Marking entries

I was just thinking - we should use the check mark to show that an article would pass GNG and an X to show that they wouldn't, just for ease of detecting which ones of these failed guidelines, especially if we have to go back and nominate any for deletion.

Updated instructions, look okay? -- samtar ^whisper 10:24, 24 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Looks great! I figure that this can be helpful if anyone wants to just speed through some and not go through the process of nominating just yet. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 10:25, 24 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Another question: should we use Template:CollapsedShell for the completed sections? It could make it easier for scrolling. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 10:49, 24 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Looks good to me :) -- samtar ^whisper 10:50, 24 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Discography pages

@Ymblanter: The discography pages will likely need a lot of scrutiny themselves. At least one of the random films I clicked on was created by our sockpuppet, but others appear to have been created by other users. My basic thought is that we should only have the most notable film soundtracks listed since I doubt that we need all 1000+, given how prolific this guy is. At best maybe a listing by decade, but that's pushing it dangerously close into indiscriminate data for my tastes. Basically, the merge for those pages will require almost as much work as the sock articles will, so that might be a good second project after this is all done.

They were listed for merging by someone since March, so that I thought we should not delete them (at least those which are referenced) now in any case, just let the merge discussion run its way.--Ymblanter (talk) 20:23, 29 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect icon

Should we use a different icon for the redirects? It's not quite a deletion but it's not really a keep either. Right now the sock is arguing that he's a separate account and that his article creation should count for him. Offhand my thought is "no way" but if by some chance he can prove that he isn't a sock, then the amount of deleted and redirected articles could be used to establish a case for him not to get unblocked. You guys' thoughts on this? Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 06:05, 29 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

It would not harm in any case.--Ymblanter (talk) 20:23, 29 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Possible unblock

Rajeshbieee is lobbying for an unblocking, so if anyone wants to weigh in they can do so on his talk page. Two editors I trust have vouched that he's not a sockpuppet or in other ways, so I've posted some requirements about his unblock if he's unblocked. Namely that he'd have to fix these articles before posting more and that above all else, he'd have to go through AfC and mentorship for at least a year or two before he can be trusted to create articles. I'm kind of leery about this since I don't really know how well he'd do if unblocked but this is a WP:LASTCHANCE type of deal, I suppose. It's just that it's very, very difficult to block editors based on article creation and I've seen editors with larger editing and civility problems left to their own devices because they created articles.

AfDs

Guys, watch your PRODs. I had a bunch of mine get de-prodded with the rationale that it should go through AfD rather than PROD, which I don't outright agree with given the lack of coverage and the other issues. I'm going to nominate a bunch of them and let them get sorted out there, and I'll list the ones that I had to nominate here. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 07:07, 7 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Three of mines were also deprodded. I sent all of them to AfD; one had sources added, and I withdrew it, two are still at AfD.--Ymblanter (talk) 08:08, 7 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I'm kind of frustrated that people are dePRODing them without providing sources, given the situation. While sure, there may be other sources found by others at AfD, this is a pretty unusual circumstance given the amount of articles we have to wade through. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 08:28, 7 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I agree, but I do not think we can do anything about it.--Ymblanter (talk) 08:48, 7 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
