Mamori River

 * Delete. Another stub, being attacked as part of our housekeeping effort. This one was originally added by a tour guide running tours from Manaus.  Since hijacked by another tour operator also running tours from that city.  There are so many bits of water in the vicinity of Manaus that can be reached by tour, the value of keeping this content seems low, and only seems to promote the tour operators going there.  The onlly mention of this destination on google is wikivoyage and its followers, which always makes me a bit sus.  --(WT-en) inas 23:54, 10 June 2010 (EDT)


 * The article says it is a "nature reserve". If it is, I assume it is actually part of a larger area with a name that is not just the river? If it does indeed sit in a nature reserve, we could create a page for the reserve and redirect to it. (WT-en) ChubbyWimbus 16:05, 11 June 2010 (EDT)

William C. O'Neill Bike Path
Only a 5.6-mile bike path mostly contained in South Kingston. I cannot imagine an itinerary article for something that takes less than half an hour to traverse.

Seoul districts
The following articles from Seoul districts have been created, but Seoul does not yet have a district structure. I do think it'll need them eventually, but for now I'd suggest to delete them:


 * Seoul/Gangnam-gu
 * Seoul/Gwangjin-gu
 * Seoul/Jung-gu
 * Seoul/Songpa-gu
 * Seoul/Yeoui-do


 * Delete. --(WT-en) globe-trotter 10:54, 15 June 2010 (EDT)
 * Redirect. Is there a reason why they can't just be redirected to Seoul?  If they are actual districts then the Project:Deletion policy states that a redirect is preferable to deletion. -- (WT-en) Ryan &bull; (talk) &bull; 11:12, 15 June 2010 (EDT)
 * Yes, redirect is fine, my mistake. --(WT-en) globe-trotter 11:27, 15 June 2010 (EDT)
 * Redirect. Incidentally, I do hope someone who knows the city can put in some work to fill in more info and get it districtified at some point. The article even states that by some measures it is second in size only to Tokyo, so it sorely needs expansion and districtification. Visiting Seoul using only the guide we have now could really be somewhat of a pain in the ass. (WT-en) Texugo 19:45, 15 June 2010 (EDT)
 * Merge & redirect. Also, IWBN to document the current ad hoc district structure, as it might perhaps be useful as a starting point for a districtification. Seoul does badly need districting. --(WT-en) Peter Talk 22:25, 16 June 2010 (EDT)

Template:Days in month

 * Delete. This template determines number of days in a given month (30 days hath september, ...). Not sure how this would be used on Wikivoyage. It appears this was copied from wikipedia three years ago, but not currently linked to any pages. The template includes a call to "template doc", which is also a wikipedia function, but is undefined on wikivoyage. --(WT-en) Bill in STL 00:29, 24 August 2010 (EDT)

Strange: VFD template on several pages but not listed here
There are several pages which appear to be forgotten in a zone of vfd twilight. They have a vfd template but are not listed here for consideration. Either the vfd tag should be removed, or the page should be voted. I'm not recommending for or against, just looking to clean up the garbage. --(WT-en) Bill in STL 02:25, 28 August 2010 (EDT)

 * Image:VladBust.jpg -- vfd added Jan. 2008, still waiting.
 * LAN Airlines -- vfd archive Project:Votes for deletion/August 2010 says page was deleted Aug 19 but still there. Other pages deleted that day are gone.
 * User talk:(WT-en) Foxhollow -- vfd placed by user other than this one, touting (for their easter sunday dinner) on user page remains. vfd remains on page. All edits by this user were made same day, all other edits have been reverted.
 * User talk:(WT-en) Phoenixraven -- vfd was placed by user other than this one. Last contribution in 2008. vfd remains on page.
 * User:(WT-en) Kleinzach/Lab -- it appears user meant to request removal of their own page. User's edits on other pages show that user left the site in 2007 in an "entertaining" way.

Template:Tag

 * Delete. The template tag automatically creates categories for each tagged article. According to the discussion pages, tags was a feature which Evan proposed but was never completed, so does not provide any real functionality beyond creating undesired categories. So it causes a problem while doing no good.

