A tag has been placed on Erich Akt requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

Freeloading

There is a rule that articles in draft: space which have an {{AfC submission}} tag may be deleted if they have not been touched for more than six months. Unfortunately there is no rule for articles in that space without the tag but I think that the same rule should apply. Now you have a massive number of such articles. I have put in User:Mad7744/drafts a list of the 499 oldest of them.

Another view is that you could be considered to be

- 88.8% of your edits are in draft space.

I want to see a concerted move by you to either request the deletion of these drafts or improve them to article status and get them submitted for approval for mainspace. I note that they survived this recent discussion but If changes do not happen within the next few months, I shall propose a bulk deletion of your drafts.

Hello Mad7744, I have nominated this old draft for deletion. That's simply for housekeeping, as the identical article is already "live" in mainspace Erich Akt. Keeping such old drafts is confusing, and might distort edit histories, when content is created by other editors and copy/pasted without attribution. Just a quick manual info, as the automatic notification didn't work for this nomination for some reason. Best regards. GermanJoe (talk) 07:32, 14 July 2016 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Willy Albrecht

The article Willy Albrecht has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Subjects fails

WP:SOLDIER per article text: "No evidence of the award can be found in the German Federal Archives. Albrecht's case was never processed by the Association of Knight's Cross Recipients (AKCR). It is incomprehensible what evidence exists and who accepted him as a Knight's Cross recipient." The subject does not have a German wiki article. No significant coverage

in RS can be found.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be

deleted for any of several reasons

.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
