Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion

Skip to: Table of contents / current discussions / old business (bottom). Purge this page

WP:MFDWP:MFD

Please do not nominate your user page (or subpages of it) for deletion here. Instead, add {{db-userreq}} at the top of any such page you no longer wish to keep; an administrator will then delete the page for you. See Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion § G7 for more information.

Miscellany for deletion (MfD) is a place where Wikipedians decide what should be done with problematic pages in the namespaces which aren't covered by other specialized deletion discussion areas. Items sent here are usually discussed for seven days; then they are either deleted by an administrator or kept, based on community consensus as evident from the discussion, consistent with policy, and with careful judgment of the rough consensus if required.

Filtered versions of the page are available at

Information on the process

What may be nominated for deletion here:

Pages not covered by other XFD venues, including pages in these namespaces: Draft:, Help:, Portal:, MediaWiki:, Wikipedia: (including WikiProjects), User:, TimedText:, MOS:,^[a] Event: and the various Talk: namespaces
Userboxes, regardless of the namespace
File description pages when the file itself is hosted on Commons
Any other page, that is not in article space, where there is dispute as to the correct XFD venue.

Requests to undelete pages deleted after discussion here, and debate whether discussions here have been properly closed, both take place at Wikipedia:Deletion review, in accordance with Wikipedia's undeletion policy.

Notes

^ The vast majority of pages in the MOS: namespace are redirects, which should be discussed at RfD. MfD is only applicable for the handful of its non-redirect pages.

Before nominating a page for deletion

Before nominating a page for deletion, please consider these guidelines:

Deleting pages in your own userspace	If you want to have your own userpage or a draft you created deleted, there is no need to list it here; simply tag it with {{db-userreq}} or {{db-u1}} if it is a userpage, or {{db-author}} or {{db-g7}} if it is a draft. If you wish to clear your user talk page or sandbox, just blank it.
Duplications in draftspace?	Duplications in draftspace are usually satisfactorily fixed by redirection. If the material is in mainspace, redirect the draft to the article, or a section of the article. If multiple draft pages on the same topic have been created, tag them for merging. See WP:SRE.
Deleting pages in other people's userspace	Consider explaining your concerns on the user's talk page with a personal note or by adding `{{subst:Uw-userpage}} ~~~~` to their talk page. This step assumes good faith and civility; often the user is simply unaware of the guidelines, and the page can either be fixed or speedily deleted using {{db-userreq}}. Take care not to bite newcomers – sometimes using the {{subst:welcome}} or {{subst:welcomeg}} template and a pointer to WP:UP would be best first. Problematic userspace material is often addressed by the User pages guidelines including in some cases removal by any user or tagging to clarify the content or to prevent external search engine indexing. (Examples include copies of old, deleted, or disputed material, problematic drafts, promotional material, offensive material, inappropriate links, 'spoofing' of the MediaWiki interface, disruptive HTML, invitations or advocacy of disruption, certain kinds of images and image galleries, etc) If your concern relates to these areas consider these approaches as well, or instead of, deletion. User pages about Wikipedia-related matters by established users usually do not qualify for deletion. Articles that were recently deleted at AfD and then moved to userspace are generally not deleted unless they have lingered in userspace for an extended period of time without improvement to address the concerns that resulted in their deletion at AfD, or their content otherwise violates a global content policy such as our policies on Biographies of living persons that applies to any namespace.
Policies, guidelines and process pages	Established pages and their sub-pages should not be nominated, as such nominations will probably be considered disruptive, and the ensuing discussions closed early. This is not a forum for modifying or revoking policy. Instead consider tagging the policy as {{historical}} or redirecting it somewhere. Proposals still under discussion generally should not be nominated. If you oppose a proposal, discuss it on the policy page's discussion page. Consider being bold and improving the proposal. Modify the proposal so that it gains consensus. Also note that even if a policy fails to gain consensus, it is often useful to retain it as a historical record, for the benefit of future editors.
WikiProjects and their subpages	It is generally preferable that inactive WikiProjects not be deleted, but instead be marked as {{WikiProject status\|inactive}}, redirected to a relevant WikiProject, or changed to a task force of a parent WikiProject, unless the WikiProject was incompletely created or is entirely undesirable. WikiProjects that were never very active and which do not have substantial historical discussions (meaning multiple discussions over an extended period of time) on the project talk page should not be tagged as {{historical}}; reserve this tag for historically active projects that have, over time, been replaced by other processes or that contain substantial discussion (as defined above) of the organization of a significant area of Wikipedia. Before deletion of an inactive project with a founder or other formerly active members who are active elsewhere on Wikipedia, consider userfication. Notify the main WikiProject talk page when nominating any WikiProject subpage, in addition to standard notification of the page creator.
Alternatives to deletion	Normal editing that doesn't require the use of any administrator tools, such as merging the page into another page or renaming it, can often resolve problems. Pages in the wrong namespace (e.g. an article in Wikipedia namespace), can simply be moved and then tag the redirect for speedy deletion using {{db-g6\|rationale= it's a redirect left after a cross-namespace move}}. Notify the author of the original article of the cross-namespace move.
Alternatives to MfD	Speedy deletion If the page clearly satisfies a "general" or "user" speedy deletion criterion, tag it with the appropriate template. Be sure to read the entire criterion, as some do not apply in the user space.

