Free Church of England

[edit]

It seems that you are attempting to remove several pages from the Free Church of England pages including the deletion of the page for one of their bishops. Please remove these spurious requests for deletion - the FCE is a GAFCON body, part of the third largest communion of Christians (after Roman Catholics and Eastern Orthodox). Arrowe6365 (talk) 21:27, 21 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

All articles must meet notability requirements. You should not be creating BLPs with zero secondary sources. By the way, the Anglican Communion is the third-largest Christian denomination. AusLondonder (talk) 21:36, 21 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
These articles do meet notability requirements.
As I have already said, GAFCON is part of the third largest Christian denomination, the Anglican Communion is also part of that same denomination. Impaired communion with the Archbishop of Canterbury doesn't make a new denomination, just a different alignment - the whole point of GAFCON (of which the FCE is a part).
I will be honest (given the leanings that are clear from your talk page), it comes across as an attack against a body with which you personally disagree. Arrowe6365 (talk) 22:25, 21 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
No idea what the last part of your message refers to. How about you add secondary sources when creating articles and we won't have an issue? It's really that simple. The Free Church of England is clearly not part of the Anglican Communion and to suggest otherwise is simply ludicrous. While BISHOPS is a ridiculous essay it explicitly refers to "Roman Catholic, Eastern Orthodox, Lutheran and Anglican Communion bishops" AusLondonder (talk) 22:41, 21 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, AusLondonder, how are you? I may be wrong, but I don't think we can delete a page as A7 if it contains a clear claim of significance such as "ambassador to Russia" – as long as that is a credible claim (even if unsourced or not supported by the source cited, as here). What's your take on that? Regards, Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 11:06, 1 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Justlettersandnumbers: I'm good hope you're doing well. Yeah fair enough you're probably right, there's a large number of these articles created by the same indefinitely blocked editor with no secondary sources and most of them lacking any substantive content and completely out of date, I've been slowing prodding them, just thought I'd try a CSD but I knew it was stretching it! AusLondonder (talk) 11:12, 1 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks! Yes, I think prod should work, it's effectively an unsourced BLP. Thanks for all the great stuff you do, including slowly clearing out this dross, of which there's still far too much. Regards, Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 11:17, 1 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for that nice message, appreciate it :) AusLondonder (talk) 12:23, 1 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:LGBT YouTube celebrities has been nominated for deletion

[edit]

Category:LGBT YouTube celebrities has been nominated for deletion. A discussion is taking place to decide whether it complies with the categorization guidelines. If you would like to participate in the discussion, you are invited to add your comments at the category's entry on the categories for discussion page. Thank you. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 02:48, 2 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

A tag has been placed on Category:Organisations based in Pietermaritzburg indicating that it is currently empty, and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, a featured topics category, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion. If it remains empty for seven days or more, it may be deleted under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and removing the speedy deletion tag. Liz Read! Talk! 20:33, 2 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Liz: Hi there Liz do you know what article was in this category before it became empty? Is there some way to check? AusLondonder (talk) 23:29, 2 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I would appreciate it if you could review the edit request on Talk: Gold Apollo AR924

[edit]

I have proposed an update to the Gold Apollo AR924 entry, as the current information appears to be outdated and inaccurate. Thank you for considering these changes, and I look forward to your feedback. 58.152.168.150 (talk) 16:27, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Nomination of Venezuela Solidarity Campaign for deletion

[edit]
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Venezuela Solidarity Campaign is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Venezuela Solidarity Campaign until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article until the discussion has finished.

re: heather chaplet category revertions

[edit]

Thx, sometimes it's a little hazy if i'm stretching the categories, her work is all about fashion and sustainability and all that so figured those categories were appropriate. I'm learning as I go with the category thing, it's the one edit type that perhaps perplexes me more than any others. Gregorcollins (talk) 18:02, 20 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
