Deletion. I do not need any of the Andrew J Powers pages. I am also requesting all subpages of this to be deleted. I dont want people getting confused with my old user and my new user. Andrew Powers (talk) 23:35, 13 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • No such page has ever existed in the database. Do you mean User:Andrew J Powers? If so (and assuming that all your prior contribution history was correctly moved to your new ID), you don't need an RfD debate for this request. Just tag the pages with {{db-u1}}.

We have no more "Former pupils" categories on Wikipedia, as all have been eliminated in favor of "People educated at" and "Alumni" categories. Thus, these would no longer be expected to exist.-- Mike Selinker (talk) 05:58, 13 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete all (as creator). The nominator's rationale is correct: there are no other "former pupils" categories, so there is no reason for the reader to to expect this format to be used. This was probably the case when I created them, so I shouldn't have created them :( --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 11:56, 13 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    • I'm sure you should have created them back then. They just have no use now.--Mike Selinker (talk) 13:42, 13 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Left over from history merge, no useful content, not a plausible search term, not a subpage as there are no subpages in article namespace. Gurch (talk) 13:19, 13 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned. No mention of "tango" in target article. Could not find any reference to the concept in any other article, or on the Web unless it means this. Neutrality policy discourages use of the term in connection with individuals and groups in any case. Gurch (talk) 13:31, 13 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • This is based on "tango", the NATO phonetic pronunciation of the letter T, the first initial in "terrorist". Some computer game (Call of Duty, maybe?) decided to include that as a nickname in the game dialog. I know of no instances where active servicemembers use that initialism. It doesn't even rise to the level of a neologism in my opinion. Delete. Rossami (talk) 03:40, 15 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
