PRODs and BLPPRODs
[edit]Hi. Can you please slow down with PROD nominations, or at least spread them out across multiple days? Each PROD has to be manually reviewed, so having these additional ~50 expiring all at once is less than ideal. Also note that reliable external links count as sources for WP:BLPPROD as outlined at that page, so articles like Mubarak Ata Mubarak should not be tagged as such.

- Additionally, I reverted all four school articles you Prodded on the 24th. You need to Cite a valid reason for deletion, and as I'm pretty sure you've been told before, deletion processes do NOT apply to the article at hand, but rather to the subject of the article. WP:BEFORE is mandatory. Schools aren't automatically notable; you are absolutely correct in that. But simply stating that does not tell us anything about how that applies to those specific article. Further, simply being parochial, whether you mean that in the sense used in list title, or its formal general meaning, is not a reason to delete. You need to explain how it does not meet WP:NLIST. 4.37.252.50 (talk) 01:37, 27 August 2024 (UTC)
- Ah sorry re BLPPROD it was the first time I used it so had not noticed that rule. Re PROD I have no objection if you review them over several weeks or months. Chidgk1 (talk) 17:54, 30 August 2024 (UTC)
AFDs
[edit]Hello, Chidgk1,
It is not helpful to start a lot of AFD discussions and use a cookie-cutter deletion rationale, I did a search and it does not seem to be notable
, that doesn't demonstrate that WP:BEFORE has been done. You can't expect discussion participants to do more work than you spent evaluating articles and assessing their sourcing. I could rightfully close these all as Procedural closes because it looks like you just copied and pasted the same deletion rationale on a lot of AFDs you started without putting any effort into the process at all. What sources came up in your search? Is there a possible ATD? Provide more useful information here.
You need to read WP:BEFORE and go through all of the checks for every single article you are considering nominating and write a specific deletion rationale that relates to that particular article. No one is getting brownie points for the most articles deleted so take your time and do the nomination process carefully and thoughtfully. Sound good? Liz Read! Talk! 06:40, 31 August 2024 (UTC)
- Hello @Liz I don’t expect brownie points but if I and others were to put in as much effort as you suggest I wonder how many articles would be deleted each year. I suspect that most of us would get discouraged and give up on deletions. I realize that many of the 83 thousand completely unsourced articles are about notable subjects and that Wikipedia:WikiProject Unreferenced articles are valiantly working through them, but I suspect thousands are not.
- You might ask why it matters. I don’t know how Google search works, but might not thousands of rubbish articles hanging around for years drag down the reputation of Wikipedia as a whole and thus the visibility of articles I care about? Chidgk1 (talk) 11:19, 5 September 2024 (UTC)
