IP soul mate
This page is purely original research, and I see no point to keep it here. Stang 22:06, 5 January 2022 (UTC)
- That page was not "research", but rather intended for humour. I have addressed the concern by rephrasing it into an essay. While I would prefer to keep it, I wouldn't mind otherwise. Kind regards and have a nice day. Elominius (talk) 01:20, 10 January 2022 (UTC)
- Seems in line with the other pages we have about editors, I think this can be humor and leaning keep. Camouflaged Mirage (talk) 09:08, 15 January 2022 (UTC)
Kept. Tagged humorous too. —MarcoAurelio (talk) 22:17, 16 January 2022 (UTC)

Tech/News/2022/08/ak
This translation has no links and can't be fixed. I'm not even sure if the text is a translation of the source. Several translations from user:Ohvet have already been deleted, and the user has been warned several times. They haven't taken the advice given into account. Thank you, Trizek (WMF) (talk) 16:46, 21 February 2022 (UTC)
- @Trizek (WMF): Thanks. I've deleted the page. If the user is not translating pages correctly after being warned, we could consider suspending (via a partial block limited to the Translations namespace) their translation permissions (absent a better option). Please ask in RFH if we've reached that level. Regards, —MarcoAurelio (talk) 17:01, 21 February 2022 (UTC)
- Thank you @MarcoAurelio. I will follow up there. Trizek (WMF) (talk) 17:06, 21 February 2022 (UTC)

Out of Meta's scope. Don't think that there is a need to move this to incubator as it seems to be a low quality translation of wikinew's policy. --Minorax«¦talk¦» 16:54, 26 February 2022 (UTC)

Category:User groups or Category:Users by access
I request to merge these two categories by deleting Category:User groups and then move Category:Users by access to Category:User groups. —— Eric Liu(Talk) 13:16, 25 January 2022 (UTC)
- Oppose the former is a category about groups, the later about users - these should not be merged. — xaosflux Talk 11:19, 1 February 2022 (UTC)
- Oppose per Xaosflux. --Hulged (talk) 07:33, 3 February 2022 (UTC)
- Oppose per above. --𝑇𝑚𝑣 (𝑡𝑎𝑙𝑘) 02:25, 12 February 2022 (UTC)
- Oppose. These two are not entirely the same.--Jusjih (talk) 20:42, 13 February 2022 (UTC)
- Keep both, per above, absolutely differents between both concepts. --Liuxinyu970226 (talk) 03:03, 14 February 2022 (UTC)

Category:CC-BY-2.5
Being empty for now and acceptable on Commons, do we need it here?--Jusjih (talk) 20:45, 13 February 2022 (UTC)
- Delete Not very useful, files licensed so are fully Commons allowed. Liuxinyu970226 (talk) 03:02, 14 February 2022 (UTC)
- Delete per Liuxinyu970226--Pierpao (talk) 12:47, 10 March 2022 (UTC)
- Comment: There are at least 59 files with no machine-readable license data (thousands more lack machine-readable author and/or source). Are we sure that we won't be needing this category if, one day, we manage to go through this forgotten backlog? —MarcoAurelio (talk) 18:28, 11 March 2022 (UTC)
Template:Humour
Duplicate of Template:Humor/fr. Little usage that can be replaced afterwards -or- we can redirect it to Template:Humor/fr. —MarcoAurelio (talk) 11:28, 17 January 2022 (UTC)
- Replace uses and then redirect to Template:Humor. Use of the British English spelling is not by itself sufficient to indicate French. * Pppery * it has begun 16:47, 17 January 2022 (UTC)
- Replace and redirect. As there are probably more people in the UK, Singapore, Canada, Australia, India, Ireland or really most Commonwealth countries than the total number of French speakers, I would expect that more people would probably end up looking for the English version. SHB2000 (talk | contribs) 11:56, 25 January 2022 (UTC)
- Replace and redirect per SHB2000. Hulged (talk) 05:43, 1 February 2022 (UTC)
- Replace and redirect per SHB2000 archive talks and delete translation subpages--Pierpao (talk) 11:48, 14 March 2022 (UTC)
- Done (Think I got it all, if anything is missing just ping me on my talk page). — xaosflux Talk 13:44, 21 March 2022 (UTC)
- @Hulged: following up here; the discussion above appears to be that there should be one callable template, {{Humor}} - which is in English, and that anyone using {{Humour}} should get {{Humor/fr}}. Are you expecting a different end result? If there is some other specific cleanup outstanding, please let us know exactly what still needs to be done. — xaosflux Talk 15:10, 21 March 2022 (UTC)
SRC
Author requests speedy deletion, but I feel we should keep this as a useful shortcut. —Svārtava (t/u) • 02:33, 2 April 2022 (UTC)

Speedy deleted per G6. --WhitePhosphorus (talk) 07:23, 2 April 2022 (UTC)
Vandalism
- Tagged for speedy deletion with reason: Cross-namespace redirect. I'm neutral because of the existence of a better shortcut WM:VN but also because I don't think it does any harm. Since it's a widely linked page as can be seen in WhatLinksHere and not a recent creation, I would like to see a consensus here before its deletion. —Svārtava (t/u) • 10:40, 5 April 2022 (UTC)
- Keep. It might be good to convert it into a disambiguation page for e.g. Meta:Vandalism § See also or other pages that deal with vandalism. —MarcoAurelio (talk) 11:05, 5 April 2022 (UTC)
- Keep I use it myself sometimes. Useful enough. NguoiDungKhongDinhDanh 18:44, 5 April 2022 (UTC)
- Keep per NguoiDungKhongDinhDanh. --SHB2000 (talk | contribs) 09:48, 23 April 2022 (UTC)

- Out of project scope. In addition many of the accounts listed either do not exist or have not added themselves to the page. --Johannnes89 (talk) 16:20, 23 April 2022 (UTC)

- Agreed these are out of scope for Meta. If the consensus is to transwiki them to enwiki I suggest to lodge a request on w:Wikipedia:Requests for page importation so they can assess if these are worth importing. —MarcoAurelio (talk) 09:10, 11 May 2022 (UTC)

$1
Don't think this redirect is necessary. Stang 01:56, 7 May 2022 (UTC)
- I think this serves a good purpose. If we delete the page there will be a lot of links to $1 in the

namespace, as a result of which, this page will show up in the Special:WantedPages. To avoid that, it should be kept, IMO. Hulged (talk) 04:01, 7 May 2022 (UTC) - Kept as there is good use case identified and no other support for deletion. — xaosflux Talk 12:08, 15 May 2022 (UTC)