The template currently appears on only ten pages (Special:Whatlinkshere/Template:Tag). However, multiple ocurrances on a page cause it to create even more categories. --(WT-en) Bill in STL 20:49, 22 August 2010 (EDT)

Literary travel

 * Delete. another stub travel topic going nowhere.  Difficult to see how this can every be more than a list of books - there are so many literary paths to follow, many of which may make good itineraries - but is there something separate to literary tourism that we can explore here?  If this one gets discovered by the walking tour brigade, they will have a field day.  --(WT-en) inas 20:14, 10 June 2010 (EDT)


 * Delete If we had enough literary guides, an index could be useful, but I don't think we have any and trying to make this page itself an itinerary is impossible. It's just too broad. (WT-en) ChubbyWimbus 00:40, 11 June 2010 (EDT)


 * Keep In a recent discussion, I was warranted that we effectively don't delete any minimally useful travel topics at all, especially if there's an active contributor patrolling new contributors. But we do? --(WT-en) DenisYurkin 03:37, 11 June 2010 (EDT)


 * There was discussion and a recent policy change on deletion specific to itineraries here . As far as "active contributor patrolling new contributors", I think it's safe to say we've given the creator of this article plenty of time to develop it. It's been over 2 years and the only change that has been made to the article was a capitalization update, so I don't think anyone is being bullied by deleting this. Also, it's extremely broad. If someone created a Little House on the Prairie itinerary, I could envision it becoming something. There are many sites related to the books and author however, "literary travel" as a single topic includes every book ever written, which cannot possibly make a sensible itinerary. (WT-en) ChubbyWimbus 04:32, 11 June 2010 (EDT)


 * (WT-en) DenisYurkin - are you arguing there is some policy reason to keep this? I don't see that in the discussion you pointed to.  If you think the article can be usefully expanded, then explain why, and we can keep it.  If it can't be usefully expanded it should go.  --(WT-en) inas 23:56, 11 June 2010 (EDT)


 * Not a policy, but a status-quo described under the link which I read as "we are very conservative in deleting travel topics":
 * There have been very few travel topics (or other articles) deleted - even the ones that are obviously complete and absolute rubbish we debate endlessly in vfd. If there has been a travel topic deleted that someone expressed an interest in curating, I must have missed it.
 * I believe that much more books exist that each makes it an interesting undertaking to travel on its key places mentioned. And listing such things is absolutely valid "alternative way of seeing travel". --(WT-en) DenisYurkin 15:59, 13 June 2010 (EDT)


 * I'm not sure there is much to say about this in terms of subtopics, like "how to prepare for literary travel", but if we keep this, I think we should give it a little more structure than those random examples that we don't even have articles about. I agree that it's a valid type of travel, but what do we have to put there? Looking through our itineraries, Literary London and maybe Narrow Road to the Deep North would be valid entries. We could probably add Momotaro if folktales count as literary travel... What do we think we want from this article? Where do you see it going? (WT-en) ChubbyWimbus 18:15, 13 June 2010 (EDT)


 * Even merely listing books which are worth creating itineraries would be a value-adding article. Per se it can give an idea on where to go next--there is some percentage of trips that start as a result of reading a good book with action taking place in the region (i.e. sometimes a book come first, and a region comes from that, not only vice versa). And of course it should link to all existing literary-centric itineraries like those you mentioned. Do we really need general sections like "how to prepare" for the article to become worth keeping? --(WT-en) DenisYurkin 16:37, 5 July 2010 (EDT)


 * On the trail of Marco Polo is based on a book. Are there others? I'd imagine Dracula is a tourist draw in Transylvania. (WT-en) Pashley 08:31, 29 August 2010 (EDT)


 * There is currently no consensus to keep this article. Any further comment would be appreciated. -- (WT-en) Ryan &bull; (talk) &bull; 14:30, 4 September 2010 (EDT)


 * Weak keep. We seem to have come to a decision to not apply the "outline for a year" criteria to travel topics (although I'm not exactly sure why—maybe we should revisit this). This article has not developed despite having been around for quite some time, and it doesn't seem that anyone has a clear idea of how it could in a productive manner. I'd lean delete, but I cannot see a deletion rationale per current policy. --(WT-en) Peter Talk 16:34, 4 September 2010 (EDT)