How to list pages for deletion

Shortcut

WP:MFDHOWTOWP:MFDHOWTO

Please check the aforementioned list of deletion discussion areas to check that you are in the right area. Then follow these instructions:

Instructions on listing pages for deletion:

To list a page for deletion, follow this three-step process: (replace PageName with the name of the page, including its namespace, to be deleted)

Note: Users must be logged in to complete step II. An unregistered user who wishes to nominate a page for deletion should complete step I and post their reasoning on Wikipedia talk:Miscellany for deletion with a notification to a registered user to complete the process.

I.

Edit PageName:

Enter the following text at the top of the page you are listing for deletion:

{{mfd|1={{subst:FULLPAGENAME}}}}
for a second or subsequent nomination use {{mfdx|2nd}}

or

{{mfd|GroupName}}
if nominating several similar related pages in an umbrella nomination. Choose a suitable name as GroupName and use it on each page.

If the nomination is for a userbox or similarly transcluded page, use {{subst:mfd-inline}} so as to not mess up the formatting for the userbox.

Use {{subst:mfd-inline|GroupName}} for a group nomination of several related userboxes or similarly transcluded pages.

Please include in the edit summary the phrase
Added MfD nomination at [[Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/PageName]]
replace PageName with the name of the page that is up for deletion.
Please don't mark your edit summary as a minor edit.
Check the "Watch this page" box if you would like to follow the page in your watchlist. This may help you to notice if your MfD tag is removed by someone.
Save the page

II.

Create its MfD subpage.

The resulting MfD box at the top of the page should contain the link "this page's entry"

Click that link to open the page's deletion discussion page.
Insert this text:

{{subst:mfd2| pg={{subst:#titleparts:{{subst:PAGENAME}}||2}}| text=Reason why the page should be deleted}} ~~~~
replacing Reason... with your reasons why the page should be deleted and sign the page. Do not substitute the pagename, as this will occur automatically.

Consider checking "Watch this page" to follow the progress of the debate.
Please use an edit summary such as Creating deletion discussion page for [[PageName]]
replacing PageName with the name of the page you are proposing for deletion.
If appropriate, inform members of the most relevant WikiProjects through one or more "deletion sorting lists". Then add a {{subst:delsort|<topic>|<signature>}} template to the nomination, to insert a note that this has been done.
Save the page.

III.

Add a line to MfD.

Follow this edit link and at the top of the list add a line:

{{subst:mfd3| pg=PageName}}
Put the page's name in place of "PageName".

Include the discussion page's name in your edit summary like
Added [[Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/PageName]]
replacing PageName with the name of the page you are proposing for deletion.
Save the page.
If nominating a page that has been nominated before, use the page's name in place of "PageName" and add

{{priorxfd|PageName}}
in the nominated page deletion discussion area to link to the previous discussions and then save the page using an edit summary such as
Added [[Template:priorxfd]] to link to prior discussions.

If nominating a page from someone else's userspace, notify them on their main talk page.
For other pages, while not required, it is generally considered civil to notify the good-faith creator and any main contributors of the miscellany that you are nominating. To find the main contributors, look in the page history or talk page of the page and/or use TDS' Article Contribution Counter or Wikipedia Page History Statistics. For your convenience, you may add
{{subst:mfd notice|PageName}} ~~~~
to their talk page in the "edit source" section, replacing PageName with the pagename. Please use an edit summary such as
Notice of deletion discussion at [[Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/PageName]]
replacing PageName with the name of the nomination page you are proposing for deletion.
If the user has not edited in a while, consider sending the user an email to notify them about the MfD if the MfD concerns their user pages.
If you are nominating a WikiProject, please post a notice at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Council, in addition to the project's talk page and the talk pages of the founder and active members.

