I'm not sure what you are trying to do by nominating "list of . . . " articles for deletion. I see what you are using as a rationale but not how it applies. Lists are perfectly valid when they assist with article organization and navigation. NtheP (talk) 19:35, 9 December 2010 (UTC)

If you are going to list them for deletion then please read Wikipedia:Articles for deletion#How to list pages for deletion on how to do so because you're not going about the process correctly in creating the discussion pages on your nominations. NtheP (talk) 19:51, 9 December 2010 (UTC)

I followed the AFD steps including adding a tag and entering reasons as best I could Opentag (talk) 20:00, 9 December 2010 (UTC)

Perhaps you got step I correct, but look at step II - that's where it appears to be wrong. NtheP (talk) 20:04, 9 December 2010 (UTC)

If you nominate pages by WP:Linkfarm, maybe you should also read these policies. Maybe an advice: write first some articles (or correct/expand some), discussing on afd pages, before you will nominating any other article. mabdul 21:54, 9 December 2010 (UTC)