 * I've continued the discussion at Project:Deletion policy. -- (WT-en) Ryan &bull; (talk) &bull; 17:03, 4 September 2010 (EDT)

Lake Titicaca

 * Redirect. Is this an attraction or a region?  I think it is essentially an attraction, and should redirected.  However, it may be a region of islands, in which case we should probably rename it to Lake Titicaca Islands to avoid possible confusion.  I understand this is a bit of an unorthodox vfd, but I know there are views on what to do with these sorts of articles, so I think this makes a better place than the article talk page.  --(WT-en) inas 21:35, 10 June 2010 (EDT)

IMO, it's a valid region article, although the article needs the rest of the section headers. Since there is no clear deletion rationale here, I don't think a vfd is appropriate. The vfd page is a magnet for controversy & barn burners, as it is the only page where we do not follow Project:Consensus strictly. Accordingly, I think this discussion would be better suited to the article's talk page. If we can't figure out what to do with bodies of water as regions, that's something that will need to be resolved via policy discussion and consensus before we can safely use the vfd process. --(WT-en) Peter Talk 13:21, 11 June 2010 (EDT)


 * There seems to be enough islands in the Lake to make it a reasonable region article. I prefer the current title over Lake Titicaca Islands, but if it needs to be moved, it's not a big deal. (WT-en) ChubbyWimbus 16:02, 11 June 2010 (EDT)


 * We have a clear policy on bodies of water. The first line of our policy states We don't write destination guide articles about bodies of water.  This is a destination guide about a body of water.   I understand this issue is contentions, but it really is down to anyone who thinks we should have destination guides about bodies of water, to build the consensus to change it.  There is a clear deletion rationale for an article about a body of water, like this one is.  However, in line with our deletion policy, articles about major attractions should be redirected.
 * I accept that a valid region guide may one day be created for this region, and I wouldn't object to that. Right now we are dealing with an article that is not a region, but rather about an attraction, and the attraction information should be moved, and the article redirected.  --(WT-en) inas 19:35, 11 June 2010 (EDT)


 * And following that line is Some land regions are named after bodies of water. These articles aren't about those bodies of water, and this style guideline does not apply to them. For example, the Lake Tahoe region in California is named after the lake there, but it is about the towns, national parks, and ski resorts that ring the lake. We should have a guide to Lake Titicaca, and it should of course focus on the towns and relevant islands, rather than the water itself. The fact that the article is currently a stub is not a deletion rationale, and how to fix it up is a question for the talk page. A merge & redirect doesn't make sense—would you copy the information about the "attraction" to each and every town on the lake?


 * There is contention about the bodies of water policy, what it means, and how to apply it, and the vfd page is a bad place to hash it out. --(WT-en) Peter Talk 23:34, 11 June 2010 (EDT)


 * I've no intention of arguing the ins and outs of the bodies of water policy here.
 * This article is about an attraction, and like any other attraction it should be merged and redirected. We do this for every other attraction - even ones which can be reached from several places. The author of the text surely had no intention of creating an article about a region.  If you want to make this article about something else, a region, or whatever - then by all means go ahead, however in general I would argue for a more methodological approach to regioning, rather than taking attraction articles and applying a region template to them. --(WT-en) inas 23:50, 11 June 2010 (EDT)


 * There are also a number of towns such as Puno and Copacabana in the lake region. The lake spans the border of Bolivia and Peru, half in each. This seems to be analogous to the Great Lakes region, which has a regional article, though the Great Lakes has been expanded beyond a stub. The Lake Titicaca region seems to have three natural subregions: Islands, Bolivian Coast, and Peruvian Coast. Each of those subregions breaks down into multiple towns or islands, and has things to see and do. (WT-en) Bill in STL 18:19, 22 July 2010 (EDT)


 * Keep, but turn it into a region article. (WT-en) Pashley 08:32, 29 August 2010 (EDT)


 * Current consensus seems to be to keep this article as a region. Any further comment? -- (WT-en) Ryan &bull; (talk) &bull; 14:36, 4 September 2010 (EDT)

