Sil (Doctor Who): Pokelego999 ( talk ) 02:53, 29 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Note:  This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Fictional elements , Science fiction and fantasy ,  and Television .  Pokelego999 ( talk ) 02:53, 29 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Redirect .  This may or may not be notable, but until this is shown in the article, a redirect (preserving history for someone to restore if reception/analysis can be added) seems reasonable.  -- Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus | reply here 04:03, 29 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Redirect to Vengeance on Varos .  There's a general problem with these Dr Who monster articles (cited to the BBC and fan sites) and this one has the problem of being shown pre-internet.  If sources emerge, aarticle could be resurrected.  Sionk ( talk ) 11:26, 29 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Redirect to List of Doctor Who villains .  Didn’t Sil appear more than once?  I don’t really remember, but in any case it might be time to make a “not Tardis Data Core” essay Dronebogus ( talk ) 22:19, 29 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Note : The user https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Pokelego999 has over approx two days mass-nominated for deletion 51 Doctor Who-related articles as follows: Blinovitch Limitation Effect, Destrii, Muriel Frost, Kadiatu Lethbridge-Stewart, Iris Wildthyme, Shayde, Fey Truscott-Sade, Sam Jones (Doctor Who), Molly O'Sullivan, Jason Kane (Doctor Who), Flip Jackson, Mila (Doctor Who), Charley Pollard, Evelyn Smythe, Thomas Brewster (Doctor Who), Abby (Doctor Who), Vislor Turlough, Rutan (Doctor Who), Draconian (Doctor Who), Sisterhood of Karn, Henry Gordon Jago, Professor George Litefoot, Forge (Doctor Who), Timewyrm, Threshold (Doctor Who), Coal Hill School, Nimrod (Doctor Who), Nobody No-One, Borusa, The Monk (Doctor Who), Polly (Doctor Who), Ben Jackson (Doctor Who), List of UNIT personnel, John and Gillian, Shalka Doctor, Sabbath (Doctor Who), Chris Cwej, Grandfather Paradox (Doctor Who), The Other (Doctor Who), Alan Jackson (The Sarah Jane Adventures), Vortis (Doctor Who), Thal (Doctor Who), Ogron, Werewolf (Doctor Who), Sil (Doctor Who), White Guardian, Mara (Doctor Who), Sabalom Glitz, Castellan (Doctor Who), Professor Edward Travers, Alpha Centauri (Doctor Who) Such a mass deletion would significantly alter the coverage of Doctor Who on wikipedia.  WikiProject Doctor Who was not informed beforehand.  Regards, Anameofmyveryown ( talk ) 15:56, 30 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Sil (Doctor Who) has had clean-up templates (including notability) for well over a year.  The Dr Who project automatically get notified of related deletion discussions.  Sionk ( talk ) 16:07, 30 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] They did get such notifications.  They got fifty-one of them over two days.  What did you expect them to do in those circumstances?  Anameofmyveryown ( talk ) 16:12, 30 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Anameofmyveryown , many of these AFD nominations have been withdrawn after I informed the nominator that I thought they were overwhelming AFD space.  And I did inform the Doctor Who WikiProject yesterday when I saw all of the nominations, I posted a notice on their talk page (see here ) which you know because you responded to my notice.  L iz Read!  Talk!  04:47, 1 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] The operative word in my comment was " beforehand ".  The first AFD was lodged at 07:00, 01:39, 30 June 2023 (UTC) .  Your notice was posted 07:00, 30 June 2023 (UTC) , which was 5hrs 21mins afterwards .  Regards, Anameofmyveryown ( talk ) 00:49, 2 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] It's normal for interested parties to be informed after a nomination, rather than beforehand.  As I said above, many of these articles had issues that had been flagged up months beforehand.  Sionk ( talk ) 15:33, 2 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] WikiProject DW had years to clean those articles up.  Thank you for noting that User:Pokelego999 deserves a barnstar for tackling this issue.

Talk!  05:42, 6 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.  Relisting comment: Like other Doctor Who articles, we need some agreement on a redirect target.  Please add new comments below this notice.  Thanks, L iz Read!  Talk!  06:08, 13 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Redirect to List of Doctor Who villains where he is already listed.  As Dronebogus mentioned, as the character appeared several times, it would make more sense for the redirect to point towards the villain list.  Rorshacma ( talk ) 14:54, 14 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment adding that List of Doctor Who villains is a reasonable redirect target.  If need be, finding a better target can be done through editing.  Shooterwalker ( talk ) 01:26, 20 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] The above discussion is preserved as an archive of the debate.
