Wikipedia:Requests for deletion
Then follow these instructions on how to request a page for deletion. To find more information on what discussed deletions and quick deletions are:
PLEASE READ THIS
Before nominating: checks and alternatives
changePrior to nominating article(s) for deletion, please be sure to:
- A. Read and understand these policies and guidelines
- The Wikipedia deletion policy, which explains valid grounds for deletion.
- The main four guidelines and policies that inform deletion discussions: notability (WP:N), verifiability (WP:V), reliable sources (WP:RS), and what Wikipedia is not (WP:NOT)
- Subject-specific notability guidelines, which can be found at Category:Wikipedia notability guidelines
- B. Carry out these checks
- Confirm that the article does not meet the criteria for quick deletion.
- If there are verifiability, notability or other sourcing concerns, take reasonable steps to search for reliable sources. (See step D.)
- Review the article's history to check for potential vandalism or poor editing.
- Read the article's talk page for previous nominations and/or that your objections haven't already been dealt with.
- Check "What links here" in the article's sidebar, to see how the page is used and referenced within Wikipedia.
- Check if there are interlanguage links, also in the sidebar, which may lead to more developed and better sourced articles. Likewise, search for native-language sources if the subject has a name in a non-Latin alphabet (such as Japanese or Greek), which is often in the lead.
- C. Consider whether the article could be improved rather than deleted
- If the article can be fixed through normal editing, then it is not a candidate for RfD.
- If the article was recently created, please consider allowing the contributors more time to develop the article.
- If an article has issues try first raising your concerns on the article's talk page, with the main contributors, and/or adding a cleanup tag, such as
{{notability}}
,{{hoax}}
,{{original research}}
, or{{advert}}
; this ensures readers are aware of the problem and may act to fix it. - If the topic is not important enough to merit an article on its own, consider merging or redirecting to an existing article. This should be done particularly if the topic name is a likely search term.
- D. Search for additional sources, if the main concern is notability
- The minimum search expected is a normal Google search, a Google Books search, a Google News search, and a Google News archive search; Google Scholar is suggested for academic subjects.
- If you find a lack of sources, you've completed basic due diligence before nominating. However, if a quick search does find sources, this does not always mean an RfD on a sourcing basis is unwarranted. If you spend more time examining the sources, and determine that they are insufficient, e.g., because they only contain passing mention of the topic, then an RfD nomination may still be appropriate.
- If you find that adequate sources do appear to exist, the fact that they are not yet present in the article is not a proper basis for a nomination. Instead, you should consider citing the sources, or at minimum apply an appropriate template to the page that flags the sourcing concern. Common templates include {{unreferenced}}, {{refimprove}}, {{third-party}}, {{primary sources}} and {{one source}}.
Discussed deletion
change- Click "Change source" at the top of the page to be deleted.
- In the edit box, add this tag: {{rfd|REASON}}. Put it at the top of the page, above the rest of the text. Then, replace the text "REASON" with a short reason why the page should be deleted. Do not be too specific here. You can add more details on the discussion page (see below).
- It is a good idea to write a change summary to let others know what you are doing. You can say "nominating for deletion", "requesting deletion", or something like that.
- Click "Save changes" at the bottom to save the page with the deletion tag at the top.
- If the deletion tag has been added to the page, a box should appear at the top of the article with a link saying "Click here to create a discussion page!" Click that link.
- You should be taken to a page starting with "Creating Wikipedia:Requests for deletion/Requests/..." along with the current year and the name of the article to be deleted. In the edit box, the following tag should have already been added: {{RfD/Preload/Template}} . Replace the text PLACE REASON HERE with a more detailed reason why the page should be deleted.
- It is helpful to include links to the various policy pages about Wikipedia (that begin with Wikipedia:). Here are some examples of this: "This article is [[Wikipedia:COMPLEX|not easy to understand]]" or "Not a [[Wikipedia:notable|notable]] topic''. This will make others more aware of why the page is not acceptable under Wikipedia's policies.
- Click "Save changes" to save the new discussion page when you are done.
- A change summary you can write for this page is "creating discussion page", "starting deletion discussion", or something like that.
- As with the page for deletion, you can check the "Watch the page" box. This will let you know if someone else has replied to your discussion.
- Copy the title of the discussion page to the clipboard. You can do this by dragging the mouse over the text from "Wikipedia" to the end of the page title to highlight it, then right-clicking and selecting "Copy".
- Go to the list of deletion requests, and click "change source" beside the words "Current deletion request discussions".
- At the top of the list of discussions, paste the title from the clipboard (right-click and select "Paste"). Add a pair of curly brackets before and after the title to make a template that will copy the content of the discussion page onto the main deletion page, like this:
- {{Wikipedia:Requests for deletion/Requests/2024/(name of page to be deleted)}}
- Finally, click "Save changes" to add the discussion to the list. If the page saves successfully, you should see your deletion discussion at the top of the list. And that's it!
If this is too complicated for you, there are some gadgets like Twinkle that you can use. This allows you to do it faster.
Quick deletion
changeIf you think a page has nonsense content, add {{non}} to the top of the page.
If you think a page does not say why the subject is important, add {{notable}} to the top of the page.
If you think a page should be deleted per other quick deletion rules, add {{QD|reason}} to the top of the page.
Notifying the user
changeGenerally, you should try to be civil and tell the user that created the page to join the discussion talking about the page. This can be done by adding {{subst:RFDNote|page to be deleted}} ~~~~
to the bottom of their talkpage.
Discussions
change- The discussion is not a vote. Please make suggestions on what action to take, and support your suggestion with reasons.
- Please look at the article before you make a suggestion. Do not make an opinion using only the information given by the nominator. Looking at the history of the article may help to understand the situation.
- Please read other comments and suggestions. They may have helpful information.
- Start your comments or suggestions on a new line. Start with
*
and sign after your comment by adding~~~~
to the end. If you are responding to another editor, put your comment directly below theirs and make sure your comment is indented (using more than one*
). - New users can make suggestions, but their ideas may not be considered, especially if the suggestion seems to be made in bad faith. The opinion of users who had an account before the start of the request may be given more weight or importance.
- Suggestions by users using "sock puppets" (more than one account belonging to the same person) will not be counted.
- Please make only one suggestion. If you change your mind, change your first idea instead of adding a new one. The best way to do this is to put
<s>
before your old idea and</s>
after it. For example, if you wanted to delete an article but now think it should be kept, you could put: "Deletekeep". - If you would like an article to be kept, you can improve the article and try to fix the problems given in the request for deletion. If the reasons given in the nomination are fixed by changing, the nomination can be withdrawn by the nominator, and the deletion discussion will be closed by an administrator.
- Try to avoid confusing suggestions, such as delete and merge.
- Requests for deletion is not a war zone. You can click here for more information, although the page is not in Simple English.
Remember: You do not have to make a suggestion for every nomination. You should think about not making a suggestion if:
- A nomination involves a topic that you do not know much about.
- Everyone has made the same suggestion and you agree with that suggestion.
- All times are in UTC.