Image:UA_Mykolayiv_map.png

 * Delete. Perhaps an attempt with good will but this is a thoroughly useless "map". Plus, it has no source or license info other than a claim that it's "Donated by City Counsil (sic)". – (WT-en) Vidimian 12:52, 23 July 2010 (EDT)
 * I'm reluctant to delete something that's in active use, but then again, maybe it would inspire someone to make a better map. (WT-en) LtPowers 16:13, 23 July 2010 (EDT)
 * Any further comment? While a poor map is generally better than no map, this is of such poor quality that I'd agree with Vidimian it isn't worth keeping around. -- (WT-en) Ryan &bull; (talk) &bull; 14:42, 4 September 2010 (EDT)

Template:HasTopic

 * Delete. This template was devised by Evan to provide distinct functionality, but never progressed beyond an exact duplication of Template:Related. It simply puts a page into the "related pages" box on the left of the page. It was placed on two pages for testing, but could be replaced with Related on those pages. Removing the template will reduce confusion among our valid templates. The discussion of its creation is on Project:Related articles. --(WT-en) Bill in STL 05:24, 24 August 2010 (EDT)
 * Redirect to Template:Related. There is semantic value in using this template over Template:Related even if the functionality is the same.  This applies to the other two templates as well.  (WT-en) LtPowers 14:24, 24 August 2010 (EDT)

From abuja nigeria to toronto avoiding the US
Possibly justified, but this is just a rant, (WT-en) Shep 15:31, 28 August 2010 (EDT)


 * Delete I would suggest a merge (after rewording) into the Nigeria article in the "Get out" section as a more general (not Canada-specific) warning for Nigerians not traveling to the U.S. to avoid it altogether, but I don't think the "Get out" section is supposed to be there. (WT-en) ChubbyWimbus 16:48, 28 August 2010 (EDT)


 * Delete. Too fine-grained and perhaps a slippery slope. Anything that could be merged from this "article" is already said in Avoiding a transit of the United States. Perhaps adding a sentence essentially saying "head to Europe first if you are going to a non-US North American country" to Avoiding a transit of the United States is sufficient to cover the idea behind this essay of what seems like an experience. – (WT-en) Vidimian 19:24, 28 August 2010 (EDT)

Euro 2008

 * DELETE. Event was finished two years ago. The official tournament website is no longer active. (WT-en) Bill in STL 21:32, 3 August 2010 (EDT)
 * Hmm. There's a few more of these around (eg. Expo 2005).  Instead of deleting them outright, I'd prefer to maybe tag them with "archive" and protect them...?  If nothing else, they're useful templates for future events. (WT-en) Jpatokal 23:14, 3 August 2010 (EDT)
 * Keep, for posterity if nothing else. I'm okay with tagging them as historical.  (WT-en) LtPowers 08:00, 4 August 2010 (EDT)
 * Delete I admit there is some nostalgia with those but the most of the article deals with ticket prices, etc. The information on general sights and transportation is still available in the regular regional articles. I don't see any use for a traveler nowadays?! --(WT-en) Sebindi 10:47, 6 August 2010 (EDT)
 * Keep. I like Jani's idea of keeping these around with an "archive" tag, similar to what we do with the Project:Joke articles.  They may be useful as templates, and it seems a shame to throw away articles that people put a lot of work into. -- (WT-en) Ryan &bull; (talk) &bull; 12:35, 6 August 2010 (EDT)
 * Keep per Jani. --(WT-en) Peter Talk 15:47, 6 August 2010 (EDT)
 * Keep but label them. I started this one. My reason to delete was that old event articles which appear to be current makes the site look outdated. The list of article with old dates in name include: Expo 2005, Euro 2008, Rugby World Cup 2007, Vancouver 2010, World Cup 2006, World Cup 2010. We should do the same thing with all of them, whatever the decision. The 2008 Olympics has already been merged to Beijing. The Expo 2005 has a nice disclaimer box showing we really know it is not a future event, even if the text says "event will open ..." Adding a similar box to all these would mark them as historic articles if people run into them. Or a generic template would make them easy to maintain. Future articles for same treatment include Expo 2010 (after Oct 31), London 2012 in a couple of years.(WT-en) Bill in STL 21:39, 6 August 2010 (EDT)

