Draft:Desire The Fire

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This page was pulled out of article space by a patroller. It is now elegible for G13 deletion, but I'm really not sure about notability here. Bringing here because until the last edit, a mainspace page. Legacypac (talk) 05:56, 1 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Is this the right forum? The band doesn't meet WP:NBAND as local/regional charts are not sufficient. They don't meet general notability requirements either: their only press coverage seems to be a local social media dispute in Vegas after they said they didn't like black people, which is despicable but also falls foul of WP:1EVENT. Regional press coverage isn't generally enough, anyway (outside of the largest local media markets). But equally there are separate procedures for disposing of drafts. --Colapeninsula (talk) 09:39, 1 September 2017 (UTC)

There are a few editors trying to argue that Drafts pulled from Mainspace should be dealt with differently than other Drafts and some other misguided editors that refuse to consider notability at MfD (which is what is needed here) so I broght it here for discussion. Thank-you for the insightful analysis which leads to Delete. Legacypac (talk) 17:25, 1 September 2017 (UTC)


 * Procedural Close. I agree that there might be some pretty good arguments in favor of changing how we handle draft articles at MFD, but the place to make such changes is at WT:MFD. Not only is this a non-article space page, the AFD template does not even properly link to a debate where the article being debated isn't in the mainspace. So until there's consensus for changing the process, this needs to be closed. (And if it's a G13 candidate anyway, then tag it as such and let the next admin do the necessary.)
