  • archive as historical on meta'. I'm sure this could be useful somewhere, but as Wikipedia is explicitly not a how-to guide it isn't there. Would fit on Wikibooks or Wikisource? I don't know too much about what they take and don't take. Thryduulf 23:32, 28 November 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete You mean, if I post something irrelevant to Meta, and no one notices it for three years, then we can keep it because it is now a "historical page"?

[edit] Talk:Wikiversity/Archive

I've copied the content of this page into Talk:Wikiversity/Old - I don't know where the content had come from, but there is only one version of the page in the history, so it was obviously copied and pasted from somewhere else in the first place. It's not a big deal, but it's just reducing the amount of archived talk pages we have for Wikiversity. Cormaggio @ 10:56, 20 March 2006 (UTC)

Seems best to just leave it where it was and delete the new page you created. One is worth keeping, but there's no pressing need to change the name. - Taxman 20:34, 25 March 2006 (UTC)
Sorry, just to explain, Talk:Wikiversity/Old and Talk:Wikiversity/Archive existed already - I didn't create a new page or a new name, I've simply merged them. I want the one which had no history (ie which had itself been copied from somewhere else) to be deleted. Cormaggio @ 07:51, 28 March 2006 (UTC)

Added the contents. how it looks now?

  • It looks fine, and is a good image, but it's still not appropriate. If the image is one you've taken then take it to commons and put a proper image license tag on it. That's what commons it for, not meta. And you should see there is already a really nice article on it at w:Harmandir Sahib. Delete. - Taxman 20:34, 25 March 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete all Infinity0 21:06, 23 March 2006 (UTC)
    • I am not using meta to publish my own work. I created an outline of a project which will be sincerely collaborative. It's a candidate for deletion at wikipedia because somebody flagged it as a suspect neologism. The discussions at wikibooks indicated that this project would be best at home on the Meta. I sincerely believe that this project will be right at home here, that it is not simply "original work." --Wikitopian 21:39, 23 March 2006 (UTC)
      • You call this an anarcho-capitalist project. I don't think that sort of project is appropriate for a neutral website such as wikimedia. You say discussion at wikibooks? Really? Then why does the talk page not exist? Infinity0 21:50, 23 March 2006 (UTC)
        • I will respect a concensus that this doesn't belong here if it doesn't belong here. You need to settle down and avoid flatly accusing me of deception when you haven't done your research. The conversation at wikibooks which I mentioned was under the deletion log, not in the talk page. It was suggested that I move the project to mediawiki. I'm not trying to "pull a fast one" and would appreciate it if you didn't make this a personal attack. Thanks. --Wikitopian 22:23, 23 March 2006 (UTC)
      • Well, the person who made the suggestion did not know the project was anarcho-capitalist in nature, as you have only explicitly stated so on the talk page of anarcho-capitalism. Infinity0 22:47, 23 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Antifeminism rant

This seems to be discussion from Wikipedia:Talk:Feminism, moved to the Meta-Wiki because it was unwanted there.

  • Delete. It seems to be just some unwanted rubbish that was dumped here. The original material is presumably still in the history of the relevant talk page on en, and can be retrieved and userfied on that wiki by anyone who finds it of value. --Tony Sidaway|Talk 14:19, 29 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment Actually, it is excerpts from the talk page moved to Meta to continue the discussion about what should not be allowed to happen in articles: the over-simplification of an article topic splitting into two opposing views, rather than collaborating to present both views within the article. The original events occurred in 2001, and for the next 3 years people added to the discussion on meta.

[edit] WikiBuchAktion

German, a book review or more likely just an outline of a book to be written. IMHO nonsense, author is looking for a place to publish/gather interested parties -> mentioning of the term "wiki". No meta relation, delete. --Mdangers 10:26, 16 April 2006 (UTC)