Afghanistani Persian phrasebook

 * Redirect?. This article text simply says that it should not exist. Redirect to Persian phrasebook, which already includes Afghanistan. (WT-en) Bill in STL 06:10, 9 August 2010 (EDT)

 * Right. I'm therefore happy to see it deleted. (WT-en) Pashley 09:42, 9 August 2010 (EDT)
 * Redirect to Dari phrasebook. Afghanistani is the clumsy way of referring to something that is of or pertaining to the nation but not necessarily Pashtuns or Pashto. But even if it were just a misspelling, redirecting would still be preferable, albeit trivial. --(WT-en) Peter Talk 20:35, 10 August 2010 (EDT)

Project:Contributor research links

 * Delete. This page is a relic from the early days of Wikivoyage that seems to have outlived its usefulness, and it looks unlikely that it will become anything more than a mass of external links if we keep it around.  At this point Wikivoyage has enough content that we typically prefer first-hand knowledge, so referring people to the NY Times, Open Directory, or someone's personal travel blog to mine content seems both unnecessary and unhelpful.  If people do want to keep this page then some very clear guidelines would need to be set up to prevent it from simply becoming a dumping ground for any travel-related link that someone wants to promote. -- (WT-en) Ryan &bull; (talk) &bull; 13:03, 19 August 2010 (EDT)


 * Delete. I'm all for deleting collections of external links, as such pages are pretty clearly in conflict with our goal of not being a web directory. --(WT-en) Peter Talk 13:21, 19 August 2010 (EDT)


 * Abstain. In my someday-maybe list, I have a (WT-en) Researcher Toolbox article which is somewhat related. However, it has next to nothing to do with keeping the content of the above article. Still however, I believe our current practice is that destination-specific "sources to research" should be sticked to Talk: page of a respective destination (at least I always did that way). --(WT-en) DenisYurkin 16:41, 19 August 2010 (EDT)


 * Keep. Pick up a travel guide and browse through it, even in the most thorough guides you'll find references to websites or other books. What harm is this doing? Read the non-goal again:
 * "Wikivoyage articles can and should have links to external resources about destinations, itineraries, travel-oriented companies, and other travel-related Web sites. However, it's not a goal to collect all links about any destination. External links should support and complement the content of articles; they're not a goal in and of themselves."
 * This doesn't expressly prohibit external links for a destination, just that they're not a goal to achieve. This collection of links, especially with some expansion, can be a useful reference for travel research and those of us just browsing the web to satisfy some wanderlust. I even, at one point, tried to start such a collection of resources on my own page here which I'll finish when I have time. If a collection like this was on a destination page, then I'd agree with deleting. On it's own, however, it can be very useful and doesn't, in my opinion, distract us from our goals. I do agree that there needs to be some guidelines set up specifically for this page, but that shouldn't be too hard. (WT-en) AHeneen 02:19, 20 August 2010 (EDT)


 * Since this nomination hasn't passed the "consensus to keep" threshold (2 delete, one abstain, one keep), if there is strong feeling that it should be kept I'd suggest proposing some guidelines on Project:Contributor research links and seeing if there is consensus to be reached about what constitutes a "contributor research link". As it is now the page is of little use, and I remain in favor of deleting it to avoid attracting spammy contributions. -- (WT-en) Ryan &bull; (talk) &bull; 16:39, 2 September 2010 (EDT)

 * Keep, but turn into an itinerary, as it clearly falls afoul of our content organization policy on bodies of water. I don't see any way that this information could be usefully merged into a country article. If it never develops, then we could delete it under the "outline for a year" criterion for itineraries. --(WT-en) Peter Talk 16:36, 4 September 2010 (EDT)

 * Delete. Orphaned image of a beach hotel interior.  We typically discourage promotional images of this sort. Duplicate of Image:Acquamarina Rasqui Island Chalet.JPG. -- (WT-en) Ryan &bull; (talk) &bull; 21:11, 6 September 2010 (EDT)
 * Blanket delete of this and the above images. Begone, unwanted promo shots!  — (WT-en) D. Guillaime 17:34, 18 September 2010 (EDT)

Interstate 55

 * Moved here from a separate nomination in order to allow commenting on this article individually


