The '''deletion process''' is the [[Wikipedia:Processes|Wikipedia process]] involved in recording and executing the community's decisions to delete or keep a page. In general, administrators are responsible for closing discussions about deletions, but in practice, the various deletion discussions tend to be badly backlogged, and editors in good standing who have not been made administrators ''may'' close deletion discussions under conditions described under [[Wikipedia:Deletion process#Non-administrators closing discussions|non-administrators closing discussions]]. Closing decisions are subject to [[Wikipedia:Deletion review|review]] and, if necessary, may be reopened by any administrator. If this happens, take it only as a sign that the decision may not have been as obvious as you may have thought.
==নিবন্ধ অপসারণের প্রক্রিয়া==

People should not close discussions in which they have been involved. Doing so creates an appearance of conflict of interest, and may lead to the closure of the debate being challenged as unfair.

==Speedy deletion==
# Decide whether the page meets one or more of the [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion|criteria for speedy deletion]].
# Delete the page with a good comment in the [[Help:Edit summary|reason for deletion]] field. (This will be automatically recorded in the [[Special:Log/delete|Deletion log]].)
#* Citing the specific [[WP:CSD|criteria for speedy deletion]] in the comment is strongly recommended.
#* It may sometimes be helpful to quote page content in the reason for deletion. But in the case of attack pages ([[WP:CSD#G10|CSD G10]]) please be careful not to quote (potentially libelous) negative comments, so that these do not appear in the log. Likewise, in the case of blatant copyright infringements ([[WP:CSD#G12|CSD G12]]) please do not quote the copyrighted text.

==Special situations==
Some deletion discussions require a few extra steps to close completely.

===Relisting discussions===
{{shortcut|WP:RELIST}}
The intent of the '''deletion process''' is to attempt to determine the [[WP:CON|consensus]] of whether an article should be deleted or not.

However, if at the end of the initial seven day period, an [[WP:XFD|XFD]] discussion has only one or two commenting editors (including the nominator), and/or if it seems to the closer to be lacking arguments based on policy, it may be appropriate for the closer to relist the discussion, with a goal of obtaining further sufficient discussion in order to determine consensus, and with the understanding that it may be subject to being closed once consensus can be determined, without necessarily waiting a further seven days.

That said, relisting a debate should not be a substitute for a no-consensus closure. If closer feels that there has been substantive debate, and disparate opinions supported by policy have been expressed, and it appears that consensus will not be achieved, a no-consensus close may be preferable.

If a debate has already been relisted once, the closer should consider carefully if a no-consensus close would be more appropriate than a second relisting. If further discussion is unlikely to bring consensus, then the discussion should simply be closed.

Note that some deletion discussions (such as for [[WP:CFD|categories]], [[WP:RFD|redirects]], and [[WP:IFD|images and media]]) can be closed as '''delete''', rather than relisted, if nobody other than the nominator comments.

When relisting a discussion, it should be '''removed from the log for its original date''' and moved to the current date's log where the discussion will continue.

===Transwiki===
If consensus indicates a [[m:Help:Transwiki|transwiki]] should take place, but you do not want to complete the transwiki process immediately:
#add a new entry to [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Old/Transwiki]].
#add the appropriate tag to the article
#*{{tl|Copy to Wiktionary}}
#*{{tl|Copy to Wikisource}}
#*{{tl|Copy to Wikiquote}}
#*{{tl|Copy to Wikibooks}}
#*{{tl|Copy to Wikibooks Cookbook}}
#*{{tl|Copy to Wikimedia Commons}}

===Untranscluded discussions===
Sometimes, AFD discussions become excessively long and are temporarily [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Maintenance|untranscluded]] from the day's AFD page. This is most often done through the creation of a <tt>/temp</tt> page for the AFD discussion. If you close one of these very large discussions:
# Edit the AFD day page to re-transclude the long discussion.
# Delete the <tt>/temp</tt> page.

==All others ==
* If a separate discussion page was created, follow the AFD procedures above.
* If no separate discussion page was created, please consider creating one. If you choose not to, at least copy the discussion onto the article's Talk page.

