RuneScape Clans Wiki:Speedy deletion policy

The speedy deletion policy dictates what should and shouldn't be quickly deleted from this wiki.

Good cases

 * A page which contains information that has very little chances of becoming a real page. For example, a page with just "wow i love runescape so much don't you? lol" isn't helping anyone. Pages like this will be deleted.


 * User pages that have been created by an I.P., or possess content that blatantly violates one of RuneScape Wiki's policies (i.e. offensive language, scamming advice). Older user pages can be deleted only if the user requests it. It is impossible to delete an account, though the user page can be deleted.


 * Advertising and spam. Posting random websites or things like "Google is awful; try Brand X Search Engine free for 10 days!" aren't contributing anything to the wiki.


 * Pages that are filled with nonsense. For example, pages with titles such as "dahoshagohfoug" or content like "dafjkl;afjlstupiddkaf;jdsk" have no point in being on this Wiki.


 * Pages that are riddled with copyright violations. Taking images, lines of text, or entire pages from a website is not permitted. This criterion may or may not apply to www.runescape.com, depending on the circumstances.


 * Useless redirects. For example, one like #REDIRECT: That one guy in RUneScape isn't helping anyone.


 * Useless or duplicated categories, like a "poop" category.


 * Useless or duplicated templates, like a "poop" template.


 * Pages in another language. This is an English Wiki, no other languages are allowed. If you wish to make an article in another language, please contribute the article to one of our sister language Wikis.

Bad cases

 * Stubs. Stubs, no matter how small, could one day become a very long article.


 * A page that requires a cleanup. These pages are just in need of attention, they do not need to be deleted.


 * Vandalism. Blanking pages, adding unneeded images, and inserting random words don't help the wiki at all. These cases can be reverted, unless a page was created that had an obscene or random title.


 * A page that has existed for a long period of time and has received many edits. This should instead be nominated for deletion.
