Wikipedia:List of Monuments in Nepal

Pages (apparently) associated with WP:Wiki Loves Monuments and WP:Wiki Loves Earth. Some editors have pointed that these pages do not belong in project namespace, especially as they have not even been filed as subpages. None of them have been edited in at least the last one month, and probably for a much greater period. Neutral nomination.

• Keep. Good plan. Move to subpages of a willing WikiProject. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 11:07, 15 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
• Move preferably to article space if the lists are deemed as reliably sourced. Alternatively to a joint taskforce of WP:Nepal and Historic Sites. Agathoclea (talk) 11:58, 15 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Having taken about an hour to view all of these pages, I can definitively state that none of them are suitable for the mainspace in their current forms.— Godsy ^(TALK_CONT) 11:24, 16 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
• Move to Draft and/or main namespace without leaving a redirect. jni ^(delete)_{...just not interested} 18:39, 15 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment - I applied a miscellany for deletion discussion notification template to all of the pages nominated here.— Godsy ^(TALK_CONT) 11:24, 16 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
• Move to a Wikiperoject if they are willing to take it on, otherwise, draft space. -- Whpq (talk) 15:43, 16 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep. We can keep these pages like this one. - Nirmal Dulal (talk) 06:01, 18 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Sofixit? Judging from the date when these lists were created (beginning of September 2014) these pages were just put somewhere so that Wiki Loves Monuments 2014 could also be run in Nepal. Wiki Loves Monuments 2014 started 1 September 2014 so was already running when these lists got created. Commons:Category:Images from Wiki Loves Monuments 2014 in Nepal contains 1000+ files so that seems to have been just in time. It also ran in 2015 (1500 files) and 2016 (8000+ files, but looks like nobody bothered to expand them and move them to the main namespace. The lists are indexed in the monuments database some statistics and generally these lists exist in main namespace on most Wikipedia's. Probably best example here is the NRHP (random example page). These lists belong in the main namespace, but in the current state (just a list without anything else) these lists won't last long. So I would propose that the people who care and are willing to help out, to clean up the pages one by one and move them to the main namespace. While you're add it, you might as well add some photos from Wikipedia:WikiProject Historic sites/Unused images of Cultural heritage monuments in Nepal so it all looks better. The current way it's split up gives some very short lists. Probably good to merge some on the province level. Multichill (talk) 23:48, 19 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
• I honestly don't understand what exactly the problem is. Could someone enlighten me? If the problem is not clear, it's also quite hard to address. I do support the comment of Multichill, it's much more constructive to try and address the issue. Whatever it may be. effeietsanders 21:20, 21 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

    • @Godsy: That response is not helping a whole lot :) You're restating your conclusion (they're not appropriate/ready/whatever) but are not very explicit about the actual problems the pages have. I mean, I could guess, and so could others - but it would be helpful to have that clearer. The focus could that way be on how to improve the pages, rather than whether they should be deleted. effeietsanders 11:28, 22 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Project Space ("WP:") is for documents about the project, not for content, even draft content.
    WP:WikiProjects are an exception, but even there, there is a recent trend to move their drafts to draftspace. It's a cultural thing, how things are done, but not inherently important. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 11:41, 22 December 2016 (UTC)[reply
