In some cases, these are then reverted by irritated page owners¹. Can people please first tag pages they think should be removed into CategoryProposedDeletion² and add a banner to the affected pages: there's a template banner at the top of CategoryProposedDeletion that can be copied and pasted. Then wait an interval of at least 14 days³ before deleting the pages, in order to give people a chance to review the proposal? [1] e.g. <https://wiki.debian.org/Teams/Mutt?action=diff&rev1=12&rev2=13> [2] <https://wiki.debian.org/CategoryProposedDeletion> [3] interval proposed at <https://wiki.debian.org/MaythamAlsudany/DraftContentGuidelines/Discussion>. I hope we can update <https://wiki.debian.org/DebianWiki/EditorGuide#delete> accordingly. -- Please do not CC me for listmail. 👱🏻 Jonathan Dowland ✎ [email protected] 🔗 https://jmtd.net