==<span id="NAC" />Non-administrators closing discussions==
{{shortcut|WP:DPR#NAC}}
{{seealso|Wikipedia:Non-admin closure}}
In general, administrators are responsible for closing discussions about deletions. However, at times the various deletion discussions become backlogged. Editors in good standing who have not been made administrators ''may'' close deletion discussions, with the following provisions:
* Deletion discussions must be decided in accordance with [[Wikipedia:Consensus|consensus]] and taking account of Wikipedia [[Wikipedia:Policies and guidelines|policies and guidelines]]. If you are not familiar with [[Wikipedia:Deletion policy|deletion policy]] or the workings of deletion discussions, it is best that you only close discussions with unambiguous results.
** Non-administrators should not close even unanimous "delete" decisions, as they lack the account feature to delete pages (that feature is only turned on for admins).
** Close calls and controversial or ambiguous decisions should be left to an administrator.
** In cases when an administrator has deleted a page and overlooks closing the discussion, the administrator's name and deletion summary should be included in the closing rationale.
* Closing discussions in which you have offered an opinion or for a page that you have edited heavily presents a conflict of interest and should be avoided. The sole exception is if you are closing your own withdrawn nomination as a [[Wikipedia:Speedy keep|speedy keep]] and all other viewpoints expressed were for keep as well.
Non-administrators closing deletion discussions are recommended to disclose their status in the closing decision. Decisions are subject to review and may be reopened by any administrator. If this happens, take it only as a sign that the decision was not as unambiguous as you thought.

The deletion process is the Wikipedia process involved in recording and executing the community's decisions to delete or keep a page. In general, administrators are responsible for closing discussions about deletions, but in practice, the various deletion discussions tend to be badly backlogged, and editors in good standing who have not been made administrators may close deletion discussions under conditions described under non-administrators closing discussions. Closing decisions are subject to review and, if necessary, may be reopened by any administrator. If this happens, take it only as a sign that the decision may not have been as obvious as you may have thought.

People should not close discussions in which they have been involved. Doing so creates an appearance of conflict of interest, and may lead to the closure of the debate being challenged as unfair.

Speedy deletion

  1. Decide whether the page meets one or more of the criteria for speedy deletion.
  2. Delete the page with a good comment in the reason for deletion field. (This will be automatically recorded in the Deletion log.)
    • Citing the specific criteria for speedy deletion in the comment is strongly recommended.
    • It may sometimes be helpful to quote page content in the reason for deletion. But in the case of attack pages (CSD G10) please be careful not to quote (potentially libelous) negative comments, so that these do not appear in the log. Likewise, in the case of blatant copyright infringements (CSD G12) please do not quote the copyrighted text.

প্রক্রিয়া

এএফডি সমাপ্তকরণ

To process an AFD debate listed on a day page containing debates old enough to be closed:

  • If it may take significant time to assess the debate and/or perform the closing edits, consider letting others know that you are in assessing the discussion by adding {{AfDh}} to the very top of the page and {{AfDb}} to the very bottom of the page. Alternatively, {{Closing}} can be added to the very top of the page.
  • Determine, using the guidelines set forth at Wikipedia:Deletion guidelines for administrators, if there is a consensus to delete the article, and if the associated talk or sub-pages should also be deleted.
  • নিম্নলিখিত কাজের দ্বারা অপসারণ আলোচনা বন্ধ করুন:
    • পাতা থেকে {{AfDh}}/{{AfDb}}/{{Closing}} ট্যাগ সরান, যদি সেগুলো আগে থেকেই থাকে।
    • নিচের কাজগুলো করুন:
{{subst:Afd top|'''ফলাফল'''}}. ~~~~ ← পৃষ্ঠার একেবারে শীর্ষে এই লাইন যোগ করুন, যথাযথ ফলাফল '''গাঢ়''' রঙে প্রদর্শীত হবে।
===[[শিরোলেখ]]=== ← এই লাইন খালি রাখুন
← {{এএফডি বন্ধ করার সময় এই টেমপ্লেটটি বাতিল করুন}} এই লাইন সরান।
আলোচনা ← আলোচনার বক্তব্য অপরিবর্তিত থাকে
{{subst:Afd bottom}} ← নিচের টেমপ্লেটটি যুক্ত করুন
  • If additional explanation is needed as to why you have closed a deletion discussion as a certain result, add additional comments immediately after '''ফলাফল'''. on the first line.
  • If the AfD has been relisted before, remove each appearance of [[Category:Relisted AfD debates|{{SUBPAGENAME}}]] in the discussion.
  • Save the page with an edit summary such as "Closing AfD, result was ..."

