 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review).  No further edits should be made to this page.  

The result of the debate was DELETE. I'm not of the opinion that this thin debate needs relisting since the nomination is entirely compelling and we don't have an in-place procedure that advocates locked forks of articles. -Splash talk 22:15, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

Early life of Joseph Smith, Jr./Stable
Rationale for this page is as an experiment under the proposal for Stable versions, but no timescale for same has been outlined (much less an experimental hypothesis) and there's been no activity on the "reviewing" for a week. Indeed, said discussion would more usefully have been conducted on the talk page of the "main" article, which is by no means "unstable", so could have been done in place. There seems to be the secondary goal here of greating a "parallel non-wiki wiki" in the existing namespace, which seems to be highly problematic without explicit consensus. So in essence this leaves us with an unnecessary fork, that's needlessly protected, and doesn't comply with the naming conventions, and is cluttering up live category space with the ill-named duplicate.
