User:Moonriddengirl/CSD templates

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Discussing alterations to DB templates. Attempting to keep this page out of category:candidates for speedy deletion. :) I'm limiting it to G & A sections and only discussing those I feel may need changing.

Not crazy about the misused comma there, but I see it may serve a purpose to prevent confusion. It's contained at the policy page. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 16:00, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

This differs substantially from current policy language, which states "Pages which exclusively promote some entity and which would need to be fundamentally rewritten to become encyclopedic", but I'm not sure that it needs to be rewritten. It seems to me to get the point across. What do you think? --Moonriddengirl (talk) 16:06, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

This is one of the more complicated cases (at least so far), since the guidelines have become very specific. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 16:13, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

This is likely to be a bit tricky to work out. The template refers to A1 & A3, but according to Wikipedia:CSD#Deletion templates it is only placed for A1. My proposed rewording keeps both senses anyway. I have not incorporated any reference to time, since there's no consensus to do so at talk:csd. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 16:35, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

I've decided to be bold with these. I've already implemented changes. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 16:42, 17 January 2008 (UTC)
