Skip to: Table of contents / current discussions / old business (bottom). |
Please do not nominate your user page (or subpages of it) for deletion here. Instead, add {{db-userreq}} at the top of any such page you no longer wish to keep; an administrator will then delete the page. See Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion for more information. |

Proposed deletion |
Miscellany for deletion (MfD) is a place where Wikipedians decide what should be done with problematic pages in the namespaces which aren't covered by other specialized deletion discussion areas. Items sent here are usually discussed for seven days; then they are either deleted by an administrator or kept, based on community consensus as evident from the discussion, consistent with policy, and with careful judgment of the rough consensus if required.
Filtered versions of the page are available at
Information on the process[edit]
What may be nominated for deletion here:
- Pages not covered by other XFD venues, including pages in these namespaces: Draft:, Help:, Portal:, MediaWiki:, Wikipedia: (including WikiProjects), User:, TimedText: and the various Talk: namespaces
- Userboxes (regardless of namespace)
- Pages in the File namespace that have a local description page but no local file (if there is a local file, Wikipedia:Files for discussion is the right venue)
- Any other page, that is not in article space, where there is dispute as to the correct XfD venue.
Requests to undelete pages deleted after discussion here, and debate whether discussions here have been properly closed, both take place at Wikipedia:Deletion review, in accordance with Wikipedia's undeletion policy.

Draft:Come Home to Me (album)[edit]
Hoax draft. William Graham talk 14:30, 5 June 2024 (UTC)
Draft:WWE Raw is War[edit]
Created by blocked IP user. Incorrect information and hoax logo. Any true information already exists in WWE Raw. William Graham talk 14:28, 5 June 2024 (UTC) What's the criteria for deletion of unpublished pages because, despite my contribution to the page, I couldn't publish it.
Draft:Ivan Ssewankambo[edit]
NOTWEBHOST - this is a blatant attempt to share their CV on WP Gbawden (talk) 07:37, 5 June 2024 (UTC)

Draft:Popeye And Pink Panther's Party/Popeye And Pals (MeTV)[edit]
- Draft:Popeye And Pink Panther's Party/Popeye And Pals (MeTV) (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs) – (View MfD)
No evidence of any notability and fails WP:NOTDIR. Additionally, I call into question WP:NOTWEBHOST, since there's been no edits displaying any intent to add any sources to this draft for meeting main space requirements. All edits by the contributing author have thus far been to add each week's latest aired episode titles, a pattern going on 9+ months now. Zinnober9 (talk) 06:44, 5 June 2024 (UTC)
- Keep - It's a draft, and drafts are not deleted for notability. This is not a case of web hosting because this is a good faith draft, although it will not be accepted in its current condition. Robert McClenon (talk) 14:31, 5 June 2024 (UTC)

- Keep as per Curbon7. User:Rahio1234 - Are you reviewing drafts in New Page Patrol using the same criteria as are applied to new articles? Robert McClenon (talk) 14:19, 5 June 2024 (UTC)
- Comment - Do we need better instructions for reviewers so as to minimize the mistaken good faith nomination of drafts for lack of notability? Robert McClenon (talk) 14:19, 5 June 2024 (UTC)

User:Rawen Ab/Userboxes/Google Maps Local Guide[edit]
- User:Rawen Ab/Userboxes/Google Maps Local Guide (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs) – (View MfD)
This is not a userbox, and it is not serving any purpose in userspace. I will remove it from its listing at Wikipedia:Userboxes/Internet/Websites. Are there grounds for uncontroversial deletion? TNstingray (talk) 22:34, 3 June 2024 (UTC)
- Delete, unfortunately CSD G1 doesn't apply here. It could be tagged as U5, but there is clearly disagreement upon admins. thetechie@enwiki: ~/talk/ $ 23:53, 3 June 2024 (UTC)
- Delete, agree with the above. Bduke (talk) 05:24, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
- Keep. What's the purpose of deleting it? The editor has been active this year and could decide to format it as a userbox as it seems to meet
Work in progress or material that you may come back to in future (usually on subpages)
and/orExperimentation (usually on subpages)
from WP:UPYES, for example. Skynxnex (talk) 17:45, 4 June 2024 (UTC) - Keep: I assume this is meant to be something along the lines of "This user is a Google Maps Local Guide" but was not completed for whatever reason. Concur with removing it off the listing as it is incomplete, but is otherwise a non-obtrusive work-in-progress. Curbon7 (talk) 06:42, 5 June 2024 (UTC)
User talk:Anonymy365[edit]
I don't want any topics on my talk page. So, I'm requesting my talk page to be deleted. The reason is because I want to be completely unrecognized and that includes my name not being mentioined. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Anonymy365 (talk • contribs) 15:08, June 3, 2024 (UTC)
- Keep Sorry, we almost never delete user talk pages. Wikipedia is a collaborative effort, and there must be a place where others can contact you. You can blank comments from it that you do not wish to be seen, though they will still be visible in the page history to the curious. You can also add notices to your talk page that discourage others from adding unnecessary comments. Or you can make a new account and no longer be associated with your current identity (see Wikipedia:Clean start). Or you can undergo courtesy vanishing, where your username will be changed to a generic one and your account will retire from editing. Good luck on whatever you choose. Air on White (talk) 19:49, 3 June 2024 (UTC)
- Keep as above. Editor has a history of problematic edits including a brief block for disruptive editing, and the page history has a long list of admonishments and apparently unheeded advice, all of which was blanked by the user at some point or other. They've made further problematic edits today, so it appears that rather than wanting to disappear, they simply don't want to be held accountable for their activity. This, of course, is not compatible with how Wikipedia works. --Finngall talk 22:19, 3 June 2024 (UTC)
- Keep - There are two possible explanations for this request, neither of them a valid reason. First, the user wants to vanish, but deleting the talk page is not how any of the approved forms of vanishing are done. Second, the user wants to be a user without a talk page. That seems the more likely explanation, but we do not know. Wikipedia does not and should not allow a user to have no talk page, because it is necessary for other users to be able to communicate with them. Either is a plausible explanation of what is being requested, but either request should be denied. Robert McClenon (talk) 17:58, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
Draft:DAC Studios[edit]
Many external links, unreliable sources. The image is fair-use but not tagged as so. This is my first MfD, so it's probably not accurate and the
