This is an old revision of this page, as edited by Zoe (talk | contribs) at 02:19, 31 March 2003 (Donald Davidson and Swamp-men). The present address (URL) is a permanent link to this revision, which may differ significantly from the current revision.


Add links to unwanted page titles to the list below so an administrator can find them and check whether or not they should be deleted.

Please review Wikipedia policy on permanent deletion of pages before adding to this page. If the page should be deleted, an admin will do so, and the link will be removed from this page (it will show up on the Wikipedia:Deletion log). If the page should not be deleted, someone will remove the link from this page. Page titles should stay listed for a minimum of a week before a decision is made.

As a general rule, don't delete pages you nominate for deletion. Let someone else do it.

In many cases, a page does not need to be deleted. In particular, do not add page titles of stubs that at least have a decent definition 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 that can easily and sensibly be redirected to another page. E.g., a page called Hume can be 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.

Please sign any suggestion for deletion (use four tildes, ~~~~, to sign with your user name and the current date).

If you wish to delete subpages in your own user space, use Wikipedia:Personal subpages to be deleted

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 it from this list as well.

If another solution has been found for some of these pages than deletion, leave them listed for a short while, so the original poster can see why it wasn't deleted, and what did happen to it. This will prevent reposting of the same item.

  • Images of Rachel Corrie - This iconography is pure and simple POV propaganda. -- Zoe
    • I agree and vote for deletion. Danny
    • It's a way of avoiding cluttering up the Rachel Corrie article with photos, and providing additional photos, since some people complained that the former had "too many" photos. There's nothing POV about making extra photos available - or is Images of sheep propaganda? In any case, if it is deemed unnecessary, it should be redirected to Rachel Corrie, not deleted.

  • Control paradox - this needs either to be expanded or deleted - it's currently mostly a list of external links
  • Tiberiu Stefan Stanescu
    • probably a misunderstanding? User page (User:Bugmafia) and wikipedia content are almost identical. It seems an entry for T.S. Stanescu is (at the moment ;-) not justified -- mkrohn 02:14 Mar 27, 2003 (UTC)

    • Recent malformed link to Devi, not linked by any other page. The Anome 09:58 Mar 27, 2003 (UTC)
  • Traumatology - maybe could be redirected instead, but I'm not sure where to -- sannse 21:18 Mar 28, 2003 (UTC)
  • Social Education Movement - an article whose name doesn't match its subject matter, and which seems to be a cut and paste. -- Zoe 01:28 Mar 31, 2003 (UTC)
  • 18 Songs, which is a redirect to 19 Songs, which is a supposed The Unseen album that even their official website doesn't list. It appears to be another figment of Michael's imagination. -- Zoe 01:43 Mar 31, 2003 (UTC)
  • Sri Savang Vatthana - not only does it only contain a picture an dno text, but "Sri" is a title, and if we're going to keep the article, we need to use a new name. -- Zoe 02:13 Mar 31, 2003 (UTC)
