User:Insertwackynamehere wants this deleted. If he posts reasons I'll re-add the {{delete}} template, but I'm removing it until then. o

- This is technically against our deletion policy. If you disagree with Wacky, fine; do it by voting "keep", not by trying to stifle the whole conversation.
- Admittedly, deletion seems highly unlikely in light of our policy about PWADs. Is that why you did it? Ryan W 10:51, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
- That, and he didn't post reasons for deletion. I wasn't trying to stifle conversation, by the way, I was trying to encourage conversation by making him post reasons. This doesn't matter now, but just so you know... oTHErONE (Contribs) 04:21, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
- I suppose that makes sense, but one important effect of the deletion policy is to keep the article in Category:Delete for at least a week, so it can be noticed by editors who don't read the entire changelog (or even check it on a daily basis). That's especially important when neither editor uses the edit summary to indicate that deletion was being discussed, as was the case here.
- The immediate cause of the current policy was that certain people would apparently remove the {{delete}} template to express their displeasure that a discussion was even occurring. It doesn't sound like you did that, which is good. But just so you know. Ryan W 05:23, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
- I'm glad to see you assuming good faith. :-) oTHErONE (Contribs) 13:22, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
- Nevermind, I'm sorry I posted it. I was browsing new stuff quickly and thought this was a joke. I'm removing the template. --{{SUBST:nosubst|User:Insertwackynamehere/Signature}} 01:51, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
