Tagging pages for deletion

Hello, Thenightaway,

It was pointed out in an AFD discussion you started that you don't use Twinkle to tag pages for deletion (CSD, PROD, AFD/RFD/CFD/etc.) and you are not taking the important step of notifying the page creator of the deletion discussion. This is not fair to content creators who work to establish and improve articles. They have a right to participate in a discussion of whether articles or drafts they created are deleted.

I really encourage you to give Twinkle a try as it is used by most page patrollers and many administrators. Twinkle will set up deletion discussion pages for you, allow you to tag articles, welcome new editors, report vandals, post warnings to editors that are troublesome, it even will maintain deletion logs for you that are helpful to review. Twinkle basically remembers all of the templates you might need to use so you don't have to search for them. Just remember to set up your Twinkle Preferences to "Notify page creator" and then when you tag a page for deletion, Twinkle will post a notice on your behalf on the article creator's User talk page. If you don't want to use Twinkle, then please take the time to write a message yourself, informing the page creator of the AFD discussion. But it's easier to let Twinkle do this for you. Thanks.

You have removed a lot of sourced content based on your opinion that it is "all poorly sourced puffery". Can you explain why what you have done is not simply vandalism? NoMatterTryAgain (talk) 11:06, 13 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