- Still we need good sources... BigKrow (talk) 17:39, 26 December 2024 (UTC)
- Rescope the article - The nominator should review BEFORE prior to nominating articles for RFD, as none of these reasons given are valid reasons to delete an article. As well, this article seems to cover the Battle of the Malandari Pass, which occurred in 1586 and formed an important part of the Mughal-Afghan Wars in that time period. Since the article indicates a broader scope, I recommend that the article be re-structured to cover the Mughal-Afghan wars in a more general way. Griff (talk) 19:14, 26 December 2024 (UTC)

change- Comment: Added 5 more articles to this RfD where the same reason applies. --Ferien (talk) 14:28, 25 December 2024 (UTC)
- I regret your deletion policy.
- The reason I created these articles is that the existing articles on WIKIPEDIA have too much content, are too complicated, and contain a lot of unclear information, so I wanted to describe them simply and update the 'information' from time to time.
- Because SIMPLE WIKIPEDIA was known as an independent operating system, I tried to write simple articles here.
- I have to accept that the articles I wrote will be deleted soon. However I don't know what to do in the future.
- Is there no more opportunity for me, who has been trying to convey things to people in an easy and comfortable way. Lades2222 (talk) 04:31, 26 December 2024 (UTC)
- Delete per W:WP:TRIVIA and W:WP:NLIST. These aren't encyclopedic articles. What countries have as foreign policy isn't all that important to us. Nothing to support that this is a subject that sources talk about as a group.Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 14:42, 25 December 2024 (UTC)
- Delete per above. Closing administrator should merge any useful content into relevant articles (as per Ferien's recommendation) as appropriate. Griff (talk) 20:37, 25 December 2024 (UTC)

- Broaden scope and move article to Turk Shahis. I agree with other reviewers that this article clearly meets our criteria, my only recommendation is to match enWP and expand the scope of the article a little bit. The article already does a good job of discussing the Turk Shahis, renaming the article would only allow us to build the article even more and provide more context to the conflicts. @BigKrow: For future nominations to RFD, please outline why you believe the article is a hoax.

