I moved this to draftspace from the mainspace way back in June 2015. Since then, no work has been done on it whatsoever. There's not enough information here to figure out the intended subject. Google searches turn up nothing. If I hadn't moved it to draftspace in an attempt to save a possible work-in-progress it would have been speedy deleted as per A7, so it seems proper to delete it at this point. ~ RobTalk 05:24, 3 May 2016 (UTC)  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

 * Apology accepted. There has subsequently been an RfC somewhere demonstrating broad disapproval of moving pages from mainspace to draftspace, unless authorised by AfD, or unless by the author.  The page should have been allowed to be deleted per CSD#A7, or better, BLPPROD.  Delete unless sources are provided.  --SmokeyJoe (talk) 06:11, 14 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Do you happen to have a link handy to that RfC? I've never seen that one. ~ RobTalk 15:23, 14 May 2016 (UTC)
 * I was thinking of WT:Drafts. I may not be summarising that RfC well, it did not reveal a consensus, but I think draftifying as pseudo-deletion is a big problem, and that draftifying things that should be deleted is also a problem. Overall, I think draft space is not worth its keep. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 00:20, 15 May 2016 (UTC)
 * That RfC specifically targeted articles that were not speedy delete candidates. I support moving into draftspace in certain limited instances for much the same reason you support indefinitely keeping certain drafts; it reduces WP:BITE. ~ RobTalk 00:45, 15 May 2016 (UTC)
