*'''Delete''' -It falls in the same category as the unofficial jococruisecrazy 3 group pages. This page really existed ONLY to provide additional optional focused context supporting the page "JoCo_Cruise_Crazy/JoCo_Cruise_Crazy_3" that linked to it. (I gave a big concert on JCCC3) I didn't know about user namespace. Now that JCCC3 is past, I'm fine with deleting it.

Shortcut:
VFD

This page caters to votes for deletion of pages which do not meet the agreed upon criteria for page standards.

To Do

  • Create a criteria for what warrants deletion - Work in progress

Discussion on this topic will be held at JoCopedia talk:Deletion Policy

Templates and Procedures

Or, How to VFD for Beginners.

If you see a page that you feel falls short of the criteria for pages, you should:

  • Add {{VFD}} to the top of the page.
  • Write +VFD in the Edit Summary.
  • Come here and copy and paste the pretty table, rename the title to the page's title and cast your vote.
    • Try and be descriptive in the nomination vote (the first one) of why you feel the page should be deleted.

All interested users should:

  • Check here regularly to deliver their verdicts on the nominations' fate.

Once a page has been under vote for approximately 2 weeks, a moderator should:

  • Delete it and archive the vote.
  • Add {{VFDSurvivor}} to the page's talk page if it survived the vote.
  • Add it to WikiProject:Tidy Up in the appropriate category, if a page got a generally weak "keep" response or users mention it needs work.

Fine Print

Users who suggest a page be kept on the proviso that it gets tidied up, rewritten, spell-checked etc. are essentially volunteering to do so themselves. If a page survives a vote and you voted so, please do what you can to improve the page.

NO JOKE VFDs. Don't nom the Main Page, or anything silly like that.

No VFDs of user pages. If its yours and you don't want/need it anymore, QVFD is what you need.
VFD is for borderline pages which need a community consensus. Never nom another user's sub-pages (a user page is a sub page of a user's namespace i.e. User:Username/Sub Page. User-pages are sacred. If you spot a user-page which seems dodgy, contains porn or other objectionable content, please contact a moderator immediately or list on QVFD explaining the exceptional circumstances. If you don't like User:Percephene/My JoCo Fanfic Involving Pikachu too bad!

You may not remove the {{VFD}} template from a page until the vote has run its course.
Exception: A moderator can remove a VFD tag from a page if it is clearly not a VFD candidate i.e. the above two circumstances.

Votes for Deletion

Unofficial JoCo Cruise Crazy 3 Groups

Pages like I Crunch Everything, Snorkel Monkeys, Speed Meeting, etc. These all are similar so I'm just going to lump them all here. Most pages there are completely unofficial, are barely one sentence long, and have almost no notability whatsoever. Should we delete them? AirCon 16:27, 31 March 2013 (EDT)


Keep

Votes to keep go here: *Keep - Then your comment and signature.

We already have an admin page, is this even necessary? AirCon 15:21, 15 April 2013 (EDT)

Comments
  • not sure. the talk page is the important thing there. we could probably replace it with a Contact page, per TMBW. -apollo (colloquia!) 16:09, 15 April 2013 (EDT)
  • just kidding, i don't know what i'm saying — [meta namespace]:user group is a standard feature on wikis. it definitely needs to exist, though it could just redirect here. i'm writing up a contact page, BUT i'm still not sure whether or not we should preserve the noticeboard institution? -apollo (colloquia!) 16:16, 15 April 2013 (EDT)
  • Well, I think we could move that talk page there to JoCopedia talk:Administrators. AirCon 19:49, 15 April 2013 (EDT)
  • maybe. let's see if others weigh in. -apollo (colloquia!) 20:08, 15 April 2013 (EDT)
