Template talk:Gamebox contents
Deletion
[edit]I'd like to add Wikipedia:WikiProject Computer and video games/Deletion as a bullet point to the gamebox. It's certainly more active and pertinent to editors than the inactive Requests and Noticeboard, and constantly updated. I think it's worth putting in front. --SevereTireDamage 05:23, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
- CVG deletions are still pretty inactive. Would it be worth mentioning the 2-3 most recent deletions in the infobox itself, to encourage people to actually take a look at them? RandyWang (raves/review me!) 01:18, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
- Given the turnover rate of AfDs, I'm not sure it's worth it so single out specific ones in the Gamebox. Most articles mentioned need a lot of time to get noticed (the recent stubs I removed from Expand had been up there for months and months, and stayed relatively untouched), and most AfDs are gone within 5 days. --SevereTireDamage 11:02, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
- Hi there, I just noticed on Special:Wantedpages that inclusion on this template's "Requests" line bumps the count up about 9000 or so. I removed it for now. I recommend creating one page of requests that is linked from the template, thus not hammering the special page. --DevastatorIIC 13:19, 3 September 2006 (UTC)
