User:Rkr1991/Admin coaching/Lesson 3

  In this lesson, we will mainly be covering the speedy deletion criteria of Userpages, Files, and the General speedy deletion criteria.  '''Let's begin with the General Deletion Criteria. Please see Criteria for speedy deletion, and summarize each deletion criterion (in your own words) in one sentence. If there are any major exceptions to those rules, please use another sentence to describe that exception.'''

✅G1: -  Well, this is pretty self-explanatory. I figure it would be best if I try to give examples. It is just nonsense, but "excludes poor writing, partisan screeds, obscene remarks, implausible theories, vandalism and hoaxes, fictional material, coherent non-English material, and poorly translated material." An example can be a page filled with random characters, numbers or symbols, or dawdling. ✅G2: - This basically deals with test edits, made generally by new users or users unsure of their editing status. These belong in the sandbox. Examples can be varied. ✅G3: - The page is full of WP:Vandalism, deliberately made in bad faith. These include obscene remarks, deliberately and blatant wrong facts intended to misinform, etc. ✅G4: - If a page which was deleted following a deletion discussion, is recreated, then it is vulnerable to be speedily deleted, unless a substantial amount of content is added or changed. "This criterion also excludes content undeleted via deletion review, or which was deleted via proposed deletion or speedy deletion" ✅G5: - Pages recreated by WP:Banned users. Nothing more to say here. ✅G6: - Deletions for maintenance related issues, after reaching Consensus, such as "temporarily deleting a page to merge page histories, deleting dated maintenance categories, deleting unnecessary disambiguation pages, or performing uncontroversial page moves."(sorry, but I think I better stick to the cases given) ✅G7: - Sometimes, the author who created and who alone substantially edited a page may himself request its deletion. If done so in good faith, ie, with no intentions of harming the project, then this is a criteria for speedy deletion of the article. Also, "(For redirects created as a result of a pagemove, the mover must also have been the only substantive contributor to the pages prior to the move.) If the sole author blanks a page other than a userspace page or category page, this can be taken as a deletion request." ✅G8: - Pretty much straightforward, this one. 'Pages dependent on a non-existent or deleted page,such as talk pages with no corresponding subject page; subpages with no parent page; image pages without a corresponding image; redirects to invalid targets, such as nonexistent targets, redirect loops, and bad titles; and categories populated by deleted or retargeted templates. This excludes any page that is useful to the project, and in particular: deletion discussions that are not logged elsewhere, user talk pages, talk page archives, plausible redirects that can be changed to valid targets, and image pages or talk pages for images that exist on Wikimedia Commons." (Sorry again, but I think it is really not necessary to reword that.) ✅G9: - Office actions... er.. lets just say that the WP office has the right to do certain actions, and its best not to interfere with it. Violators will be speedily deleted. ✅G10: - Pages that do nothing but attack and disparage the subject. These pages should either be re-written in a neutral way, or if that is not possible, be speedily deleted. ✅G11: - "Pages that are exclusively promotional, and would need to be fundamentally rewritten to become encyclopaedic. Note that simply having a company or product as its subject does not qualify an article for this criterion. " Nothing much to say here either. ✅G12: -Wikipedia is a free for all project, and should not violate any copyright. All content must be sourced to free sources, with a GNU license or the author's explicit consent. If it is not possible to write such an article, it doesn't have a place here.

  '''Well Done! It doesn't seem like you'll have any difficulty with the general speedy deletion criteria. Next, let's try Files, the Userspace, and Redirects. Like noted above, please see Criteria for speedy deletion, and summarize each deletion criterion below (in your own words) in one sentence. If there are any major exceptions to those rules, please use another sentence to describe that exception. '''
