deprod

 * 1) Just a friendly reminder to use an edit summary which mentions the term "prod" when proposing deletion for an article.  Edit summary usage is always good, but it is especially important that edit summaries are used when proposing deletion.  The reason for this is that articles proposed for deletion that later have the prod tag removed should not be proposed for deletion again, but rather sent to Articles for deletion.  The only easy way to check if an article was previously proposed for deletion is to look at the edit history and the edit summaries people have left before.  Thanks!
 * 2) I have removed the prod tag from As Friends Rust, which you proposed for deletion.  I'm leaving this message here to notify you about it.  If you still think the article should be deleted, please don't add the prod template back to the article.  Instead, feel free to list it at Articles for deletion.  Thanks!

Redirects vs. articles
Hey, thanks for patrolling pages. I noticed you've tagged some redirects for deletion under the A1 criterion. That doesn't actually work because if it's a redirect you have to use one of the WP:CSD criteria specifically for redirects (or the general ones). My understanding is redirects are cheap and don't need much justification. Thanks again for your work! delldot  &nabla;.  05:39, 16 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Noted. I suppose my reasoning behind it had to do with the notability of the subjects of a redirect pages and how it related to the necessity for them. Will be more cautious in the future. Abovethestorm (talk) 02:16, 17 December 2015 (UTC)

 * 7&amp;6=thirteen, thank you for bringing that to my attention. I made the decision a few months back to step away from the entire situation regarding conversations regarding the peripheral articles that spring up around that set of entries. Abovethestorm (talk) 06:43, 8 April 2016 (UTC)
