- User:Drbogdan: Crosswiki selfpromotion. --Jan Kameníček (talk) 14:59, 5 October 2024 (UTC)
- Keep This is the user page of someone with tens of thousands of edits, and well within the bounds of what user pages of established users can contain. * Pppery * it has begun 15:32, 5 October 2024 (UTC)
- Well, I have just tried it. BTW: the above mentioned edits caused a lot of headache to en.wiki contributors and so he has been recently blocked there indefinitely. Now it seems that crosswiki selfpromotion, especially in various smaller projects, became quite a major task for him. In some of these projects his selfpromotional contributions outnumber all other contributions of his several times. Unfortunately, deleting his selfpromotional user page locally does not solve anything, as the self-promotion pops there up again from Meta. --Jan Kameníček (talk) 19:23, 5 October 2024 (UTC)
- Local projects that object to this appearing may create and protect a blank local user page. — xaosflux Talk 23:22, 5 October 2024 (UTC)
- That's at least not allowed on zhwiki, as such creation will only result Jimmy-bot's speedy deletion without warning. Liuxinyu970226 (talk) 16:41, 6 October 2024 (UTC)
- If zhwiki chooses to bind itself to Meta that way then it's its loss. * Pppery * it has begun 17:00, 6 October 2024 (UTC)

- Besides, the discussion of the block request at English Wikipedia shows that persistent self-promotion was one of the reasons leading to his indefblock there. --Jan Kameníček (talk) 21:41, 5 October 2024 (UTC)

- Delete This is the self-promotion of someone with several ten-thousands of SOA behaviors which can easily let everybody judge it as someone's moe moe duck. Liuxinyu970226 (talk) 16:46, 6 October 2024 (UTC)
- Sorry, what? And "SOA" is a dead link. * Pppery * it has begun 16:59, 6 October 2024 (UTC)
- Chinese ISP Proxies - legacy crud from 2006. Previously survived RfD in 2006 but we're better now. * Pppery * it has begun 17:47, 6 October 2024 (UTC)
Requests for new languages/Wikipedia Caló
editDiscussion open until at least 16 October 2024 (UTC)
- Requests for new languages/Wikipedia Caló (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)
This request, as well as its Incubator test project, are as nonsense as they are currently. The requestor doesn't understand Caló language, and put lot of absurd contents on Incubator, and put such a placeholder for their own funny. See also a mailing list post. --Liuxinyu970226 (talk) 08:09, 8 October 2024 (UTC)

Templates
editSubmit your template deletion request at the bottom of this section.
- Template:Other languages/Template:Main Page
- and all translation subpages.
Doesn't seem to be in use after MF-Warburg converted Main Page to use the translate extension. --Min☠︎rax«¦talk¦» 10:49, 18 August 2024 (UTC)
- Redirect Template:Main Page -> Main Page, Template:Main Page/en -> Main Page/en, etc. * Pppery * it has begun 15:09, 18 August 2024 (UTC)
Categories
editSubmit your category deletion request at the bottom of this section.
- Category:User styles - pointless relic category containing only obsolete pages, all useful content is on MediaWiki.org. * Pppery * it has begun 03:12, 18 August 2024 (UTC)
- Category:Navigation - pointless relic category containing only orphan translations, all useful content is on MediaWiki.org. * Pppery * it has begun 03:12, 18 August 2024 (UTC)
- Deleted. — xaosflux Talk 14:00, 25 September 2024 (UTC)
- Category:Page versions - amalgamation of unrelated stuff that isn't really a useful category anymore. * Pppery * it has begun 03:12, 18 August 2024 (UTC)
- Category:Reader handbook, Category:Editor handbook - These category layers are pretty much obsolete following the migration of most help pages to MediaWiki.org. The few help pages that stay on Meta can be in Category:MediaWiki handbook or one of its other subcategories directly. * Pppery * it has begun 03:12, 18 August 2024 (UTC)
- Category:Discussion systems - pointless, the one page here is in enough other categories. * Pppery * it has begun 02:07, 6 September 2024 (UTC)
- Deleted — xaosflux Talk 13:58, 25 September 2024 (UTC)
