I already redirected one of the articles that was a couple of sentences from Diet and cancer (no merge was needed). Original author's justification for creating the articles was since we have articles such as list of sex positions etc then we should also have this kind of articles which violates WP:OTHERSTUFF. As a stand alone article, doesn't seem to be a notable enough topic with content that isn't already better covered in other articles. PHARMBOY (TALK) 12:21, 4 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. I'm not sure that we need a list when there are really only two articles that will ever be on it- squatting defecation posture and sitting defecation posture. That doesn't seem, to me, to be enough for a list. If those two articles are developed and kept, they'd be just as useful as links from the defecation article. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 12:27, 4 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
* Added 2 more I added the two articles. The one is simply a cut and paste from the cancer article, again with rationale that other "similar" articles about sex exist. Please note that "under construction" tags were added AFTER the afd process began. PHARMBOY (TALK) 12:30, 4 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- I still develop the articles. Can you please let me make them non-stub first before considering deletion? NerdyNSK (talk) 12:37, 4 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Note that I see no reason not to have defecation-related articles and lists since we already have articles like list of sex positions. Remember that Wikipedia is not censored. NerdyNSK (talk) 12:41, 4 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Please read wp:OTHERSTUFF to see why that is a non-valid argument and will be ignored by the closing admin in an AFD. PHARMBOY (TALK) 12:43, 4 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Merge & redirect all into Defecation#Defecation posture. If they become developed enough in the future, they can be split from the parent article- but that time is not yet. —Ashanda (talk) 12:59, 4 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- comment Original author has redirected as Ashanda has suggested, which after seeing, I agree is worthwhile. Removing the two other articles, only the List now exists in this AFD. If original author agrees and wants to blank the "list" page and put a speedy tag on it, I can withdraw this afd. PHARMBOY (TALK) 13:15, 4 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
