[edit] Historical Saskatchewan License Plates
I live in Saskatchewan and have a few plates. I thought there would be some content, but all that is on this page is a picture and a list of dates. It needs to be worked on or gotten rid of, since it doesn't seem right that it is there with no real content for about a month. Did the creator abandon it? Borox 18:47, 10 July 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. No real use (unencyclopedic), and unfilled, I think it deserves some other place. -mysekurity 20:00, 10 July 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. I don't see how a list of sequential dates and a single picture is encyclopedic. Zhatt 20:39, July 10, 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. Uvaduck 21:17, 10 July 2005 (UTC)
- Comment. This seems to be from the same series as Historical North Carolina License Plates and Historical Mississippi License Plates which recently survived a VfD. Pburka 21:45, 10 July 2005 (UTC)
- Keep as a stub, otherwise the people who are into license plates are going to just have a red link in the articles as they create them. Staleness isn't a reason to delete. SchmuckyTheCat 22:21, 10 July 2005 (UTC)
- Keep, per what Pburka said. This is part of a series which should eventually include all US states and Canadian provinces. I should also point out that the "user" who nominated this for a VFD created their account on 10 July and nominated this article for VFD 22 minutes afater they created their account. This VFD should be considered an invalid nomination. Kaibabsquirrel 01:11, 11 July 2005 (UTC)
- Keep per Pburka. 23skidoo 02:40, 11 July 2005 (UTC)
- Keep all of the platecruft. -- Jonel | Speak 04:01, 11 July 2005 (UTC)
- Keep per Pburka. This project can be expanded to other countries too. — Instantnood 07:15, July 11, 2005 (UTC)
- Keep Keep Keep -- Jerry Crimson Mann 07:31, 11 July 2005 (UTC)
- Keep License plates have some historical and cultural value.--Simon.Pole 07:54, 11 July 2005 (UTC)
Keep as per Kaibabsquirrel. DoubleBlue (Talk) 08:04, 11 July 2005 (UTC)- Changed vote to delete. I'm inclined to agree with Nabla below. There should be some attempt at a written article here, like Historical Mississippi License Plates has, rather than just posting an image. DoubleBlue (Talk) 18:27, 18 July 2005 (UTC)
- Weak delete. I know the others have survived VfD, and likely this will too, but I honestly don't see how this can be very encyclopedic, sorry. OTOH, if this article were to actually describe, in text, some of the more original plate designs, I'd consider changing my vote. --Deathphoenix 13:19, 12 July 2005 (UTC)
- Speedy delete, no content other than the title. Let the red links stand. Nabla 04:33, 17 July 2005 (UTC)
