August 25[edit]

Template:Bo-two → Template:Bo[edit]

The result of the debate was Deleted. -- JLaTondre 14:34, 1 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Template redirect without any conceivable use. --MZMcBride 20:20, 25 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete The template has an odd history; the author eventually elected to redirect link to current target over a year ago. --Aarktica 21:15, 25 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - unsuitable name (why the "-two"???) --ChrisDHDR ( • contrib's) 09:29, 27 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Main Page redirects[edit]

The result of the debate was Kept. This is not a viable mass-nomination. -- JLaTondre 14:35, 1 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

All of these are redirects in the main namespace whose targets are in the Wikipedia namespace. (Note: They haven't been marked due to the number of them.) --MZMcBride 19:11, 25 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep Several of these pages are actually functional in nature, and not simple redirects. I don't suggest deletion, especially not without full notification of the involved pages. At the least, I would bring it up on Category:Main Page alternatives FrozenPurpleCube 23:42, 26 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    • As far as I'm aware, all of these pages are redirects. I made a point to remove the non-redirects. Also, I can put up a notice on Category talk:Main Page alternatives, though I doubt anyone will see it there. Cheers. --MZMcBride 00:00, 27 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Well, you might as well put up a notification there, it can't hurt, though I think there's little chance of this proceeding en masse anyway. I'm not really seeing a convincing reason to remove the redirects here anyway, none of them are even reasonably close to being article titles. FrozenPurpleCube 16:23, 27 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Close the mass-nomination and investigate these individually. Despite being apparent redirects into the Wikipedia-space, some of these appear to have a role in transclusion and in the functioning of various Main Page formats. These need more than casual investigation. They must be tagged so that the people who work most with the Main Page layouts can see and comment on which ones are still needed.

CAT:Fromowner → Category:Fromowner[edit]

The result of the debate was Deleted. -- JLaTondre 14:37, 1 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It is not a valid use for shortcut because it is not written in all caps. - I've already moved the old information into CAT:FROMOWNER. ~Iceshark7 13:22, 25 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
