Draft:Ranjit Singh Gill


The page is mostly (beyond the intro) a copy of Rabindranath Tagore and related pages. Abandoned UP#COPY Legacypac (talk) 09:22, 2 February 2018 (UTC)
 * The intent was probably to create a new page using Tagore as a template and content was added, so WP:UP does not really apply. Legacy, you moved it to draftspace and submitted to AfC 5 minutes before nominating it for deletion (without removing the AfC tag). The correct action would have been to blank and tag per WP:STALEDRAFT #2 - an action which would have wasted considerably less community time. My vote is to correct the mess you made: move back to userspace and blank per WP:STALEDRAFT #2. VQuakr (talk) 02:33, 6 February 2018 (UTC)
 * I concur they were using the other article as a template, but quit after the into. It looked like a well developed article until I realized it was an UPCOPY hence the MfD. I disagree with willy nilly blanking lots of pages that should be deleted. The suggestion to move back to userspace is borderline disruptive as it does nothing toward the goal of eliminating problematic userspace pages. We're here now, the creator is mot coming back, there is no where to redirect it that makes sense for the title, so delete. Legacypac (talk) 04:27, 6 February 2018 (UTC)
 * It is not "willy nilly", it is per the referenced guideline. VQuakr (talk) 07:04, 6 February 2018 (UTC)


 * Delete - Blanking stuff as an alternative to deletion is a terrible idea. Some things need deleting.  This needs to be rewritten about either Gill or Tagore after it is killed with fire.  Robert McClenon (talk) 01:55, 9 February 2018 (UTC)