 * My inclination is delete, but I thought it prudent to leave this one open for discussion here. --(WT-en) Peter Talk 17:50, 28 August 2010 (EDT)
 * Delete. We've got a few interstate articles, but this is completely empty so it is probably best to treat it as a stub itinerary and delete it due to lack of attention. -- (WT-en) Ryan &bull; (talk) &bull; 01:29, 10 September 2010 (EDT)
 * Delete - No one says "I'm going to travel I-55". (WT-en) Texugo 10:18, 16 September 2010 (EDT)

Result: Deleted. -- (WT-en) Ryan &bull; (talk) &bull; 21:39, 20 September 2010 (EDT)

Bondla Wildlife Sanctuary

 * Merge and Delete, as this is an attraction. --(WT-en) inas 23:22, 6 June 2010 (EDT)
 * Merge and Redirect, per Project:Deletion policy: "Major attractions and geographical areas can and should be redirected" (WT-en) LtPowers 08:58, 7 June 2010 (EDT)
 * Merge and Redirect per LtPowers, unless its not a major attraction, in which case we should delete --(WT-en) Stefan (sertmann) talk 17:58, 8 June 2010 (EDT)
 * I interpret the major attraction, being a high hurdle to get over, so we avoid creating redirects for every zoo and garden on the globe. How do we decide?  --(WT-en) inas 19:03, 8 June 2010 (EDT)
 * I disagree; redirects are cheap, so I don't see the hurdle as very significant. We should avoid creating redirects willy-nilly in any case, but as long as the page exists, and someone took the time to write what's really a decent article on the place, I see little harm in redirecting (especially after a merge, for attribution purposes if nothing else).  We should be cautious about minor commercial attractions, of course.  (WT-en) LtPowers 10:01, 9 June 2010 (EDT)
 * My concern isn't so much with the redirect, which as you say is cheap, but rather with redirecting a minor commercial attraction.  I don't doubt its commercial - it isn't a santuary or a national park, it is a zoo.  As to whether it qualifies as major, not sure, but the google hits are a couple of orders of magnitude below any other zoo I could think of.  I certainly see the major attraction hurdle high enough that most commercial attractions wouldn't qualify for redirects, only exceptional or widely known ones.    --(WT-en) inas 02:57, 11 June 2010 (EDT)
 * Well, it's what, 8 square kilometers? More than twice the size of Central Park.  =)  I would say it's certainly one of the major attractions in or around Goa, commercial or not.  (WT-en) LtPowers 09:40, 12 June 2010 (EDT)


 * Merge and redirect. --(WT-en) globe-trotter 11:20, 9 June 2010 (EDT)
 * This nomination is three months old, but in trying to resolve it I'm unsure what people want it merged with - Goa? Any clarification would be appreciated. -- (WT-en) Ryan &bull; (talk) &bull; 14:33, 4 September 2010 (EDT)


 * Keep. I hadn't looked at this before, but what is the deletion rationale here? Simply asserting it is an "attraction"? Or asserting that it is a "zoo" not a "park"? The article states that you can sleep here, there is a restaurant, and it's actually a well developed Other Destination article of clear value to the traveler. If people think this information would be more useful if merged with another article, that's a question of content organization that would belong on the talk page, not vfd, but it anyway does not appear that anyone has a concrete idea of how to improve the organization. --(WT-en) Peter Talk 16:28, 4 September 2010 (EDT)
 * I'm not sure; maybe I didn't look closely enough at the article to see that there were accommodations there. I'm fine with keeping; maybe I just wanted to make sure it wasn't deleted without a redirect.  (WT-en) LtPowers 21:03, 4 September 2010 (EDT)


 * So is this a "keep" now? My sense of the discussion is that "keep" is the correct resolution, but if anyone feels differently please comment. -- (WT-en) Ryan &bull; (talk) &bull; 20:09, 19 September 2010 (EDT)

Result: Kept. -- (WT-en) Ryan &bull; (talk) &bull; 19:43, 23 September 2010 (EDT)

Air zimbabwe

 * Delete. I don't see the usefulness of this article or it going anywhere. --(WT-en) globe-trotter 19:48, 27 August 2010 (EDT)


 * Comment. Maybe it's time to create Airlines article to help people focus their efforts if they are interested in writing on airlines? See Talk:Travel topics--anyone willing to join the effort? --(WT-en) DenisYurkin 19:51, 1 September 2010 (EDT)


