Wikipedia talk:Criteria for speedy deletion/Explanations

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] A suggestion to do

• Dig into the archived discussions of Wikipedia talk:Criteria for speedy deletion and copy the reasons why some of these CSD criteria were passed. Zzyzx11 (Talk) 07:10, 16 September 2006 (UTC)
  • Also check WP:CSD#Non-criteria. Zzyzx11 (Talk) 08:26, 16 September 2006 (UTC)
    • Oops, I forgot to actually add the links to the specific archived discussions. Need to do that soon. Zzyzx11 (Talk) 15:50, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Unsourced

This page makes several claims that things are "often" used in such-and-such way, or that users "frequently" do this-and-that, but does not provide sources for any of those. It would seem, then, that these are the perceptions of the authors of this essay, rather than facts or statistics. >Radiant< 13:29, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

I'm fixing it up. We don't need items for obvious ones like patent nonsense that just repeat what's already on the main page. Also adding what are the central reasons for most of these. —Centrx→talk • 15:24, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

Done, except for the image criteria. —Centrx→talk • 16:59, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

Ok, that's better. Thanks! >Radiant< 17:15, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

Based on your comments, I think that this page just should consist of very brief explanations, then links to the relevant discussions. No opinions needed on here. Zzyzx11 (Talk) 22:33, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

• Sounds good to me. I always prefer fact over opinion. >Radiant< 07:59, 10 October 2006 (UTC)
