Proposed deletion |
Miscellany for deletion (MfD) is a place where Wikipedians decide what should be done with problematic pages in the namespaces which aren't covered by other specialized deletion discussion areas. Items sent here are usually discussed for seven days; then they are either deleted by an administrator or kept, based on community consensus as evident from the discussion, consistent with policy, and with careful judgment of the rough consensus if required.
Filtered versions of the page are available at
Information on the process
What may be nominated for deletion here:
- Pages not covered by other XFD venues, including pages in these namespaces: Draft:, Help:, Portal:, MediaWiki:, Wikipedia: (including WikiProjects), User:, TimedText: and the various Talk: namespaces
- Userboxes (regardless of namespace)
- Pages in the File namespace that have a local description page but no local file (if there is a local file, Wikipedia:Files for discussion is the right venue)
- Any other page, that is not in article space, where there is dispute as to the correct XfD venue.
Requests to undelete pages deleted after discussion here, and debate whether discussions here have been properly closed, both take place at Wikipedia:Deletion review, in accordance with Wikipedia's undeletion policy.

User:Rayan al-ahmary
- User:Rayan al-ahmary (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs) – (View MfD)
This user page, which is the only edit by this editor, appears to be a translation of a copy of Samarium cobalt magnet from Arabic. It is a redundant fork, and so not a current copy of Wikipedia's information on the subject, and an attribution violation. The question that is known only to the editor, if even to them, is why an editor would do nothing but create a translation of a page into Arabic and save it as a user page. Regardless of why, it is not permitted. Robert McClenon (talk) 02:40, 18 April 2024 (UTC)

Machine translation shows that this is a copy from Wikipedia of a large amount of information about Minecraft. This has been the only editing by this user, except that the user talk page is a copy of the Roblox page, probably by the same user but logged out, and in English. This is probably U5 and in any case is not related to the English Wikipedia. Robert McClenon (talk) 23:54, 17 April 2024 (UTC)

- User:Plgu-lds/sandbox (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
This user page and this sandbox appear to be almost identical, and are the only edits made by this editor. They are almost certainly copied from a copyrighted source (although I did not find it on a brief search). They are not in any form resembling drafts and so do not appear to be related to Wikipedia. They are probably U5 and probably G12. Robert McClenon (talk) 23:37, 17 April 2024 (UTC)
- Delete - +68,145 edit saved only half an hour after the previous one, user definitely copied at least a significant part of this page from somewhere without crediting the original author. Flounder fillet (talk) 14:47, 18 April 2024 (UTC)

WP:COPIES of Roblox Flounder fillet (talk) 19:45, 17 April 2024 (UTC)
- Delete as another redundant fork. This is slightly different because it is in user talk space rather than user space, and the copy was done by an IP. So user page guidelines may not apply, but it is still a redundant fork. Robert McClenon (talk) 23:50, 17 April 2024 (UTC)

This user page consists of predictions of political events, and outlines for predictions of sports events, that were in the future at the time that it was created, but are now in the past. Wikipedia is not a crystal ball. These predictions were the primary editing of two user accounts, almost certainly one human, who made only a few other edits. They are marginal as to U5, and were crystal balling. Robert McClenon (talk) 17:07, 17 April 2024 (UTC)
- Delete - Not blatant, but still a WP:NOTWEBHOST violation - user was clearly trying to use Wikipedia as some kind of free substitute for spreadsheet software for purposes unrelated to the project. Flounder fillet (talk) 20:26, 17 April 2024 (UTC)

- Delete as a redundant fork of an existing article. The originators of these two or more redundant forks of Roblox are likely the same human, which is sockpuppetry, but the data is not only stale but very stale. These were likely a stupid exercise in amusement. Robert McClenon (talk) 16:47, 17 April 2024 (UTC)

A machine translation of this user page from the Spanish begins: "Architectural synthesis. Compendium of personal research." So this appears to be original research by an editor whose only contribution was this original research. It will never be a viable draft, both because it has no references, and because it is original research. Robert McClenon (talk) 15:43, 17 April 2024 (UTC)
- Delete - likely a use of Wikipedia for unrelated purposes, therefore a WP:NOTWEBHOST violation. Flounder fillet (talk) 20:38, 17 April 2024 (UTC)

Machine translation from Arabic shows that this is a very long and very poorly organized discussion of Christian scriptures, by an editor who created it in their user page, and has not used Wikipedia otherwise. It is not clear whether this was meant to be a draft article or a school assignment or whatever, so it is not obviously a candidate for U5, but it can never be brought into any usable form. Robert McClenon (talk) 15:36, 17 April 2024 (UTC)
- Delete - User posted this massive page 12 minutes after creating an account, this is 100% copy-pasted and probably copyvio (copyvio checker unfortunately doesn't work for Arabic). Flounder fillet (talk) 20:35, 17 April 2024 (UTC)

Machine translation shows that this is an unreferenced draft article about a village in Hiraan in Somalia. It is the only contribution of an editor who did nothing else. It does not qualify for U5 because it appears to be a poor-quality draft, but it is not about to be part of the English Wikipedia either in its current form or in a machine translation.