 * Delete Pages for Airlines are not really useful and i think it is also quite a marketing tool. I would like to discourage that as we already have to much ads in. (WT-en) jan 09:34, 23 September 2010 (EDT)


 * Delete Apart from anything else, the name is wrong. Zimbabwe gets a capital Z. The quality of the contents matches the quality of the title too. —The preceding comment was added by (WT-en) Pbsouthwood (talk • contribs)

Result: Deleted. -- (WT-en) Ryan &bull; (talk) &bull; 19:48, 23 September 2010 (EDT)

Category:Phrasebooks

 * Delete. This category is out of policy. The existence of the category page invites misuse. Removing the category page at least leaves the categories as red-links when used. (WT-en) Bill in STL 13:17, 11 August 2010 (EDT)
 * Keep, I like it. =)  Our Category policy is in the process of being addressed, if slowly, and I think this might be one that eventually is sanctioned by the updated policy.  (WT-en) LtPowers 18:40, 11 August 2010 (EDT)
 * Keep (for now). Let's discuss this one as it may fit nicely in the new category structure being developed.  If consensus is to not use it then it can be removed. -- (WT-en) Ryan &bull; (talk) &bull; 13:52, 10 September 2010 (EDT)
 * &rarr; Talk:List of phrasebooks. -- (WT-en) Ryan &bull; (talk) &bull; 20:06, 23 September 2010 (EDT)

Result: Kept. -- (WT-en) Ryan &bull; (talk) &bull; 01:33, 30 September 2010 (EDT)

Rarang

 * Delete content and redirect. The talk page indicates that this is a Hindi phrasebook. I looked at a few entries and they appear to be included on the Hindi page, but I don't know the language to validate the claim. It appears this is the name of a town, not a language. (WT-en) Bill in STL 20:38, 15 August 2010 (EDT)


 * Redirect to Sarahan (Rarang looks to be an obscure location next door). --(WT-en) Peter Talk 22:16, 15 August 2010 (EDT)

Result: Redirected to Sarahan. -- (WT-en) Ryan &bull; (talk) &bull; 01:44, 30 September 2010 (EDT)

Shahmukhi

 * Delete. This page appears to have been copied from iguide.travel site, complete even to the "you are here:home". No indication the anonymous user has the rights to it. Even without the concern about rights, without a description of how to pronounce or use these characters, just the alphabet does not seem useful for the traveller. The page was added about seven weeks ago, and user has not made any edits to wikivoyage since that date, so I don't think he's coming back to turn this into something legal. --(WT-en) Bill in STL 02:43, 25 August 2010 (EDT)
 * iguide gets their information from us, not the other way around. (Although I note they still claim materials are available under CC by-sa 1.0 instead of 3.0.)  This content very well may have come from somewhere, and it very well may be useless to us, but it's iguide got it from us.  (WT-en) LtPowers 10:11, 25 August 2010 (EDT)


 * Merge and redirect to Punjabi phrasebook. Pronunciation information is necessary, but no need to delete simply because it is incomplete, I'd say. --(WT-en) Peter Talk 13:14, 25 August 2010 (EDT)

Result: Merge tag added for Punjabi phrasebook. -- (WT-en) Ryan &bull; (talk) &bull; 23:46, 30 September 2010 (EDT)

Gurmukhi

 * Delete. Without a description of how to pronounce or use these characters, just the alphabet does not seem useful for the traveller. It appears that these tables were copied from wikipedia (same colors, sequence, headers). The page was added about seven weeks ago, and user has not made any edits to wikivoyage since that date, so I don't think he's coming back to turn this into something more. --(WT-en) Bill in STL 02:43, 25 August 2010 (EDT)

Template:FIFA2010Host

 * Delete. Is it time to remove this logo, which is defined as temporary? It is on ten city pages. Policy says "These templates should be deleted and removed from here once the event has passed." --(WT-en) Bill in STL 00:49, 26 August 2010 (EDT)
 * In general, yes, although I'd suggest keeping at least one around to serve as an example for future events. (WT-en) LtPowers 08:17, 26 August 2010 (EDT)
