Template:Editnotices/Page/List of Filipino architects


Also nominating Template:Editnotices/Page/List of Canadian architects.

Yes, they're in template space, but they're just template subpages, and this is really not what we normally take to TFD. Andy M. Wang and I have been working on improving the editnotice template so that it automatically nominates an editnotice page for G8 speedy when the related page doesn't exist; in virtually all cases, this is the result of someone deleting the page without deleting the editnotice. See Template talk:Editnotice for what we're doing. Andy discovered these two editnotices, both of which were created four years ago, apparently in anticipation of lists being created at these titles. He and I agree that they ought not get routine G8 deletions, since they've been around for this long, but I still don't think we need them; we can delete them, and then wait for articles to be created before recreating the editnotices. What do you think? Nyttend (talk) 02:26, 29 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Thanks. !voting Delete here. I'm currently doing a slow scrub through this space, and am expecting to find more here. We can probably just compile a list of candidates at the end and have another MfD or just make the editnotice notice go live and auto-G8 it. — Andy W.  ( talk  · ctb) 06:06, 29 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. I wonder if a separate discussion for these is actually necessary. As a parallel, when an ordinary page is deleted, its talkpage is automatically deleted also, without a separate XfD being needed. Is this analogous? Newyorkbrad (talk) 16:12, 29 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Yeah, talk pages would go per G8. These two cases (so far) are editnotices for pages that were never created in the first place (but were in anticipation), but I believe G8 still applies. — Andy W.  ( talk  · ctb) 17:03, 29 June 2016 (UTC)
 * I agree that these are probably speedyable, but in light of what Nyttend wrote in the nom, let's let this discussion go to full length, and then if no one disagrees there will be a precedent if more of these turn up. Newyorkbrad (talk) 17:09, 29 June 2016 (UTC)
 * The precedent bit was in my mind (and Andy's words at the talk page made me wonder if he were thinking the same); if we delete these two here, anyone objecting to the idea of G8-ing these things can be shown this MFD. Nyttend (talk) 03:18, 30 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Probably delete, but should be discussed at TfD, they are template related if not actual templates (they look like templates!), and there are special template issues requiring the expertise found at TfD. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 02:01, 30 June 2016 (UTC)