Discussion
change- I am against the deletion, there are many aspects of relevance (e.g. GitHub project, trends in Germany, Bing panel), but I think that there have to be done a lot of changes when it comes to wording and style (neutrality) ZitroLike (talk) 23:09, 21 December 2024 (UTC)
- I am against the deletion of the Wikipedia page about Benedikt Hofer. This page does not constitute advertising but instead documents notable achievements and contributions in the areas of gaming, programming education, and digital content creation. It is important to assess the page based on its compliance with Wikipedia’s relevance criteria and its value in providing comprehensive information about a public figure who has made a meaningful impact.
- 1. Alignment with Wikipedia’s Relevance Criteria
- Wikipedia’s guidelines emphasize notability, measurable contributions, and lasting influence as key factors for inclusion. Benedikt Hofer meets these standards in several ways:
- • Public Recognition and Influence: Through his online presence, particularly on YouTube, he has reached a substantial audience with his educational and entertainment content, attracting hundreds of thousands of viewers. His work has gained recognition within the gaming and programming communities, demonstrating his influence in these fields.
- • Educational Contributions and Open-Source Impact: His programming tutorials and projects on platforms like GitHub showcase his commitment to education and innovation. By sharing tools such as AntiCheat systems and making programming concepts accessible to a broad audience, he provides tangible benefits to both the gaming and programming communities.
- 2. Documenting Positive Achievements, Not Advertising
- The page serves to highlight Benedikt Hofer’s accomplishments and contributions, rather than promote or advertise him. Advertising implies a focus on financial gain or self-promotion, which is not the intent of this page. Instead, it documents his:
- • Efforts to educate and inspire others through accessible programming tutorials.
- • Open-source contributions that support innovation and collaboration.
- • Influence as a creator who enhances the Minecraft experience with tools and game modes that have been widely used and appreciated by the community.
- These achievements are notable and valuable, making them deserving of documentation on Wikipedia.
- 3. Addressing Concerns About Neutrality
- While there may be room for improvement in the page’s tone or structure, these issues can be resolved through editing, not deletion. Constructive changes can address any perceived promotional language while maintaining the integrity of the content. Removing the page entirely would disregard the subject’s clear notability and impact.
- 4. Broader Cultural and Community Relevance
- Benedikt Hofer represents a modern trend of digital creators who combine education, entertainment, and community building. His work reflects broader societal trends in content creation and online learning, particularly within the context of gaming. Ignoring contributions like his would create a gap in documenting contemporary digital culture, an area where Wikipedia plays an essential role.
- Conclusion
- The Wikipedia page about Benedikt Hofer fulfills the relevance criteria by showcasing measurable achievements, significant community impact, and educational contributions. Claims of advertising are unfounded, as the page documents positive contributions rather than promoting the individual. While adjustments to the page may be warranted to improve neutrality, deletion is not justified. Retaining and refining the page ensures that Wikipedia continues to provide accurate and comprehensive information about notable figures in contemporary digital culture. 2003:D6:3F1E:6C00:2DEB:B007:8FF5:B19E (talk) 14:07, 22 December 2024 (UTC)

- Leaving an additional comment because I can foresee this RfD potentially setting up a future precedent: while I am personally not a fan of keeping every conceivable redirect (en:WP:CHEAP view), I am not opposed to keeping redirects that are at least plausible and/or technically correct. What I do not want to see happen, though, is future attempts at deliberately creating redirects en masse where the legal citation is expanded in full like we see here in the 591 U.S. 57 (2020) part.

BZPN has nominated this page for deletion for the reason: This redirect seems to be more of a test or the author's own vision - I haven't found such a term for Sterilization of Native American women anywhere on the Internet, because it's basically adding an adjective to the main title.

- That's a good articulation of my thought process - if we stick with the "redirects are cheap" (which they are) so "do whatever!" we end up with redirects with text that isn't mentioned in the target (like here), or uses language that's contrary to the purpose of this Wikipedia (coercive). There needs to be some rational limits on redirects - relevant to the target, would otherwise be a viable page title, appear to be a somewhat viable search term.

- I think we'll agree to disagree on the process, but the comment about why you were blocked on en is relevant when I see the same issues here. This redirect is not something that I think belongs here. This would never be a section heading in an article here, the language is not simple. I would not expect a reader here to be using such terms for searching (and honestly I wouldn't expect it on enwiki either). Simple is good, complex is not.

