A request for comment has been made for this page. Please add your thoughts!


See following for RFC:

Create a criteria for what warrants quick deletion

  • Not about JoCo or even vaguely related to anything to do with him
  • Vanity - i.e. pages about how cool the user is, how dumb their friend is or how much they hate their school.
  • Random rubbish - Rather similar to the above but less coherant
  • Unneeded pages - i.e. redirects from when pages have been moved, user pages the user no longer wants (note, only the user themself should nom their user pages for deletion, userspace is sanctuary imo)
  • Double redirects ~ Percephene ~ talk contribs 04:40, 30 April 2008

Have an agreement between moderators on who will handle the deletions

I'm guessing all, since this will be a fairly quick and infrequent job. ~ Percephene ~ talk contribs 04:40, 30 April 2008

Agree on process that will take place if a moderator does not swiftly delete the page, i.e. they decide it is good enough to keep.

Either a template that mods can post into the page saying "I've check up to here" and then dilligent users can go through and nom checked pages for VFD (I'd be happy to do this) or the mod who checks it VFDs it themself or if its totally worth keeping the mod should quickly write this next to the page's link so decent pages who get joke-nommed or accidently-nommed don't waste time on VFD. ~ Percephene ~ talk contribs 04:40, 30 April 2008

If we draw up the "this page has been nommed" template, then of course that should go on the page that's been joke/accidentally nommed. For now I've set up an archive, so this page doesn't get bogged with old noms, not sure if we want to keep non-deleted pages on the main QVFD page for a while before moving, though. --Lex (talk - contribs) 06:02, 30 April 2008 (EDT)
Well because its Quick VFD I wasn't going to bother with a nommed template because it is likely to be deleted within minutes/hours. As for keeping them there for a bit I would think that would be a good idea, just for a record, and so non-mod users can see what has and what hasn't been huffed (bahleeted). You could quite happily get away with archiving every month or so IMO. At Uncyc we separated the QVFD noms by a day header for clarity but I doubt that will be necessary here, just yet anyway. I think its nice to leave them there so we can see progress! ~ Percephene ~ talk contribs 04:18, 01 May 2008

Feedback

This seems to be working great! Thanks to the admins who clear it so diligently! :D How is everyone finding the system, is it working for you? I would like some feedback on the questions above this too so we can agree on the process and set it in stone :P Cheers! ~ Percephene ~ talk contribs 12:38, 06 May 2008
