Talk:Group of Five conferences

AfD Decision: 19 January 2020
From: Articles_for_deletion/Group_of_Five_conferences


 * Procedural Close - This is a redirect that has been tagged for AFD. The proper forum is Redirects for Discussion. Either Twinkle has failed to recognize a redirect, or a new editor has made the good-faith errors both of not using Twinkle and of nominating this in the wrong forum. Take this to RFD.

N00b Mistake
As a new user, I did not know or realize the difference between AfD and RfD. No notification was received in regards to the Procedural Close after tagging the redirect for article deletion. Several more days (including additional conflict) have past since the nomination, procedural close.

The same conflict and confusion which was caused by a Draft:Group of Five conferences being in progress, and creation of the redirect by another user. Notification of the Procedural Close and subsequent steps to be taken would have been appreciated. Don't bite new users. Be helpful. Explain things.

Now trying to clean-up the mess I've made of things.

Page History: Redirect Replacement with Article Content
On 25 January 2020, the contents of Draft:Group_of_Five_conferences was dropped wholesale into the the current page. Previously, the page contained a redirect link to Mid-major. That redirect link was created between a second submit for review of "Group of Five conferences" (draft), and the second reviewer declining the draft, likely due to the conflict caused by the creation of the redirect link.

Yes, it's confusing. Please re-read the above statement, see the listed history of events below...


 * Draft
 * Decline (lack of notability)
 * Revise and Resubmit Draft
 * Redirect created
 * Decline (talk about "splitting" the article at the redirected talk page)
 * Confusion and Conflict (DRN, 3O, Teahouse, AfD)
 * Replacement of Redirect with formal article content (WP:BB from WP:RFD)

A See Also section was added to include the Mid-major reference/citation (contains valid information, that article needing to be cleaned-up due to weasel-words and/or tone-style issues). — Preceding unsigned comment added by PhanChavez (talk • contribs) 03:33, 26 January 2020 (UTC)