Why?
- Previous commenter admits they aren't refering to this wiki's way of doing things so I'm not sure what the point is. WP:RFD doesn't allow an exception for IDONTLIKEIT deletions, but if previous commenter is so eager to cite a different wiki's policies… we can see that en: doesn't either.
- As for "this editor's past history with redirects on other projects", if previous commenter really wants to bring a problem from another wiki, immitate the behavior of someone who was blocked by meta:User:WMFOffice for safety reasons toward other Wikipedians, and then has recently been blocked again for WP:OUTING that required WP:OVERSIGHTing… they are free to do so. Invasive Spices (talk) 21:05, 24 December 2024 (UTC)
- Referencing EN wiki's policy is a long-standing precedent. And it is not OUTING - the edit history is a matter of public record on the wikis. The point about your past behavior on EN (and which led to you being blocked on EN) is a completely valid point to make. And I don't see how Griffinofwales is any close to disclosing oversightable information. What are you trying to insinuate here? Chenzw Talk 03:09, 25 December 2024 (UTC)
- Delete - per Griffinofwales, and I just want to note that it is not correct to use WP:NOT to advance the claim that this RfD is baseless. If we do that, that makes every redirect immune from the RfD process (and thus we would reference EN's policy and the reasonableness test here, as above). Chenzw Talk 08:50, 24 December 2024 (UTC)
- WP:RFD cites WP:NOT. Therefore…? Invasive Spices (talk) 21:06, 24 December 2024 (UTC)

change- Merge any useful content into Republic of Mahabad. This battle was actually a very important battle in the establishment of the republic, and if I could find some reliable sources (even in a different language) I could even be persuaded to keep the article. However, since I can't find any that provide in-depth coverage on the battle, merging is the best solution. Griff (talk) 14:43, 26 December 2024 (UTC)

change- no Wikipedia page BigKrow (talk) 02:59, 20 December 2024 (UTC)
- Keep - As I said previously 'Paulo Leão' is as important or more important than countless other non-superstar artists present on Wikipedia. I could mention them, but I believe that would be unethical. So, by comparison, it is incoherent to exclude this page and keep those of other, much less important artists. Furthermore, yes, 'Paulo Leão' made a 'unique, prolific and innovative contribution' in the artistic field: in 1985 he created the 'Teatro dos Sentidos' - a method by which the public can watch a show with all their senses (and not just with vision and hearing). The artist is also included in the most important Brazilian cultural encyclopedia - the Enciclopedia Itaú Cultural - mentioned in one of the citations. And in these internet times, it's also good to remember that not all important artists (present and past) have a large fan base as that doesn't measure anything. This is just a recent invention of History. --Katzin-Kohen (talk) 06:49, 26 December 2024 (UTC)
- @BigKrow Keep Hello friends! Regarding the page deletion request, I would like to say that the artist Paulo Leão may not be as famous as a super star but he is as important as many other non-famous artists that are heard on Wikipedia. And he is important in Brazil. He has won so many awards in his country and around the world. He worked at TV Globo and in feature films. He produced and directed other internationally award-winning films. So I will continue to make updates to increase his page with more content in the hope that the page remains active. Thank you very much. Thank you very much.--Katzin-Kohen (talk) 03:19, 20 December 2024 (UTC)
- Delete - I have reviewed the article and the criteria contained in the appropriate notability guideline for this article and made the following findings:
- Of the roles Paulo has held, none of them have been important roles in notable films
- The article does not show that Paulo has a large fan base
- The article does not indicate that Paulo has made unique, prolific or innovative contributions in his field
- Although this article is well-written and detailed, I believe that the subject of the article does not meet our inclusion criteria at this time. -Griff (talk) 01:44, 26 December 2024 (UTC)

change- Seems suspicious. BigKrow (talk) 02:56, 20 December 2024 (UTC)
- Notable as WP:CRIME says that, A person who is known only in connection with a criminal event or trial should not normally be the subject of a separate Wikipedia article if there is an existing article that could incorporate the available encyclopedic material relating to that person.
- Where there is such an existing article, it may be appropriate to create a sub-article, but only if this is necessitated by considerations of article size.
- Where there are no appropriate existing articles, the criminal or victim in question should be the subject of a Wikipedia article only if one of the following applies:
- For victims, and those wrongly accused or wrongly convicted of a crime (or crimes),
- For perpetrators,
- The victim of the crime is a renowned national or international figure, including, but not limited to, politicians or celebrities; or
- The motivation for the crime or the execution of the crime is unusual—or has otherwise been considered noteworthy—such that it is a well-documented historic event. Generally, historic significance is indicated by sustained coverage of the event in reliable secondary sources which persists beyond contemporaneous news coverage and devotes significant attention to the individual's role.
- Note: A living person accused of a crime is presumed not guilty unless and until the contrary is decided by a court of law. Editors must give serious consideration to not creating an article on an alleged perpetrator when no conviction is yet secured. 103.230.106.16 (talk) 03:29, 20 December 2024 (UTC)

