Stephen Charles Mott[edit]

Just for future reference, if you sequester an article into draftspace, as you did at Draft:Stephen Charles Mott, then you need to also either remove or disable the category declarations on it, because draftspace pages can't be filed in articlespace categories per WP:DRAFTNOCAT. There's no policy mandating whether you disable or remove, so you're free to do either one — but if you opt to disable the categories, you can do it by placing a colon before the word "Category" in each category link or by wrapping all of the categories inside the {{Draft categories}} template. Thanks. Bearcat (talk) 16:40, 27 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for this wonderful piece of information, I felt the need to go through several special guideline and policy pages. Still, I think it will take time before I get the know-how of uploading and moving pages on Wikipedia. Naomikrate (talk) 05:33, 3 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Drafting articles[edit]

Rather than move long time articles into draft space you should tag them for the problems. You should also send them to WP:AfD. CambridgeBayWeather, Uqaqtuq (talk), Huliva 18:59, 27 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I will remember that. How long would you suggest an article has to remain on Wikipedia to be considered a "long-time articles"? Naomikrate (talk) 05:32, 3 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Per Wikipedia:Village pump (policy), articles more than 90 days old should not be draftified. There was a policy proposal for 30 days, but that did not reach consensus. David notMD (talk) 09:11, 3 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Nick Velasquez[edit]

Hello Naomikrate,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Nick Velasquez for deletion, because it's a redirect from an article title to a namespace that's not for articles.

If you don't want Nick Velasquez to be deleted, you can contest this deletion, but don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Thanks!
