Why the Big Speedydelete?

When we did the big delete in January, we were left with bunches of articles that were from Wikipedia, tagged for example with Category:Philosophy Workgroup (Top), but otherwise completely untouched. There are also many articles that someone made a tiny spelling correction to back in November, and which have never been touched since. These articles are diluting the database, so they should be deleted--especially since we can always upload the latest Wikipedia version. There is other "cruft," e.g., from vandals, that is cluttering the article database. This also needs to be deleted.

The result will be a cleaned-up and more honest representation of what we've done. Also, if we do a good job with this deletion, we can then remove "CZ Live" tags from our active articles, because all articles that are in our database will be CZ Live!

How to play the game

Sign up sheet

Authors and editors can sign up as "markers" to mark articles as deletable, while constables can sign up as "deleters" to actually do the deletion. If a constable wants to mark and delete at the same time, he/she should sign up in both categories.
To sign up, simply edit this page and place ~~~ in the appropriate place. You then take responsibility for that whole letter! If you need help, let somebody know--use the talk page.
