deletions

Hi, please do not delete redirects having valid lemmas. They are usually to be kept, since theses lemmas will be having articles, sooner or later, and deleting and then recreating the redirects is just a lot of unneccessary manual work, for which we do not have an automated way. Better to have them around, thus possibly motivating people co create the missing pages. Thank you. --Purodha Blissenbach ^(Klaaf) 14:01, 25. Auj 2008 (CEST)

If you find pages having valid titles but appently nonsential content, better remove the content, so as to keep the edit history. In cases of doubt insert {{delete}} in the page. Local admins will then take care, who can better decide which page title is a good one, or not. --Purodha Blissenbach ^(Klaaf) 14:06, 25. Auj 2008 (CEST)

Please do never delete talk pages without article pages, which are having an edit history documenting the process that lead to the deletion of the associated subject page. Deletion might be even an infringement GDFL terms. Again, in doubt insert {{delete}}. The presence of the associated box does not mean that the page should be deleted. It can be pure documentation of history. I this case, a page is not in the category:Wikipedia:Schmieß Fott! (For instance, pages like Saachjrupp Klaaf:Tellefon Fürwaal (Deutschland) is there, so as to show that, the category has once been renamed, or merged, which may be most useful spurring discussion, when someone e.g. suggests having it recreated) Thank you. --Purodha Blissenbach ^(Klaaf) 14:21, 25.

The template {{delete}} on a talk page may refer to the associated subject page. Please, do leave all this stuff to local admins, since you seem not to know about, or run for adminship on this wiki. You are welcome to fight apparent SPAM and apparent vandalism, though, of course. --Purodha Blissenbach ^(Klaaf) 14:32, 25. Auj 2008 (CEST)

Ok, I will keep back with further deletions, and hope I have not been causing you too much trouble. However, I must say that I don't see how deleting a page would ever cause a problem with the GFDL, except when the content is used to create another page. - Andre Engels 17:05, 25. Auj 2008 (CEST)
