Your draft article, Draft:Triple Seven (album)
[edit]
Hello, Bait30. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or draft page you started, "Triple Seven".
In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material, the draft has been deleted. When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.
Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz Read! Talk! 01:46, 30 July 2025 (UTC)

Speedy deletion declined: User:DougheGojiraMan/sandbox
[edit]Hello Bait30. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of User:DougheGojiraMan/sandbox, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: Editor has significant contributions so not elegible for U5. Use WP:MFD. Thank you. Whpq (talk) 02:32, 11 September 2025 (UTC)
- Note - same rationale for the other pages from this user that you nominated. I did not want to flood your page with notifications. They all have the same problem so you could/should do a bundled nomination. If you need help with a bundled nomination, let me know. -- Whpq (talk) 02:36, 11 September 2025 (UTC)
- Whpq, the bundling instructions were really confusing. I think I did it, but would appreciate if you take a look to make sure it's correct. Bait30 Talk 2 me pls? 21:49, 11 September 2025 (UTC)
- Okay how about we just stop with the automatic posting of deletion tags, and just talk it out civilly? DougheGojiraMan (talk) 21:55, 11 September 2025 (UTC)
- The deletion tags were not "automatic". They have been manually added. If you want to talk it out, you need to make your case at the deletion discussion. -- Whpq (talk) 00:07, 12 September 2025 (UTC)
- Yes, the bundling instructions are not the clearest, but you managed to get it done. It looks to be bundled properly. -- Whpq (talk) 00:06, 12 September 2025 (UTC)
- I agree that the bundling instructions are sub-optimal. It looks like a correctly done bundle (and I have more bundling experience than I would like to have had). Robert McClenon (talk) 04:28, 12 September 2025 (UTC)