বন্ধ করার পর, এই পাতা এরকম দেখাবে:

Carrying out the AfD close

সিদ্ধান্তের উপর নির্ভর করে, নিম্নরূপ অগ্রসর:

অপসারণ:

  • নিবন্ধটি অপসারণ করুন, অপসারণের প্রস্তাবনা [[উইকিপিডিয়া:নিবন্ধ অপসারণের প্রস্তাবনা/নিবন্ধ]] পাতায় একটি লিঙ্ক যোগ করুন "অন্য/অতিরিক্ত কারণ:" বক্স।
    বর্তমান অপসারণের ইন্টারফেসে এই বক্স স্বয়ংক্রিয়ভাবে যুক্ত থাকে।
  • জি৮ দ্রুত অপসারণের মানদণ্ড অনুযায়ী নিবন্ধের আলাপ পাতা মুছে ফেলুন, নিম্নলিখিত লাইন যোগ কারার মাধ্যমে "অন্য/অতিরিক্ত কারণ:" বক্স:
    [[WP:CSD#G8|G8]]: ইতোমধ্যে অপসারিত বা অস্বিত্বহীন পাতার উপর নির্ভরশীল পাতা
    বর্তমান অপসারণ ইন্টারফেসের ড্রপ-ডাউন বক্সের নিচে "কারণ:" নির্বাচন করা যাবে।
  • সংযোগকারী পৃষ্ঠাসমূহ পাতায় যান, on the deleted article and delete any redirects that point to the deleted article, using speedy deletion criterion G8. Also, if the AfD has shown no current scope to have an article on the subject, edit articles to remove redlinks to the deleted page; use your discretion over whether to delete the text altogether, e.g. from lists. Likewise, remove links found on category and portal pages; links on user and talk pages can be ignored, as can some WikiProject pages.

রেখে দিন:

  • Click "edit" on the article page and copy the entire {{Old AfD multi}} template that is inside the AfD tag, then paste that entire template onto the article's talk page (normally below the WikiProject tags, if applicable), and then save using an edit summary such as "Adding {{Old AfD multi}}".
    • If the {{Old AfD multi}} is not present in the tag, then the AfD is likely a repeat nomination, and it will need to be manually added to the current {{Old AfD multi}} tag on the article's talk page. Please see Template:Old AfD multi/doc for instructions on how to format it. After adding the current AfD results to the template, save using an edit summary such as "Appending to {{Old AfD multi}}".
  • Remove the AfD tag from the article itself; that is, everything between (and including) <!-- Please do not remove ... to <!-- End of AfD message, feel free to edit beyond this point -->. Save using an edit summary such as "Removing AfD tag. Consensus was "keep"."
  • If the consensus was to keep and clean up, consider adding the {{Cleanup AfD}} tag on top of the article.

ঐক্যমত্য বিহীন:

  • উপরের রেখে দিন একই পদ্ধতি অনুসরণ করুন, তবে ফলাফল সারাংশে রেখে দিন কথার পরিবর্তে ঐক্যমত্য বিহীন লিখুন।

মনোনয়ন প্রত্যাহার:

  • উপরের রেখে দিন একই পদ্ধতি অনুসরণ করুন, তবে ফলাফল সারাংশে রেখে দিন কথার পরিবর্তে মনোনয়ন প্রত্যাহার লিখুন।

পুনর্নির্দেশ:

  • Make sure you specify on the AfD page where the article should be redirected to.
  • Follow the same procedures as in keep for adding the {{Old AfD multi}} tag to the article's talk page. Normally, WikiProject tags are also removed, unless they support a Redirect-Class, in which case those tags can be modified instead of removed.
  • Redirect the article to the target as consensus prescribes.

একত্রীকরণ:

  • Follow the same procedures as in keep for adding the {{Old AfD multi}} tag to the article's talk page. Normally, WikiProject tags are also removed, unless they support a Merge-Class, in which case those tags can be modified instead of removed.
  • On the AfD'd article's page, replace the AfD tag (by removing everything as prescribed in keep above) with the following:
    {{Afd-merge to|destination article|debate name|debate closure date}}
  • On the destination article's talk page, add the following (normally below the WikiProject tags):
    {{Afd-merge from|nominated article|debate name|debate closure date}}

Relisting AfDs

If insufficient discussion took place to determine a consensus or lack thereof, the AfD can be relisted by doing the following:

  • At the very bottom of the deletion discussion, add {{subst:relist}}
    If additional comments need to be made upon relisting, add {{subst:relist|Comments about the relist}} instead.
  • Go to the day the AfD was listed; this can be found by clicking What links here on the AfD page and then clicking the AfD log page (e.g. [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Log/<date>]]). On that AfD log page, comment out (using <!-- ... -->) the transclusion of the relisted deletion discussion. It should look like this:
    <!-- {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Article}} -->
Save that AfD log page with an edit summary such as "[[WP:RELIST|Relisting]] [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Article]]".
  • Go to WP:AFD/T, and add to the top of the list of AfDs the relisted AfD, adding <!--Relisted--> at the end. It should look like this:
    {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Article}}<!--Relisted-->
Save the WP:AFD/T page with an edit summary such as "[[WP:RELIST|Relisting]] [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Article]]".

