This deletion is a bit quick off the mark and fails to take any notice of context, particularly my trying to add birth and death entries to Years in Ireland. I am adding content to all the Years in Ireland articles as I find it and will be adding more to this, as I will to other such articles. It also allows others to add content in the collaborative way that is supposed to be Wiki - deletion this speedy allows no opportunity for this. Please have a modicum of patience - this speedy deletion approach is a very bad policy when applied in this way. NB this is not the same as 1612 itself.

In that case, how about you userfy the page(s) for now (move them into your userspace). עוד מישהו Od Mishehu 15:21, 27 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I concur. I have already voiced my feelings on the matter. _{WEBURIEDOURSECRETSINTHEGARDEN}^{we need to talk.} 15:38, 27 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I declined the speedy delete request because the reason given doesn't match any of the criteria in Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion. If there's a good chance that this article can be expanded and given enough content to qualify at least as a stub, then there shouldn't be a rush to delete it. If there are still objections to the article, then the processes WP:PROD or WP:AFD apply. Asking for speedy deletion has a chilling effect on editors who are trying to create new articles. --Elkman ^(Elkspeak) 16:16, 27 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