This user page is an unreferenced autobiography of a living person. The subject appears to be politically notable, but that notability is not verified, and verifiability is a non-negotiable policy. Creating this fake article in user space was the only activity by this editor. Robert McClenon (talk) 14:09, 17 April 2024 (UTC)
- Delete - unreferenced BLP, also given the length and the fact that this was created in a single edit this is likely either a copy or copyvio. Different article about same subject already exists in mainspace. Flounder fillet (talk) 19:59, 17 April 2024 (UTC)

This user page is a resume by a user who has made no other use of Wikipedia than to post this resume, and so can be deleted as U5. It is also an unreferenced biography of a living person. Robert McClenon (talk) 00:50, 17 April 2024 (UTC)

The antiquated revision of the Japanese article of which it is a copy is also unsourced. The current revision reads differently and has a fair number of references. We cover this topic in West Japan Railway Company#Urban Network; that is also unsourced and coverage seems weak. It would certainly be better to start fresh if translating.

Draft:Doucet, Quebec
- Draft:Doucet, Quebec (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs) – (View MfD)
This place does not appear to exist. I couldn't find it in the Canadian Geographical Names Database ([1]). There are a number of places or features called Lac-Doucet, but the only one that is a place (and not a geographical feature) is located at 46° 28′ 4″ N, 72° 38′ 23″ W, which is near Trois-Rivieres, neither north nor west. But notwithstanding not being able to find it on a map, I did find a source for the claimed coldest temperature record ([2]) which we've repeated (unsourced) in other articles, which seems like it warrants further investigation. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 19:20, 12 April 2024 (UTC)
- Well, I did find a Doucet, Quebec in the Canadian government's weather database, and it does record a temperature of -54.4 C on February 5, 1923. ([3]) There is no data for this place after the mid-1930s, and the coordinates given are the middle of a forest. Maybe there was a logging camp or something near here 100 years ago?

"Draft template" created by an anonymous IP, with no obvious explanation of what it would be used for. The text of it is "If i better operating system is needed, please add, copy and paste your template source page", but it's rather unclear what operating systems and template code have to do with each other, so it's not clear what purpose pasting your template source page anywhere would serve, and the template fails to explain where your template source page is to be pasted.

- No, it is not. The proposal is to alter these people’s userpages, altering their self-introductions, with an allegation that they are doing something wrong. There are therefore key stakeholders. Their contribution here is not to vote, but to explain, or defend. If the userbox is deleted, they may be accused of disruption if they put a similar back. This outcome is an obvious failing of natural justice. SmokeyJoe (talk) 04:27, 16 April 2024 (UTC)

- If like to ask them, what is it about the CCP that they hate. Then, I’m sure it can be improved by an edit. SmokeyJoe (talk) 11:12, 15 April 2024 (UTC)
- Keep - Hate of a political class of tyrants should not be equated with a group of individuals. Robert McClenon (talk) 02:44, 15 April 2024 (UTC)
- Keep. Dislike towards an organization (that has done "things") is different than hating millions of Chinese. I didn't think the word "hate" should immediately be construed as divisive. I didn't think "hating" the Nazi Party or ISIS is violating WP:UBCR.✠ SunDawn ✠ (contact) 11:03, 15 April 2024 (UTC)
- Keep: My usage of the anti-CCP infobox isn't of any malice towards Chinese culture or society at all, but as a protest against the party's omnipresent dominance and human rights violations that led to a moral decline within the country's political state, if not with China altogether. This includes but is not limited to Mao Zedong's cult of personality (similar with Joseph Stalin's), several massacres (Great Leap Forward, Cultural Revolution and Red August, the Tiananmen massacre and suppression of its discussion and the related), declining human and Internet rights, and other forms of crimes against humanity. That's what I hate about the party and its impact; I believe other users with the infobox aren't drastically different in motive. The party's slogan is "Serve the People", but it only serves itself, of a code not revealed to anyone with any sympathy. I wouldn't be anti-communist in the first place if all of this never happened. My use of this infobox is not light, and it speaks out for the preservation of common sense and human dignity. Carlinal (talk) 13:06, 15 April 2024 (UTC)
- Wording Change: I am a Hong Konger, and this template sums up a large part about my childhood in the city, so I'm definitely against deleting the template entirely (please see Hong Kong-Mainland China conflict). I personally have no problem using the word "hate" towards a political organization that has no respect for human rights whatsoever, but I can understand why some would feel problematic about this. So, I would be fine if the template is re-worded to take out the word "hate" but keep much of the meaning, something along the lines of: "This user strongly condemns the CCP (for its gross violations of human rights)".

- Delete. It is disruptive to use userspace or projectspace as a WP:SOAPBOX. Thebiguglyalien (talk) 21:14, 15 April 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: Not to move away from focus on this infobox, but with several more examples and an entire category's worth of similarly politically charged infoboxes, how exactly does this one cross the line? Carlinal (talk) 00:00, 17 April 2024 (UTC)
- This userbox being nominated doesn't mean it's special, it was just the one that happened to be nominated. Thebiguglyalien (talk) 01:40, 17 April 2024 (UTC)

- Delete Wikipedia is not a venue for expressing hate. * Pppery * it has begun... 01:55, 18 April 2024 (UTC)
- Delete per Pppery. No opposition to articulated nuanced criticisms, but clumsy hate is not ok. SmokeyJoe (talk) 03:58, 18 April 2024 (UTC)
- Delete: Wikipedia is not the venue for this divisiveness, and there is nothing positive that can come from this crude criticism. —Matrix(!) {user - talk? -
