Below is a list of articles proposed for deletion. Let's put even obviously useless stubs on there and leave them for one month, during which anyone who objects can raise their arguments there. If after a month, no one has objected, editors can simply delete the article. If objections are raised, we'll see if an agreement can be reached either to keep the article, or adjust associated topics to work around the deletion.
When an article is proposed for deletion by placing '''<nowiki>{{PropDel}}</nowiki>''' at the top of its page, it is automatically categorised at [[:Category:Articles for deletion]]. If immediate deletion is necessary – for example, the article is a hoax or a duplicate – that can be done by a sysop.  


Please add proposed deletions to the bottom of the table below (create extra rows if needed). If you wish to oppose deletion of any article, please complete columns 5 and 6.
Normally, an article will remain under proposal for one month, allowing time for anyone who objects to raise an argument on the article's talk page. If an objection is raised, the nominator may withdraw the proposal by removing the template. If the nominator stilll thinks the article should be deleted, the matter will be decided following discussion by a consensus if possible. If there is no consensus, the article will be given the benefit of the doubt and retained. It may always be possible to adjust associated topics to work around the proposal.

When an article is proposed for deletion by placing {{PropDel}} at the top of its page, it is automatically categorised at Category:Articles for deletion. If immediate deletion is necessary – for example, the article is a hoax or a duplicate – that can be done by a sysop.

Normally, an article will remain under proposal for one month, allowing time for anyone who objects to raise an argument on the article's talk page. If an objection is raised, the nominator may withdraw the proposal by removing the template. If the nominator stilll thinks the article should be deleted, the matter will be decided following discussion by a consensus if possible. If there is no consensus, the article will be given the benefit of the doubt and retained. It may always be possible to adjust associated topics to work around the proposal.
