Hi @TheDaveRoss, I see that you recently deleted this page as an "unwanted redirect", I was wondering if you could point me to a discussion that concluded that the redirect was unwanted? I understand that it is a little odd to have a Wiktionary namespace redirect link to a user subpage, but the drafted proposal for a policy on redirects currently leaves open the idea of "pages in non-main namespaces harmlessly redirect to a different non-main namespace" (for the record, I recently changed the phrasing of this line) —The Editor's Apprentice (talk) 19:48, 30 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

It shouldn't have been created in the first place, the Wiktionary namespace is not an appropriate venue for this type of content. The Wiktionary namespace is for project-level information, not user information, that is what the User namespace is for. It would be similarly inappropriate for me to make Wiktionary:TheDaveRoss and have that redirect to my user page. - TheDaveRoss 14:38, 1 September 2023 (UTC)Reply

The following information has failed Wiktionary's deletion process (permalink).

It should not be re-entered without careful consideration.

Undeletion of WT:WF

Was deleted by @TheDaveRoss, but it is still useful. As a case in point, I tried to access it just now. Ping also @The Editor's Apprentice re the discussion at Wiktionary talk:WF. This, that and the other (talk) 10:12, 2 September 2023 (UTC)Reply

Keep deleted. See: User talk:Wonderfool § RFM discussion: June–August 2023 AG202 (talk) 14:09, 2 September 2023 (UTC)Reply
At the discussion linked by AG202 there seemed to be a fairly solid consensus not to include this kind of stuff in the Wiktionary namespace, and I agree with the points expressed there about putting individual users on a pedestal, so I would say keep deleted. —Al-Muqanna المقنع (talk) 14:22, 2 September 2023 (UTC)Reply
Ooh, it finally got deleted! It was created as a joke back in (when??? the 2010s?), and WF thought only WF would ever use it or even notice it. Jin and Tonik (talk) 22:03, 3 September 2023 (UTC)Reply
I lean undelete, but am not set on reviving the page. For posterity's sake, the dozen or so now broken links (as record at the "what links here" page) should be fixed if the page is kept deleted. I personally found the short link helpful for quickly checking the sockpuppet list. The last thing I'd say is that in my opinion the short link doesn't glorify Wonderfool in the same way as hosting the sockpuppet list under the Wiktionary would have as proposed in the aforementioned RFM discussion. Take care. —The Editor's Apprentice (talk) 17:58, 5 September 2023 (UTC)Reply
@The Editor's Apprentice FYI, WT:WF and Wiktionary:WF are the same thing. Theknightwho (talk) 10:18, 6 September 2023 (UTC)Reply
Thanks for the note, I am aware of this fact. Take care. —The Editor's Apprentice (talk) 17:12, 6 September 2023 (UTC)Reply
Keep deleted; this doesn't belong in Wiktionary namespace. Benwing2 (talk) 11:48, 27 September 2023 (UTC)Reply