এএফডি লগ পাতা বন্ধ করণ

Every day, the AfD log page (যেমন, উইকিপিডিয়া:নিবন্ধ অপসারণের প্রস্তাবনার সংগ্রহশালা) that is more than seven days old should be moved to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Old (currently, this is automatically done by User:Mathbot). With few exceptions (e.g., an AFD-nominated article that qualifies for Wikipedia:Speedy keep or deletion under WP:CSD), the decision to keep or delete a page is to be implemented only after this move has been performed.

If all deletion discussions on an AfD log page have been closed, then please go to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Old and remove that AfD log page (which Mathbot can do automatically by clicking here). Then, go to Wikipedia:Archived deletion discussions and paste that AfD log page at the top in the appropriate month (currently, this is also automatically done by Mathbot).

Special situations

Some deletion discussions require a few extra steps to close completely.

Relisting discussions

The intent of the deletion process is to attempt to determine the consensus of whether an article should be deleted or not.

However, if at the end of the initial seven day period, an XFD discussion has only one or two commenting editors (including the nominator), and/or if it seems to the closer to be lacking arguments based on policy, it may be appropriate for the closer to relist the discussion, with a goal of obtaining further sufficient discussion in order to determine consensus, and with the understanding that it may be subject to being closed once consensus can be determined, without necessarily waiting a further seven days.

That said, relisting a debate should not be a substitute for a no-consensus closure. If closer feels that there has been substantive debate, and disparate opinions supported by policy have been expressed, and it appears that consensus will not be achieved, a no-consensus close may be preferable.

If a debate has already been relisted once, the closer should consider carefully if a no-consensus close would be more appropriate than a second relisting. If further discussion is unlikely to bring consensus, then the discussion should simply be closed.

Note that some deletion discussions (such as for categories, redirects, and images and media) can be closed as delete, rather than relisted, if nobody other than the nominator comments.

When relisting a discussion, it should be removed from the log for its original date and moved to the current date's log where the discussion will continue.

Transwiki

If consensus indicates a transwiki should take place, but you do not want to complete the transwiki process immediately:

  1. add a new entry to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Old/Transwiki.
  2. add the appropriate tag to the article

Untranscluded discussions

Sometimes, AFD discussions become excessively long and are temporarily untranscluded from the day's AFD page. This is most often done through the creation of a /temp page for the AFD discussion. If you close one of these very large discussions:

  1. Edit the AFD day page to re-transclude the long discussion.
  2. Delete the /temp page.

All others

  • If a separate discussion page was created, follow the AFD procedures above.
  • If no separate discussion page was created, please consider creating one. If you choose not to, at least copy the discussion onto the article's Talk page.

Non-administrators closing discussions

In general, administrators are responsible for closing discussions about deletions. However, at times the various deletion discussions become backlogged. Editors in good standing who have not been made administrators may close deletion discussions, with the following provisions:

  • Deletion discussions must be decided in accordance with consensus and taking account of Wikipedia policies and guidelines. If you are not familiar with deletion policy or the workings of deletion discussions, it is best that you only close discussions with unambiguous results.
    • Non-administrators should not close even unanimous "delete" decisions, as they lack the account feature to delete pages (that feature is only turned on for admins).
    • Close calls and controversial or ambiguous decisions should be left to an administrator.
    • In cases when an administrator has deleted a page and overlooks closing the discussion, the administrator's name and deletion summary should be included in the closing rationale.
  • Closing discussions in which you have offered an opinion or for a page that you have edited heavily presents a conflict of interest and should be avoided. The sole exception is if you are closing your own withdrawn nomination as a speedy keep and all other viewpoints expressed were for keep as well.

Non-administrators closing deletion discussions are recommended to disclose their status in the closing decision. Decisions are subject to review and may be reopened by any administrator. If this happens, take it only as a sign that the decision was not as unambiguous as you thought.
