Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/archive May 2004
Add links to stupid, incorrect, or otherwise unwanted page titles to the list below (or use the Vote feature) so an admin can find them, check to see that they are indeed not legitimate pages. If the page should be deleted, an admin will, and the link removed from this page (it will show up on the Wikipedia:Deletion log). If the page should not be deleted, an admin will remove the link from this page. Page titles should stay listed for a minimum of a week before a decision is made.
If the content of a page-to-be-deleted exists on some different page, please indicate that, somehow, on the page-to-be-deleted (either by redirecting it to the correctly titled page, or, better for our purposes, putting in a link to it). To facilitate checking that a "page title to be deleted" really ought to be deleted, please don't redirect such pages to page titles to be deleted.
As a general rule, don't delete pages you nominate for deletion. Let someone else do it.
Please review Wikipedia policy on permanent deletion of pages before adding to this page. In the past, about half of the titles added to this page were not deleted. In particular, do not add page titles of stubs that at least have a decent defintion and might in the future become articles. There's no reason to delete those (see Wikipedia:Find or fix a stub). Also, please don't list pages on this page that can easily and sensibly be redirected to another page. E.g., a page called Hume can b e easily and sensibly redirected to David Hume; presidant (a misspelling) can be redirected to president; etc. (Even misspellings can be caught by search engines and provide Wikipedia perfectly relevant traffic!) Similarly, pages in the wrong namespace (for example, user pages in the main namespace), can be redirected and should not be deleted if there are still old links to them.
Discussion about the merits of deleting a page listed here should take place on wikipedia talk:Votes for deletion.
NOTE to Wiki Administrators: Simply deleting a page does not automatically delete its talk page or any subpages. Please delete these pages first, and then the main page. Also, if you delete a page, remove if from this list as well.

- Meaningfulness
- Looks to be some kind of essayish stuff, should probably go to meta. Jeronimo

- Consequentialist justifications of the state
- Some kind of personal essay, should probably go meta. Jeronimo
- Patrick Adams
- Copyright infringement.
- Fall of Jerusalem, AD 70
- The text of this poorly-titled article was already moved to the talk because it was - apparently - hopelessly biased. Should we remove it, or put the text back and hope somebody edits it? Jeronimo 08:25 Sep 7, 2002 *Joseph C. Yates
- Copyright violation.
- Period of the Five Dynasties and the Ten Kindoms - This appeared only on a talk page and included obvious spelling error; should have been deleted instead of redirected in first place. Eclecticology 02:26 Sep 9, 2002 (UTC)
- Wikipedia arranged by topic + Talk
- An old (?) and incomplete (page truncated) topic scheme. I think we already have several similar pages, and this one's obsolete. If we keep it, it should at least go to the Wikipedia: namespace. Jeronimo 11:06 Sep 10, 2002 (UTC)
- Ironman Triathlon
- Copyright violation. Jeronimo
- September 11, 2001 Terrorist Attack/Personal experiences
- Not encyclopedia content, should probably be moved to Meta. Jeronimo 15:14 Sep 10, 2002 (UTC)
- ChristianityTalk
- Page claims not to be the talk of the Christianity page, but for general discussion - should therefore be removed or moved to Meta. Jeronimo

- Although part of the (no longer present) original text, this introduction contains some useful information. Should we remove it and wait for original text to come by, or put it as the main article (with some editing)? Jeronimo 10:22 Sep 11, 2002 (UTC)
