Wikipedia:Article wizard/Ready for submission1
Misplaced draft, unreferenced, presumably a copy of the long-deleted Draft:Miguel B. Decena Jr. John of Reading (talk) 13:01, 8 June 2022 (UTC)
- Delete: As an unsourced BLP. SmokeyJoe (talk) 13:38, 8 June 2022 (UTC)
- Delete: BLP violation go bye-bye. — Ceso femmuin mbolgaig mbung, mellohi! (投稿) 16:04, 8 June 2022 (UTC)
- Delete: Biographies of living people without sources would get deleted sooner or later. weeklyd3 (message me | my contributions) 16:53, 8 June 2022 (UTC)
- Delete - I don't see a guideline calling for deletion of unsourced draft BLPs. Maybe there should be one. Unsourced BLPs in article space can be deleted. This is a misplaced draft in project space that has been abandoned by a soft-blocked originator. Robert McClenon (talk) 19:51, 8 June 2022 (UTC)
- Comment - Does the disapproval of unsourced draft BLPs mean that unsourced BLPs should not be pushed into draft space, as are other unsourced articles, and that they should instead be tagged for BLPPROD (or for A7 when appropriate)? Robert McClenon (talk) 19:51, 8 June 2022 (UTC)
- Yes. WP:BLP applies in every namespace. Building content on a living person, with no sources, is incompatible with WP:BLP. SmokeyJoe (talk) 21:50, 8 June 2022 (UTC)
- User:SmokeyJoe - BLPPROD only applies in article space. If you are proposing that it also apply in user space and draft space, that can be discussed in a policy forum. I see that the BLP policy states that it also applies in user and user talk space. A non-contentious change should be made to the wording of the policy to add draft space. I agree that is a basis for the deletion of unsourced BLPs from any non-article space via MFD. There isn't currently a more expeditious procedure for the deletion of non-article BLPs.

- “Unsourced BLP” is an excellent deletion reason at MfD. SmokeyJoe (talk) 06:39, 9 June 2022 (UTC)
- Broadening WP:BLPPROD to all namespaces has a strong argument. Against it is that BLPPROD in draftspace would be a pseudo-CSD, and so the WP:NEWCSD need to apply, and it currently fails only #3 “Frequent”. That makes it a perfectly good argument for MfD. Attention is drawn, and anyone interested in keeping the draft need only add a single (reliable) source before the end of the MfD. SmokeyJoe (talk) 04:17, 11 June 2022 (UTC)

- Speedy delete Per {{Db-a7}}. --Liuxinyu970226 (talk) 12:05, 10 June 2022 (UTC)
- @Liuxinyu970226 A7 (and the "A" series of deletion criteria generally) only apply to pages in the article namespace, see WP:ACSD 192.76.8.78 (talk) 15:36, 10 June 2022 (UTC)
- Delete as a draft that has been abandoned for 2 years and contains large amounts of unsourced content on a living person. This may not be an autobiography either (since the creator's username is different), which exacerbates said BLP issues. Glades12 (talk) 11:54, 12 June 2022 (UTC)
