Reasons for deletion

  • Abandoned Articles for creation submissions
  • Abandoned entry/draft left incomplete having structural issues that make it unreadable.

Uh, maybe it would have been better to save the contents somewhere, so that they could be edited and corrected, either by the original editor, or by someone else. The original contents took quite a while to create. So now to have to recreate from scratch the entire contents would be a lot of work (not to mention the negative emotions entailed). I just now returned to add some new material to the article, only to find it gone.

By deleting contents in this manner, the editors (who work for free, and out of the goodness of their hearts) would tend to be discouraged, and then refrain from further participating, wouldn't you agree? user4


This is pretty much standard operating procedure on most wikis however if an entry is created as either a user sub-page or draft entry i.e. User4/The Major Uranians or Draft:The Major Uranians there is no problem with keeping it longer. If this is a page you wish to work on again, I can undelete it. --Etenne (talk) 13:59, 18 February 2015 (UTC)
