Draft:Taylor Hickson


Abandoned draft, Created by who I assuming is the BLP in question, Thanks – Davey 2010 Talk 02:01, 8 November 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep, move back to mainspace, allow listing at AfD. Plausibly notable.  Well written.  I was able to find more sources discussing the subject.   User:Oshwah's 07:37, 22 April 2016‎ bold draftification and this MfD amounts to a backdoor deletion, and this sort of thing (backdoor deletion by bold draftification) has been repudiated.  --SmokeyJoe (talk) 22:52, 9 November 2016 (UTC)
 * - I only became aware of the draftication once I nominated this but I was hardly gonna close this - move it back and send it to AFD was I ? ... Anyway do you have sources ? ... I'd be happy to close and move this providing there's substantial stuff otherwise it can stay here - It's nonsensical to close this as Keep - Move it to articlespace and then send it to AFD ... – Davey 2010 Talk 01:29, 10 November 2016 (UTC)
 * Hi Davey. I hope you don't suspect me of having meant to imply you did anything wrong, because I didn't.  Even Oshwah did nothing "wrong", the issue of bold draftication was only clarified subsequently.
 * I think you are essentially asking for an AfD-level deletion discussion. If you want that, then at a minimum slap the  template on (I have done so with this edit).
 * AfD requires a higher standard than MfD, which is why I don't support AfD level discussions being listed at MfD. Draftspace and userspace allow much wider latitude than mainspace.  "Abandoned draft" is not an MfD deletion reason.  Drafts are not deleted for being abandoned, except for the fairly restrictive G13 route.  "BLP"?  I judge there to be no BLP issues.  It is a sourced BLP of a public person.  At MfD, I see no reason to support deletion, but at AfD, I can see myself agreeing with deletion.
 * I see a number sources, you can click on the template to see them too. At AfD, they would not bring me to !vote "keep", but I am fairly sure that others at AfD would.  I therefore think that if it is the AfD standard you want, you have to expose it to the AfD audience.
 * In draftspace, it can stay as is. "Abandoned" is not a deletion reason.  No BLP issue. "Suspected autobiography" is not a deletion reason.  If you disagree, I suggest you can blank it as an editorial action.  In fact, I think I support blanking, as a compromise considered dubious notability and a very mild perceivable aspect of promotion.  --SmokeyJoe (talk) 02:38, 10 November 2016 (UTC)
 * Hi SmokeyJoe, Ah right sorry I thought you were trying to say I was being sneaky inregards to bringing it here,
 * The next part I could rant for England but whatever I'll hold my tongue and close this. – Davey 2010 Talk 03:08, 10 November 2016 (UTC)
