The result of the discussion was keep. There Tony1 only says, that he has nothing against the deletion of the page, but not that he doesn't want it. Therefore the move of the page in Wikipedia namespace should be discussed with him first. Armbrust The Homunculus 10:16, 4 September 2013 (UTC)

I have no problem if people want to keep it—either here or moved elsewhere. I just noticed it a little while ago and thought it was just housecleaning. Tony  (talk)  20:56, 4 September 2013 (UTC)

User:Tony1/Monthly updates of styleguide and policy changes


Not updated since 2008. A search on WP:Updates brings you here. The author agrees with deletion Noyster (talk) 02:02, 9 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep. Multi-authored resource page on Project history.  Wikipedia has a daunting array of styleguides and policy pages. They come under very little central coordination and are subject to change without wide notice. This makes it hard for users to keep track of changes to rules and policies they need to be aware of, and to attain a sense of how the project is evolving.  This was true then and is true today.  It is particularly true for styleguides.  If inaccurate it could be blanked.  What it needs instead is a header asking visitors to "please update".  Or is there a better page to redirect to?  If Tony1 doesn't want it, move to ProjectSpace.  --SmokeyJoe (talk) 02:18, 9 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep and move to ProjectSpace if Tony1 does not want it. I agree with 's comments. The page states: "Wikipedia has a daunting array of styleguides and policy pages. They come under very little central coordination and are subject to change without wide notice. This makes it hard for users to keep track of changes to rules and policies they need to be aware of, and to attain a sense of how the project is evolving. This page displays the important changes in a central location, month by month; it enables all Wikipedians to keep abreast of what is happening, quickly and conveniently. Contributors to styleguide and policy pages are asked to notify us of changes for each upcoming monthly summary by posting a brief note of substantive changes (with a diff) on the talk page. Summary updates are posted here and at the talk pages of MOS, (main page), FAC and FAR shortly after the start of each calendar month. Copy-editing and relatively trivial changes are generally not included in these summaries." The page contains a selected history of updates between January–July 2008 to style guides such as Manual of Style.

 * Perhaps the page could be moved to a subpage of Update, which is primarily maintained by ? A sample page at Update is Update/1/Enforcement policy changes, December 2008 to June 2009. Cunard (talk) 01:46, 16 August 2013 (UTC)


 * Keep and move to ProjectSpace - (per Cunard) particularly to Update/Monthly updates of styleguide and policy changes. -- Jreferee (talk) 02:49, 3 September 2013 (UTC)
 * It's really up to Tony1, I think, it's in his userspace. Tony, if you're there, I'd be happy to host the material in a subdirectory of WP:Update if you like. - Dank (push to talk) 03:01, 3 September 2013 (UTC)
