can someone tell me if we are allowed to delete previously created pages that are no longer up-to date? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wend.anaya (talkcontribs) 20:27, 21 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Standardization

[edit]

It appears that policy and guideline standards are nowhere near as clear-cut as I'd hoped. Much is needed and this tree, annotated with my first recommendations, only hints at the difficulty. The tree, of course, is itself not correctly sorted:

Wikipedia policies and guidelines (rename "Wikipedia pages about policies and guidelines")

Wikipedia proposals (flag many as historical)
Wikipedia proposals in brainstorming stage (delete, empty)
Wikipedia proposals in experimental stage (delete, empty)
Wikipedia rejected proposals (way overpopulated; add subcats roughly matching P&G breakdowns)
Wikipedia guidelines (delete proposals)
Wikipedia behavioral guidelines (delete proposals and add from COI)
Conflict of interest (depopulate and delete)
Wikipedia content guidelines (separate out style guidelines and make category clearer)
Wikipedia editing guidelines (fix some sortkeys)
Wikipedia naming conventions (separate out style guidelines)
Wikipedia notability guidelines (delete proposals and make sure category is full)
Wikipedia style guidelines (separate out naming conventions; create new category for MOS)
General style guidelines (combine into style guidelines, and define what's MOS and not)
Wikipedia official policy (exclude summaries; add subcats; put EVERY policy here and in 1 subcat)
Wikipedia conduct policy (add sortkeys)
Wikipedia content policy (add sortkeys)
Wikipedia deletion policy (add sortkeys)

At a loss of where to start and even where to post this for proper community attention, I will merely make this an action note for now. I may return some time later. JJB 19:04, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
