The result of the discussion was delete. In fact I have followed JBW's suggestion and moved it back to the mainspace first, so that the history is all at The Tides of Time. What happened in Jan 2010 was the the artist's article was deleted, and this was tagged A9 and userfied to avoid deletion. JohnCD (talk) 21:45, 27 January 2013 (UTC)

User:DESiegel/drafts/The Tides of Time


This was an artcicle, which was userfied to prevent speedy deletion in January 2010. It was subsequently copy-pasted to mainspace, which was incorrect, as it should have been moved. The article has now been deleted. This page was created by a user who has not edited since March 2011. It falls under the provisions of WP:STALEDRAFT, and should be deleted for that reason. (Technically, there is also another reason for deletion. It should be moved to The Tides of Time and deleted there, to restore the editing history in case the article is ever restored: if the move to mainspace had been done correctly, it would already be in the deletion archive of The Tides of Time, and we should now put it there. I do not claim that is a major concern, however.) JamesBWatson (talk) 11:59, 19 January 2013 (UTC)
 * One further thought. If this draft were returned to mainspace, it would immediately qualify for speedy deletion under criterion A9 ("An article about a musical recording that has no corresponding article about its recording artist and does not indicate why its subject is important or significant") so there would be no justifiable use for the draft anyway.

 * Support nomination, but what exactly happened in Jan 2010. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 23:55, 19 January 2013 (UTC)
