User:Cryptic/g2

The 100 most recent deletions with "G2" appearing in the reason.
 * User:Akshay Kumar (actor):More properly a G3 hoax, which it was also later deleted as.
 * Arif Islam:An A3 attempt to communicate, A7 unremarkable individual, or G11 blatant self-promotion, take your pick; but not an editing test.
 * Draft:Garden snails habitat:Should be speediable - it would be an A1 in articlespace - but not a test page despite having "LOL ~" stuck onto the end of this hopeless attempt at an actual article.
 * Draft:Regina Monteavaro:Again, it should be speediable; it would be a hopeless A7 in articlespace, but wasn't a test edit.
 * Draft:Ryan Stewart:As above. An external link and an unremarkable claim about an apparently unremarkable individual; but misclicking the ~ button in the middle of it doesn't turn the entire page into a test.
 * Draft:Joseph Thomas Klein:Spam, not a test. At worst, it's another argument to extend A3 to at least the draft and user namespaces, if not all of them.
 * Template:Infobox 飲料:More of an error than a test. This was an infobox for a specific company, Harney & Sons, that was intended for jawiki.
 * Draft:Hunter TJ Johnston:Another hopeless A7, with no indication that it was "created to test editing or other Wikipedia functions".
 * Draft:Givens Price:This had the article wizard article skeleton, with nothing added to it. The closest thing so far to a test.  If it were in userspace, it'd be a G6 under the inexplicably-misplaced "Deleting userspace drafts containing only the default Article Wizard text if the user who created the page has been inactive for at least one year" subcriterion; if it were in articlespace it would be an A3.  Tagging it db-test was no more helpful or accurate than just a delete with no rationale.
 * User:Moviesremmended:A copy of 123 (film). Plausibly a test, but at least as likely a userspace fork.  By no means a U5 (which it was also deleted as).
 * User talk:217.64.42.213:A copyvio warning by User:Diannaa, which the ip in question blanked and stuck a db-test on. Horrifically, it was honored.  I might have deleted it as a U1 as a mercy, but there was zero testing involved here.
 * Template:Please line (sandbox heading):Content was "*↵", with ↵'s standing in for linebreaks. The first unambiguous test, but also speedyable as a G1.
 * Template:Country data indis:Plausibly a test, but more likely its author was just very confused. Would have been better to delete with the old default text "Content was: 'INDIAN.'" which is all that was there.
 * Draft:Yochi Briskman:A mercifully-, but IMO improperly-, draftified mainspace article that I'd have deleted as A3 and A7.
 * Draft:Vivek Kovilakathu:An external link to a pdf. Calling it an A3 despite its namespace would have been much less of a stretch than G2.
 * Draft:Portal:Seychelles/box-footer:A genuine test which couldn't have been a G1.
 * Draft:Peter Don Cuth:Content was "Peter". I'd never dream of deleting this as G2 in mainspace; it's got A3 written all over it.
 * Draft:Raccoons:Content was " Raccoons say "bork bork." " G1 unambiguously appropriate; G2 only ambiguously so.
 * Draft:Hannah Baird:"Bngxc". As above.
 * Draft:Jaiteg Singh Anant:Another genuine attempt at creating an article that would be instantly deleted as an A7 in articlespace. Not a test except in the sense of "What happens if I put an unreferenced oneliner about a guy with a job on Wikipedia?"
 * Draft:Govy:An unreferenced two-sentence draft about Govy that I'd have G10'd.
 * Draft:Emily Skillings:Six-word "[Firstname] [Lastname] is a [nationality] [occupation]" form article mercifully moved out of the main namespace. I A7 these once they're an hour old; I've never once seen one get improved post-draftification/userfication.  (No doubt people will now jump all over me with counterexamples.)
 * Draft:HUMAN RIGHTS DEPT, INDIA:Exact same story as Draft:Givens Price above.
 * Draft:Edward Baloyi was born in 27 January 1991 at Baragwanath Hospital in Johannesburg. He attended school at Giyani Comprehensive PriMary and Rising High where he completed his matric on 2009.:Page content was identical to the title. This isn't a test, and wouldn't be even if the page content was empty; it was an error, and not really a difficult one to make - the author put his intended content into the wrong field, just like you sometimes see with articles tagged A3, zero content, and a whole article in the edit summary.
 * BSM City Calambalpou: "SHinmsnkfnsdfn SM SMSMALSmal". Patent nonsense.
