Welcome to the Articles for Deletion or AFD for short. Here you can submit proposals to delete or merge articles.

Rules

  • To submit a proposal, complete one of the forms below and save it on this page's talk page. As a courtesy to readers, place {{Deletion}} at the top of any articles you are proposing to delete.
  • Proposals pass: (1) when eight users vote for, or (2) when six users vote for and zero users vote against.
  • Proposals fail: (1) when eight users vote against, or (2) when six users vote against and zero users (besides the original proposer) vote for.
  • If your proposal fails, you can resubmit it after a week.
  • To vote, click "[edit]" next to the option you want to vote for, and add # ~~~~. ( # tallies your vote, and ~~~~ is your signature.) If you want to add your reasoning too, vote like this: # reasoning here ~~~~.
    • You can vote for your own proposal. (The forms below have your vote filled in already.)
  • Staff members may vote just like any other member.
  • The staff reserves the right to remove proposals and the right to skip the AFD process. They'll try to be reasonable about things, and if you want to discuss a decision, you can leave a message on a staff member's talk page or the AFD's talk page. Likewise, in special circumstances, you can ask a staff member and they may let you skip the AFD process.

Tips

  • If you propose merging articles, writing a rough draft of the new, merged version is helpful. You can write rough drafts on BIONICLEsector01:Sandbox or on your own sandbox page (for example, User:Dorek's sandbox is at User:Dorek/Sandbox).
  • When users vote against proposals, they often give reasons why. If your proposal fails, retrying every week won't get you anywhere unless you address other users' feedback. On the other side of things, if you vote against a proposal, it's helpful to give your reasons why, especially if they are different from the reasons others have mentioned.
