Deletion debate
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/48/Keep_tidy.svg/55px-Keep_tidy.svg.png)
The following information has failed Wiktionary's deletion process.
It should not be re-entered without careful consideration.
This category currently serves various simultaneous purposes and contains various pieces of information.
- Topical category of the entries Wikimedia Commons, Wikinews, Wikipedia and Wikispecies.
- Parent category of Category:WMF jargon, that (redundantly, in my opinion) contains all the aforementioned entries.
- Parent category of Category:Wikimedia logos.
- An illustrated list of Wikimedia projects.
- A short description of Wiktionary: "Wiktionary is run by the Wikimedia Foundation, a non-profit foundation registered in Florida, USA. Wikimedia operates several other multilingual and open-content sister wiki projects"
- A very obscure introduction: "This category is for projects in the Wikimedia family."
It is very messy and seemingly unnecessary. All these functions can be fulfilled by other pages: the description of "Wiktionary" and the illustrated list of projects is found in WT:Main Page; Category:WMF jargon may possibly be a child of Category:Internet, Category:Wiki, etc.; and Category:Wikimedia logos as the only category of images fits Category:Fundamental nicely.
Therefore, please either delete Category:Wikimedia or make it useful. --Daniel. 01:59, 16 March 2011 (UTC)
- First, we get rid of entries in the #Category:WMF jargon, like in the deletion request I've made above. Then we can thoroughly delete any redundant categories and useless categories and so forth. TeleComNasSprVen 07:34, 16 March 2011 (UTC)
- Category:Wikimedia has many problems, that persist regardless of the results of the deletion request you mentioned. Why should Category:WMF jargon take precedence? --Daniel. 10:39, 16 March 2011 (UTC)
- Certainly don't keep it in its current form, it's a mess. Mglovesfun (talk) 13:17, 16 March 2011 (UTC)
