Draft:Chongqing No.68 Middle School


Original draft of a page that was deleted today at Articles for deletion/Chongqing No.68 Middle School Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 06:32, 21 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Speedy Delete — This page should have become a redirect to the mainspace version when that article was created. Had it been, it would now qualify under WP:CSD.  — jmcgnh (talk) (contribs) 06:45, 21 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete Indeed, sound reasoning from jmcgnh: Strictly this page shouldn't be anything other than a targetless redirect. —SerialNumber54129  paranoia / cheap sh*t room 06:59, 21 May 2018 (UTC)


 * So someone change it to a redirect to a non existent page and it can be deleted per G8 without a fuss or even a CSD tag if an admin is watching it. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 07:06, 21 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Doing that strikes me as "gaming the system". Redirecting to a non-existent page can't really be accepted generally as the step before CSD-G8. It's only in the special circumstances where a mainspace article was created and deleted via AfD, and where the draft is essential identical to the deleted article, that we can argue logically the move from draft to mainspace took place (copypaste move? but only an admin can verify that now) and that G8 should now be considered to apply. Recommending speedy delete at MfD is intended to encourage an admin who likes this reasoning to go ahead and delete it and not drag out the process needlessly.  — jmcgnh (talk) (contribs) 07:49, 21 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Another way of looking at this might be as a G4 deletion where we discount the intention of G4 to apply to drafts created after the deletion discussion concludes. We can use this reasoning at MfD without much concern over abuse, but I'm uncertain if we could get broad consensus on modifying G4 itself to include these cases.  — jmcgnh (talk) (contribs) 08:02, 21 May 2018 (UTC)
 * I tagged it as G8 but can kudpung ask your admin corps friends to action on it or since you are sort of uninvolved do it ? Quek157 (talk) 08:51, 21 May 2018 (UTC)