The Ahmed Foorculus tribe is a member of one of the largest tribes in the Murursade clan. Elder Mohamed Foorculus was born to a woman from the Bimaal tribe. It is said that when Ahmed Foorculus was born, his mother died when he was born. Elder Forculus carried his child in his arms. When his mother died, he brought him to his first wife, Forculus' first wife, to raise Ahmed (Daguro) as if she were his own child. His wife agreed to raise the young child (Daguro) as if she were his own child. Daguuro Tribe

Comment this is a very clear case of WP:!G6, and there are simply too many non-trivial edits by others for it to qualify as WP:G7. It is however now at the correct venue for deletion. For now I offer no other opinion on the nomination. 204.111.137.106 (talk) 15:49, 29 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Seems to be some kind of one-off joke page that ran its course. It seems the only reason for keeping this is that it's "harmless". But it bugged someone enough to nominate it for deletion, which is reason enough to get rid of it. It's certainly not helping anyone even the slightest amount either, which is what MfD is for - removing unnecessary things. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 17:28, 28 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Draft:Wicked (film collection)

This is a cut and paste with no attribution from this version. It was discussed at Talk:The Wicked Years#Merge Wicked (film franchise) into The Wicked Years that a two film series article is not appropriate per WP:FILMSERIES and content was merged accordingly to The Wicked Years. Therefore no benefit of this draft as article should NOT be expanded. --wooden superman 09:09, 27 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:Text of the GNU Free Documentation License

This is a bit of a weird MFD, but I don't think the text of the GNU Free Documentation License is compatible with the CC BY-SA (unlike the text of the CC BY-SA which is itself licensed under the CC BY). Thus I don't think we can host a copy of the GFDL on wiki (although we can link to it off wiki for people to read). At the top of the page, it states "Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this license document, but changing it is not allowed," which implies NonDerivative (and thus not compatible with CC BY-SA).

Since there are a large number of links to this page (over 50,000), I would suggest we blank this page and direct users to the actual text hosted on gnu.org, or redirect to Wikipedia:GFDL. Aasim (話す（はなす）) 16:19, 25 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Overthinking things. Our content is GFDL-licenced so we must distribute a copy of the GFDL with it. No real chance of people being confused into thinking the text of the GFDL is CC-BY-SA. Stifle (talk) 16:29, 25 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Oh yeah that can also be an issue.

Could we maybe transwiki to Foundation wiki and then alter the copyright footer on Foundation wiki to say "unless otherwise noted, text is available..."

I wonder what else could be done to ensure a copy of the GFDL is available while making clear it is not available under the same license as the rest of the wiki. For example the MW software has bundled the GPL here. If there is a way to do something similar, maybe with a special page that has all the licenses, that would probably be better. Aasim (話す（はなす）) 16:53, 25 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
As I understand, the text was uploaded before the Wikipedia:Licensing update cutoff, so copyright-wise there's no need to redact or revdel. Neutral on whether we should have the page here in the first place. Tenshi! (Talk page) 16:57, 25 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. A Wikipedia licensing question is very important to consider properly and is NOT appropriately dealt with by a one week MfD. SmokeyJoe (talk) 22:41, 25 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Then what might be the appropriate venue to discuss copyright of the text of the GFDL? Copyright problems?

If the license of the GFDL is GFDL before 2009, we can relicense it under CC BY-SA. But if not, then we should either transwiki the page or try to get the copyright footer hidden on license pages. Aasim (話す（はなす）) 17:06, 26 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Has this been discussed - or even suggested - at WP:VPR? Are there any discussions or notices at Wikipedia talk:Copyrights or Wikipedia talk:Reusing Wikipedia content? Have WMF Legal been informed? --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 13:38, 26 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: For context, c:Commons:Deletion requests/File:GFDL (English).ogg was allowed as one of the only non-free files on Commons.

Keep per… the page itself. We need to distribute the license text to comply with the license – even excluding our dual-licensed articles, we have files like File:1kolache.jpg that are only available under the GFDL. If a strict reading of our licensing policy would force us to delete the license text, then we must simply ignore it. jlwoodwa (talk) 05:05, 31 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
