Most of the page is irrelevant to Wikimedia. Meta is not a webhost. NguoiDungKhongDinhDanh 16:44, 2 January 2026 (UTC)

Delete - From a quick glance at the sections and syntax, it mostly appears to be LLM generated. While Wikimedia is mentioned, I agree that most of the page is irrelevant to Wikimedia. – DreamRimmer ■ 15:27, 3 January 2026 (UTC)

Wikioundation

Incoherent, not useful. * Pppery * _{it has begun} 00:25, 8 January 2026 (UTC)

Delete - per nom. Doesn't even make sense. – DreamRimmer ■ 11:49, 8 January 2026 (UTC)

Delete. This is barely comprehensible as a proposal to create an encyclopedia focusing on certain types of charitable organizations, but stands no chance of being approved on those grounds, as it would inevitably be redundant to Wikipedia. The creator seems to be treating the proposal page largely as a playground to make up administrative processes and messaging. Omphalographer (talk) 07:16, 12 January 2026 (UTC)

Delete no useful content there. Ternera (talk) 14:51, 12 January 2026 (UTC)

Implausible and orphaned redirect. NguoiDungKhongDinhDanh 03:19, 23 January 2026 (UTC)

Clarification: I think the redirect is confusing because its name starts with WM but the target isn't in project namespace. NguoiDungKhongDinhDanh 05:36, 3 February 2026 (UTC)

Keep Existed since 2013, no clear reason for deletion of just the redirect. Delete the target instead since Wikimedia is not supposed to be a social network. * Pppery * _{it has begun} 06:10, 23 January 2026 (UTC)
@Pppery instead, or in addition? What would you want the "keep" page to have on it? — xaosflux ^Talk 16:23, 2 February 2026 (UTC)
I oppose deleting this redirect without deleting the target. Obviously if the target is deleted the redirect would also be. * Pppery * _{it has begun} 16:24, 2 February 2026 (UTC)
Thanks, wasn't sure if you wanted to repurpose it. — xaosflux ^Talk 16:30, 2 February 2026 (UTC)
Keep both. The target is relevant to Wikimedia so I don't see a problem there. Leaderboard (talk) 16:26, 2 February 2026 (UTC)

Template:Utente_GLAM

Please, delete this page. I tried to make it work by copying it from Wikipedia Italia, but I ended up reproducing its outcome directly in my profile. Minor issue: I think a page from meta cannot be included in a category on another project, like wikipedia italia, no turnaround for it, right? I guess I can be content this way. --Paperforth (talk) 10:49, 5 May 2026 (UTC)

Category:Charts

Please rename that cat if it's not about charts in general. Can't see how to start a category for discussion process here. --Prototyperspective (talk) 00:04, 4 April 2026 (UTC)

This is the discussion. What do you propose to rename it to? — xaosflux ^Talk 01:10, 4 April 2026 (UTC)

Pinging @Prototyperspective in case you missed the comment above. NguoiDungKhongDinhDanh 21:29, 7 April 2026 (UTC)

Well it depends on whether it's about charts in general and what it's currently for or intended to be for. Affiliations Committee/Members is included in it but does not contain any charts. For context about what charts are, see some examples at c:Category:Charts showing data through 2025. Maybe Category:Organizational lists but again it depends... Prototyperspective (talk) 21:50, 7 April 2026 (UTC)

It seems that no one cares about this much - so at this point go ahead and be bold and create what chart subcategory category you think would be good - nest your new category in the Charts category then move the pages. So as such, closing this as "Kept", but go ahead and subcategorize. — xaosflux ^Talk 14:46, 10 July 2026 (UTC)

This is an asset of w:User:Paul Stansifer's proposed Wikipedia logo from 2003. It should be restored because it's of historical interest and is linked by International logo contest/Final logo variants/Paullusmagnus. --Ljcool2006 (talk) 06:29, 17 July 2026 (UTC)

As a theoretical, these do fall into the appropriate timeframe for Template:GFDL-presumed as a presumptive license. EggRoll97 (talk) 16:14, 17 July 2026 (UTC)

Is there anything that's preventing you from restoring these files? You're an administrator so I assume you have the ability to undelete them. Ljcool2006 (talk) 09:37, 27 July 2026 (UTC)

@Ljcool2006: What xaosflux said above is why I have not done so. I do not think it is wise to restore the files without the uploader providing a proper license declaration. EggRoll97 (talk) 19:19, 27 July 2026 (UTC)
