Seems rather in poor taste to have a virtual "hitlist" of categories user is planning on nominating for deletion, which includes ones that I've populated before, perhaps at the border of WP:POLEMIC. I've spoken to an admin who describes these actions as "passive aggressive." For days ago I asked Marcocapelle to remove this portion from the sandbox but I've gotten no reply yet.

 * Every user is entitled to a sandbox, and I am simply using it as a to-do list. Nothing wrong with that. It is certainly not meant as "passive aggressive" since I would not expect that other editors would ever watch the sandbox. By the way, please provide a link to the request to remove some portion from the sandbox, because I do not recall having seen it. Marcocapelle (talk) 11:06, 14 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Found the request, it is here: User talk:Marcocapelle/sandbox. I have never looked there, please use User talk:Marcocapelle from now on. Marcocapelle (talk) 11:20, 14 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Apologies I thought it would notify you of changes to userspace talk pages.--Prisencolin (talk) 20:06, 14 March 2021 (UTC)
 * You hopefully you see that publicly posturing that you will a delete pages that someone else works on is considered in bad taste. also its expected that other users will occasionally check your contributions, especially since I noticed you intend to delete categories I work on.--Prisencolin (talk) 20:10, 14 March 2021 (UTC)
 * I don't really see this as public. Technically it is public, of course, but who on earth would ever be interested in my sandbox content? If for any reason you take offense (while there is no reason to) then just stop watching my sandbox, that solves the problem immediately. Marcocapelle (talk) 21:35, 14 March 2021 (UTC)
 * If you're planning deletions that concern pages I work on, it's natural that I'll be paying attention to it. Nonetheless I still ask that you not work on it on any sort of wiki space. There are plenty of other ways of testing wikitext off of the website. I will withdraw this nomination if you agree to do this.--Prisencolin (talk) 09:05, 15 March 2021 (UTC)


 * Keep I completely fail to see how this is polemic or passive-agressive. * Pppery * it has begun... 15:16, 14 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep — I suppose some of this could be considered bad taste, but I fail to see how it makes the jump to being polemic. —  csc -1 00:19, 15 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep - this appears to be a to-do list. It does not say "these categories are stupid" or attack the creator in some way from what I can see, it lists what the user intends to do in terms of nominating them for discussion. ƒirefly  ( t · c ) 08:59, 15 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep, reasonable to-do list. Unlike Prisencolin above, I think it is preferable if users plan their Wikipedia activities on Wikipedia, not in some text file on their computer. I fail to see how planning category changes openly is worse than doing so in secret. No evidence of any commentary about editors or other WP:POLEMIC material has been presented. —Kusma (t·c) 10:23, 15 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep - This is a to do list of tasks to be done on Wikipedia and clearly within scope of what is allowed in user space. I see no evidence that this a "hitlist" as stated in the nomination. -- Whpq (talk) 11:54, 15 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep - Categories are not living persons (even if the articles in them are BLPs) and are not entitled to special consideration about hurt feelings. Robert McClenon (talk) 18:04, 15 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep making a list of appropriate actions a user intends to take is not an inappropriate use of a sandbox. Deleting pages isn't an "attack". Elli (talk &#124; contribs) 19:24, 15 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Can User talk:Marcocapelle/sandbox be deleted please (so the talk page with the sandbox, not the actual sandbox)? The sandbox talk page has been created by User:Prisencolin in my own user space and I seem not to have the rights to tag it with . Having a  second talk page is just very confusing to me. Also WP:TROUT to User:Prisencolin for creating a new and unnecessary page in someone else's userspace. Marcocapelle (talk) 04:44, 16 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Marcocapelle, just redirect it to your main talk page. That way, when someone wants to talk about it again (for whatever reason), they do so in the right place. —Kusma (t·c) 10:32, 16 March 2021 (UTC)
 * I wish I could. I just can't edit the page as a whole, I can only edit the discussions that have been added as a section. Marcocapelle (talk) 18:13, 16 March 2021 (UTC)
 * I've redirected the page per the above comment. * Pppery * it has begun... 02:06, 18 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Marcocapelle has removed the notice now. So should an admin close it? -Cupper52Discuss! 18:54, 16 March 2021 (UTC)
 * An admin should close it, because it's SNOWing, but that has nothing to do with the mfd tag having been removed. * Pppery * it has begun... 02:06, 18 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep - Like everyone else above I'm not seeing anything uncivil, polemic or even distasteful here. No reason to delete. Maybe helping Marcocapelle with his tasks would be more appreciated than this route? Just a thought... – Davey 2010 Talk 21:21, 19 March 2021 (UTC)
