 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the miscellaneous page below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the page's talk page or in a deletion review).  No further edits should be made to this page.

The result of the discussion was: redirect to Dragon Ball: Raging Blast. Compromise between delete and keep as there is no consensus for either. In the unlikely event that this user comes back after a decade and wants their draft, it remains available to them, but anyone who locates it will be pointed to the mainspace article to improve that instead. I want to remind nominators that these things can be speedily redirected to a mainspace article or blanked with inactive userpage blanked rather than MfD'ing them. &spades;PMC&spades; (talk) 04:54, 26 May 2018 (UTC)

I tagged this for speedy deletion under U5 and G11. declined on the grounds that it seemed to be a plausible sandbox. Reads to me like your typical video game promotion. As such, I prefer deletion of the revisions to blanking. —Compassionate727 (T·C) 17:29, 17 May 2018 (UTC)


 * Keep - a reasonable userspace draft. It does not seem overtly promotional to me. — Godsy (TALK CONT ) 20:29, 17 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete - apparently a test of the article creation wizard; supposed topic duplicates the preexisting article Dragon Ball: Raging Blast. Author has no contribs other than this nine-year-old one-day draft. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 20:38, 17 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep - Fine use of a sandbox. If it's not CSDable, it's not so promotional that it needs to be deleted. If it were only article creation wizard text, we have a rationale for that. It's not. Being about something already covered in an article is likewise not a reason to delete a sandbox. &mdash; Rhododendrites  talk \\ 22:34, 17 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete G11 and U5. Bad decline by . Completely unsourced except for two promotional links, the product page and YouTube. At best TNT. A reasonable article on an upcoming commercial product cannot start from the product page and a YouTube video. —SmokeyJoe (talk) 23:07, 17 May 2018 (UTC)
 * It is a sandbox, doesn't have to be sourced as it sits. A sandbox by its very nature is unfinished. -DJSasso (talk) 23:08, 17 May 2018 (UTC)
 * That depends on how you define sandbox, which is admittedly the source of debate here at MfD. Some users, like Rhododendrites, believe that anything can be a sandbox. Others argue a sandbox is where you make test edits and so should contain things that resemble test edits (rather than things that resemble drafts). —Compassionate727 (T·C) 23:10, 17 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Which is exactly why it needs to come here as opposed to a speedy. -DJSasso (talk) 23:13, 17 May 2018 (UTC)
 * I agree with Djsasso, fwiw: this isn't a speedy case. It is, however, an untouched draft announcing an "upcoming" product which was actually released eight and a half years ago; forever in video game terms. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 00:03, 18 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Yeah I offer no comment on if it should be kept or deleted just that it not be speedy deleted. -DJSasso (talk) 02:18, 18 May 2018 (UTC)


 * Redirect to Dragon Ball: Raging Blast. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 00:14, 18 May 2018 (UTC)
 * I prefer deletion but this is also a sensible option. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 12:52, 18 May 2018 (UTC)
 * You have both a speedy delete and redirect !vote active in this discussion. — Godsy (TALK CONT ) 22:38, 20 May 2018 (UTC)
 * If not Speedy deleteable, redirect. —SmokeyJoe (talk) 22:45, 20 May 2018 (UTC)


 * Keep - No reason to delete. Not an abuse of sandboxes or user space.  Robert McClenon (talk) 19:20, 18 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete it is a bad decline. This is NOT a sandbox its a partially formed abandoned draft. Legacypac (talk) 13:17, 25 May 2018 (UTC)
 * A draft in userspace is known as a sandbox...And the speedy reason was U5 and G11. It was clearly not U5 because a draft is not being used as a webhost and I do not believe it was the company trying to promote the game so it clearly wasn't G11. -DJSasso (talk) 14:28, 25 May 2018 (UTC)