BZPN has nominated this page for deletion for the reason: Complex, written by LLM, but most importantly, it's a hoax. Nothing like "bananophobia" has ever been scientifically or medically described (not counting the pseudo-medical inventions of newspapers and portals, which of course cannot be the basis for describing the disease). It's more of an AI creation. BZPN (talk) 19:44, 18 December 2024 (UTC)

Discussion
change- There are numerous links to bananaphobia, and many cases are reported and widely available to read online. Whilst I agree this is not a common phobia, simply stating this is a hoax and AI created diminishes the actual issues that are felt by suffers. A simple online search will a show people who auffer from this. I suggest you watch the ITV news reader Charlene White talk about this on Loose Women. It is not for those who do not suffer from this to decide if it exists or not, that decision rests solely with those who do suffer from it. Those who do suffer describe their feelings in detail and these wholly align with the feeling of other phobia sufferers. I am not aware of any articles referencing pseudo-medical inventions in relation to this. 46.183.109.221 (talk) 20:05, 18 December 2024 (UTC)
- Just stop lying. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and the diseases described here must be medically and scientifically confirmed. We do not describe Internet inventions as real diseases, and interviews on pseudomedical portals or joke reports in newspapers have no significance here. BZPN (talk) 20:14, 18 December 2024 (UTC)
- P.S. there is no entry with this title in any other wiki and it is not mentioned in any of the medical/scientific articles, and enwiki in two biographies only mentions this word as an invention of people. BZPN (talk) 20:21, 18 December 2024 (UTC)
- A phobia is not a disease, it is classes as an anxiety disorder. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phobia
- A phobia is by definition an irrational fear, how is this less legitimate than coulrophobia the fear of clowns.
- It is not for you to decide what does or does not cause a person anxiety. Neither you nor I can deny anyone their irrational fear, whether is it of a clowns, confined spaces or bananas. You do not get to decide. Medical or scientific confirmation of a phobia can only be acheived by exposure to the item and observing the reaction. If exposure to bananas illicits the same response in the sufferer as an arachnophobe would have reacting to a spider then the criteria for a phobia is met. As for this word being an invention of people, that is exactly how all words are formed. This is the basis of how all language evolves. M1tpx (talk) 09:06, 19 December 2024 (UTC)
- And it's also not up to you to decide whether this phobia is real. Before you even want to start any discussion here, I recommend that you read the policies and guidelines, especially WP:VER and WP:NOT. I will repeat for the last time - an encyclopedia is not the place to describe scientifically unconfirmed diseases invented by people without medical basis. Phobias/other mental disorders must be confirmed by scientific/medical sources and studies. BZPN (talk) 09:13, 19 December 2024 (UTC)
- P.S. according to the enwiki article (en:Phobia), which you mentioned, a phobia must be medically classified, most often under the ICD-11 or DSM-5 classification. The banana-pseudophobia discussed here has never been included in any medical classification. BZPN (talk) 09:18, 19 December 2024 (UTC)

- Delete - While there are sources describing people with this "phobia", I do not believe it meets the significant coverage requirement for an article until articles of a medical nature are written describing this phobia.

change- Baroque is the name for a time period. In this context we can talk about baroque architecture, baroque music, baroque painting, baroque furniture, baroque sculpture etc. It is clear thatunless we count art historians among us we are not going to get in-depth articles on all of them. It was me who created this page, in 2007. It is clear that what we now call 'baroque' is mostly about churches, but there are some houses in that stlye too. Examples are the Pavionn de l'horloge (part of the Louvre today), Greenwich hospital, or (parts of) many palaces. Just because a page is short doesn't mean it doesn't have a reason for existing. Like wqith Gothic Architecture, the few buildings that aren't Churches/Cathedrals, and that are built in Gothic style, this likely is of similar interest. That there's so little change in the long years its existence just tells me that the article isn't viewed often, or is not of particular interee in extenfing it. Nevertheless I'd favor keeping it... --Eptalon (talk) 14:27, 18 December 2024 (UTC)
- The actual content doesn't say anything about baroque houses at all - probably the only solution to keep this article would be to change the content to redirect to baroque. BZPN (talk) 22:38, 18 December 2024 (UTC)
