Computer Fizz has nominated this page for deletion for the reason: copied-and-pasted part of an article from enwiki just to be a stub Computer Fizz (talk) 17:46, 14 September 2017 (UTC)

Please discuss this request below, but keep in mind that you shouldn't vote on everything and that there may be options other than "keep" or "delete", such as merging.

Discussion[change]

  • Comment. It's perfectly fine to create a stub based on an enwiki article. It needs to be simplified appropriately, though, which I think this has not been. We have asked the creator to do more content work. If their early efforts toward that are not what they need to be, maybe we can help them understand why and try to work with them before deleting, especially when so little work would be needed, as with this one. --Auntof6 (talk) 18:02, 14 September 2017 (UTC)
  • Keep - I think it is simplified to meet a minimum standard.
What word or phrase, might I have overlooked, when it comes to complexity? Sju hav (talk) 18:12, 14 September 2017 (UTC)
I don't want to have that discussion on this page. I'll answer on your talk page later. --Auntof6 (talk) 18:54, 14 September 2017 (UTC)
  • Comment - One thing I did not think through when making this rfd is that the author is currently questionable for a community ban. I think we should wait for that to finish then continue this as that may affect some desicions. Computer Fizz (talk) 18:49, 14 September 2017 (UTC)
That shouldn't affect the decision on whether to keep this article. --Auntof6 (talk) 18:54, 14 September 2017 (UTC)
  • Keep the article in question is a legitimate stub; there still are a few red-links, but neither being a stub, nor red-links are reason for deletion. The status of the editors who created/changed the article are also no reason for deltion. --Eptalon (talk) 09:05, 15 September 2017 (UTC)
  • Keep - Notable topic. I've simplified some and added content.--Tbennert (talk) 16:37, 15 September 2017 (UTC)
