyone. Andy Dingley (talk) 15:33, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

User:NOMAN ABBASS/sandbox (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs) – (View MfD)​

Promotional article, from an account that is continually adding spamlinks Andy Dingley (talk) 12:40, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. The page is, purportedly, a guide to removing swimming pools, so to begin with it is not something that could become an article WP:NOTHOWTO. The "sources" fall into four categories: tangentially related, completely unrelated (such as Smith, J. (2020). "Cost Analysis of Above-Ground Pool Removal." Journal of Home Improvement. Retrieved from https://www.jstor.org/stable/1234567; there is no Journal of Home Improvement, and the link points at a response paper in Journal of Farm Economics from 1956), nonexistent (Smith, John. (2021). "Pool Maintenance and Removal." Springer Publishing. ISBN 123456789 – that John Smith appears to be quite an authority in the field...), and pools-now.com, which is the website the sandbox author is here to promote. Let's not assist them. --bonadea contributions talk 14:43, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Draft:Aurizon AL class (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs) – (View MfD)​

Draft:EMD GT42CU ACe (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs) – (View MfD)​

Duplicate of Downer EDI Rail GT42CU ACe Andy Dingley (talk) 11:56, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I expect Liz draftified it because it looks very much like a valid article (having just been copied from one). But we don't need duplicates with (POV?) renames. Maybe what we really needed for all of these was a rename of the existing article to a better name. But that needs a proposal, sourcing and discussion before any action.
It's quite possible that EMD (a big maker of such things) is a better name prefix for these articles than their operator. But that's questionable and would need external material to back it up. I'd have definite opinions and sources if these were GB locos, but Australia is outside my knowledge. Andy Dingley (talk) 15:21, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Wrong namespace. Duplicate of Downer EDI Rail GT42CU AC

Portal:Genocide (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs) – (View MfD)​

Created in 2007, remained abandoned until 2018 when received few editions, but they have maintained the portal's obsolete structure. Statics subpages like Portal:Genocide/Selected article/1 and Portal:Genocide/Selected article/14 shows incorrect information. Not supported by any Wikiproject. Page views in the past 30 days, 747, against 51,354 views of main article. This portal is particularly problematic per WP:NPOV, does not make clear the criteria for displaying content relationships. Example, "Related portals" linking genocide to politics, religion or communism. Guilherme Burn (talk) 00:49, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Net negative for readers. Readers who get to the end of the Genocide article should not click on the link to Portal:Genocide but should read another article about genocide if they want to keep learning about this topic.—Alalch E. 01:23, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: As an inferior content fork of Genocide for readers, and an inferior redundant page to Wikipedia:WikiProject Human rights for editors and potential editors, it is for all purposes a negative and should be culled. Nobody seems interested in the records of Wikipedia’s experiment of internet navigation by portals, an experiment that was already failed before the start of Wikipedia, eclipsed by internet search engines, so, delete without worrying about archiving.

Unused discussion page from 2009; single author. Tule-hog (talk) 20:52, 6 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Serves no purpose and has no value. Gonnym (talk) 22:50, 6 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Don't just delete It's supposed to be transcluded from Talk:Wiki/Archive 2#New version, but the subpage transclusion was broken when it was archived to that page. We might move it to Talk:Wiki/Archive 2/lede so the subpage transclusion works, or subst it into that archive before deleting it, or fix the archive page to transclude it from where it is now. Anomie 00:44, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Withdrawn: Good catch, I should have checked through the archives more thoroughly. I went ahead with moving to a subpage of the archive; maybe I'll come back to redirect-for-deletion the current page later. Tule-hog (talk) 03:15, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Draft:Wikipedia:WikiProject People (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs) – (View MfD)​

This is not a proper way to create a WikiProject. And also it is redundant to WikiProject Biography. Should we merge it? Vitaium (talk) 15:58, 6 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Draft:Wikipedia:WikiProject Roblox (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs) – (View MfD)​

Unlike the previously deleted WikiProject Roblox, this one is a draft version created by an IP. Sadly, many Roblox games, players and any other stuffs aren't notable enough to qualify as article and many of that sources for Roblox related topic are generally unreliable and the creator itself did not follow the guideline how to create a WikiProject. Vitaium (talk) 00:22, 6 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak Delete because we are here. This is a rejected draft, and could have been left alone for six months, but, as the nominator says, it is going nowhere, and is not a draft article, but a draft WikiProject, which is not the way WikiProjects come into being.

Promotional draft written by the company's founder (see User:Kenneth Palmestål) whose mininimal edit history seems to be mostly about promoting his company.
