I.O.U.[]

I've added this page to the candidates for deletion because I think the info fits better into the page for the episode: The Reichenbach Fall. I don't think it needs it's own page - the info will be found easier there and adds really well to that page. --AO (talk) 20:49, March 9, 2013 (UTC)

Pages proposed for deletion category[]

This category is no longer needed since there is already a Candidates for deletion page. --Sherrinford (talk) 08:26, March 14, 2014 (UTC)

This category is needed as it's the category pages are added to when they are proposed for deletion.--Amateur Obsessive (talk) 09:31, March 14, 2014 (UTC)
How is this different from the candidates for deletion category? This category is also empty, if you've missed it. --Sherrinford (talk) 15:56, March 14, 2014 (UTC)
I'm not sure what you mean. This is the candidates for deletion category and it isn't empty. Am I misunderstanding you? --Amateur Obsessive (talk) 16:32, March 14, 2014 (UTC)
I meant this category --Sherrinford (talk) 17:02, March 14, 2014 (UTC)
Ah, well strictly speaking the discussion about a pages deletion should go on the page in question. Having said that, I'd rather not delete pages/categories that are to do with the maintenance of the wiki, even if we aren't using them at the moment. --Amateur Obsessive (talk) 17:06, March 14, 2014 (UTC)
Yes but can you explain how the pages proposed for deletion category differ from the candidates for deletion category? --Sherrinford (talk) 17:10, March 14, 2014 (UTC)
It's a similar category, but we're not using it at the moment. Does it matter? --Amateur Obsessive (talk) 17:13, March 14, 2014 (UTC)

Well, madame founder, respectfully, you said we should be deleting categories that are not needed. What's the use of this category if it's the same with another? --Sherrinford (talk) 17:23, March 14, 2014 (UTC)

I don't remember saying that. But in this case sometimes you don't see what use pages/categories are that are connected to wiki maintenance, but they can end up being useful or needed in the future. It's not a category that people are going to come across without actively searching for it so I don't think it's going to confuse people or anything like that. --Amateur Obsessive (talk) 17:33, March 14, 2014 (UTC)
Point taken. Still, if it's empty I see no utility in keeping it. --Sherrinford (talk) 17:36, March 14, 2014 (UTC)

For clarification[]

I've just been reading your discussion with Sherrinford and you wrote "the discussion about a pages deletion should go on the page in question" but in the heading you stated to "Please use this page to discuss pages that have been labelled for deletion." Can you clarify? --121.54.54.40 17:44, March 14, 2014 (UTC)

That was just an old page header, I've removed it now. --Amateur Obsessive (talk) 18:33, March 14, 2014 (UTC)
