The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was Mooted as per BGWhite. A version of the template code has been fixed up in sandbox, moved over to the template space, and applied to the article. Good work, that. UltraExactZZ ^Said~ Did 13:27, 26 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This is not an encyclopedic article but a random collection of table related things that serve absolutely no purpose. Stonewall speedy delete - but article is protected by admin for no reason. Barney the barney barney (talk) 20:39, 25 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep and move to template space. I protected the page because Barney repeatedly tagged it for speedy deletion as nonsense, as an A7-eligible subject, as a test page, and as other things, when it wasn't any of those things. Of course I wouldn't normally protect a page when someone inappropriately tags it for speedy, but when a user goes past 3RR with inappropriate tags, it's more productive to protect the page than to block the user for edit-warring. This is a very new pile of code that looks like a template; the creator is having code problems with this page and List of public art in Israel, so let's leave it alone until its purposes are clearer and we can move it to the right place.

- Actually, it was (and still is) all of those things. Barney the barney barney (talk) 21:13, 25 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep and move this seems to be either a temporary placeholder for some code or a malformed attempt to create a template. The solution is to move it, to userspace in the former case or to template space in the latter. Deleting it would accomplish nothing and would only make it harder for someone to contribute. This page absolutely does not qualify for any of the speedy deletion criteria it was tagged for, and edit warring to restore the tags was very disruptive. Hut 8.5 21:26, 25 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as CSD G2 or G6. All this work is saved in the creator's userspace. I've fixed the template there and moved it here: Template:Israeli public art. The rest of List of public art in Israel still needs tweaking though, if anyone feels like replacing template names. Funny ^Pika! 23:10, 25 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I'll be deleting the page after I move it. Close the AfD as it is not needed. Drkup has contacted me for help in this matter as I've helped WikiProject Israel Museum in the past. I've just moved a sandbox version to List of public art in Israel.

On a side note. Barney there is no reason to speedy a page six times in a span of 10 minutes. Most editors can't do complex wikicode. Assume good faith in these matters and offer some help, not six speedy deletes. The page serves a purpose as they were doing a template, but in the wrong space.