 * Template:Content infobox Zakir Musa: An attempt to create an infobox for Zakir Rashid Bhat in the wrong namespace instead of in the article. Genuine but unsuccessful attempts at editing aren't tests.
 * Template:ContentInfobox Zakir Musa: As above.
 * Template:Infobox Zakir Musa: As above.
 * Draft:Md mehdi: An A7, and arguably A1. Not a test, but another genuine attempt at making an article about a hopeless subject.
 * Draft:Sai Charan Nowpada: An A7, unless your threshold for "credible" is much lower than typical.
 * Draft:Sonic the hedgehog jr: An unsourced, very short article about a cancelled video game. Wouldn't have been a speedy even if it was in article space, unless your threshold for A1 is much higher than typical.
 * Draft:Sai charan nowapda: Same as Draft:Sai Charan Nowpada above, but without even the flimsy claim of significance that the other draft had. Still not an editing test.
 * Template:Supernatural or not understood: A misplaced  tag for a non-existent infobox template.
 * Draft:Claire Vredenburg: A hopeless A7. Unambiguously not a test.
 * Draft:Varon Bonicos: An A7, consisting only of an infobox. Unambiguously not a test.
 * Draft:Godfred Yaw Prebbie Mensah: Consisted solely of a quote by an unremarkable person. An identical article at that person's name in mainspace was deleted as an A7.  Not unambiguously a test.
 * Draft:Hopf algebra of a graph: A reference. Currently at DRV.  Unambiguously not a test, except in the sense of "Which admin gets their name dragged through the mud for a week for daring to delete one of Taku's contextless substubs?"
 * Draft:Harry potter: " == bivfcxi8fc ghj ==↵↵↵is the best↵↵ubc8on ". Unambiguously patent nonsense.  Likely a test, too, but not unambiguously so.
 * Md Akhtaruzzaman: Consisted of {{subst:Biography}} when it was deleted this time. I'd have deleted as A3, with a pointer to the subject's afd if I'd happened to notice it existed.
 * Draft:Sonia trabelsi: An A7, unambiguously not a test.
 * Talk:Govt. Vocational Training Institute for Girls: Consisted of "salam". G2 probably valid, but the G8 as an orphaned talk page (which it was also deleted as) would have been enough.
 * Mariusz nakoniczewski: This was clearly an editing test; it was the result of mashing the ref, galley, and table buttons (and inserting the editor's name at the prompts - clearly a real name, but nothing to do with the article name). Was also tagged (but not deleted) as an A1, which it also qualified for.
 * Kot Samaba: A fragment of infobox parameters. Could have been deleted under a number of speedy criteria (it was tagged db-nonsense); G2 wasn't an unreasonable choice.
 * Colts-Titans rivalry: Also a fragment of infobox parameters, but unlike Kot Samaba, the context was clear even without the article name. Still would've been an A3.
 * User:Drmies/boxe: Deleted by Drmies, so whether it was an editing test isn't in dispute. (I hope.)  Would've also been a valid G7 or U1, of course.
 * Template:7Eleven99Swell/WikiGnome: Was "this video contains meme", and tagged db-g3. Not unambiguously testing (or vandalism), though unambiguously useless and misplaced.
 * Template:Adminstats/TheGeneralUser: A denied attempt to get Cyberbot I to gather adminstats for a non-admin. Was tagged U1, and fits the spirit (if not the letter) of that criterion.  Would've been a valid G7 too.  Unclear why the deleting admin spontaneously labelled it a test.
 * Best soap houses: A list of addresses from four British soap opera series. This was clearly opinion-based and little else; not at all clearly a test.  Would have easily fit into the old wording of A1, "very short article with little or no context", but not the almost uselessly-strict new wording "not enough context to figure out the subject of the article".  So hooray, admins are still deleting them anyway, but now they're lying about why; that's so much better.
 * Draft:Brookburn community\primary school: A one-sentence draft about, as you'd expect, Brookburn Primary School. Wouldn't be deleteable in mainspace, because we're stupid about schools for historical reasons.  Unambiguously not a test.
 * Swedt: Content was " hi i am [personal name omitted]ℳ ". (The name had nothing to do with the article name.)  Best fit was an A3 attempt to communicate.  A7 also more defensible than G2.
 * Template:Airline-dest-list: Content was "Airline-dest-list". Not at all clear what this was, or even that it was wholly useless; it was created by an editor who's made lots of contribs to airline-related articles, and who was still active at the time of tagging.  Better would have been to ask him wtf it was intended to be (the only mention of it on his talk page is the twinkle speedy notification) instead of just tagging G2 right away.
