 * 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:  Delete. There doesn't appear to be any disagreement that these particular pages are long inactive and historically uninteresting, so I'm deleting these pages on that basis. However, I am not going to mass delete every page in a category based on a three-person discussion. You should either nominate the pages individually or in small batches (so that participants can review them on their particular merits), or get a bigger discussion going to generate consensus for mass deletion.

Wikipedia:Translation/Abdulhussain Abdulredha


These pages (which relate to a system deprecated since 2009) don't appear to contain any info that is likely to be of historical interest. These could be replaced by redirects (e.g. to Translation/*/In Progress), but I don't see any benefit in doing that. If this results in delete/redirect then the same should also be done to other pages below Category:Translation In Progress etc. The main purpose of this deletion is to reduce unnecessary clutter in Category:Inactive project pages (which I think is really intended for failed proposals etc) - e.g. see comment at Category talk:Inactive project pages.

 * Lacks explanation of why the extra work of MfD is needed when redirection is an option.
 * Justifying MfD work on the basis of a maintenance category being cluttered with maintenance is well on the way to a circular busywork absurdity. If Category:Inactive project pages is generating maintenance needs, better to delete the category.  However, I am sure there is an automated/bot method that can be conceived to sort uninteresting Category:Inactive project pages into subcategories.  Come back only when there is a bona fide reason for deletion.  --SmokeyJoe (talk) 03:14, 14 August 2016 (UTC)
 * Let me get this straight. We should redirect inactive pages to another inactive page, rather than help clear from a maintenance category pages that aren't going to be maintained? No. Delete. --BDD (talk) 15:20, 14 September 2016 (UTC)

 * BDD, no. I am saying that backlogs in unecessary maintenance categories should not be dumped on MfD.  If the only reason for listing is that they populate a maintenance catergory, then go find something worthwhile to do, bringing them to MfD is a net negative.
 * The comment at Category talk:Inactive project pages is completely unimpressive. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 01:16, 15 September 2016 (UTC)
