Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Wikipedia:Alternative name


 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the miscellany 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 debate was Delete. Centrix appears to advocate deletion here; that makes a 3-1 consensus with a solid rationale that bad-faith "policy proposals that weren't meant to be policy proposals" need not be archived, at least in this case. 15:22, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

Alternative name
This page used to be in article space, and was nominated for deletion as being a POV fork of established guidelines. It has since been moved to Wikispace where it belongs, but it is still (alleged to be) a POV fork and the AFD nomination was simply aborted when the page moved. Hence, we should consider its deletion once more.  &gt; R a d i a n t &lt;  10:57, 9 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep and reject PoV fork of naming policy, as a campaign for certain Balkan names; but if we delete it, it will just turn up somewhere else. Septentrionalis 17:30, 9 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment: Since it was nonsensically put in article space and was created to push a POV, it is not a normal, good-faith policy proposal. I'm not sure how many rejected proposals we should keep around for eternity, this one especially, and proposals like this are not likely to be re-created. —Centrx→talk &bull; 17:36, 9 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete I tried to remove the POV of the original, but it now reads essentially that POV and a critique of it; this is a matter of some controvery among WP editors and I was somewhat disappointed that when I nominated it for deletion it got moved to a place where some would consider it as a directive. Time for it to go.... 22:24, 14 September 2006 (UTC)Carlossuarez46 22:24, 14 September 2006 (UTC)
