Nicotine Girls

I noticed that you plaed the PROD template on the article Nicotine Girls, but then removed it and nominated for AFD. This is a bit unusal because the standard procedure would be to wait a full week; if no one objects to the PROD, the article is deleted automatically without need for a discussion. Normally, editors will only move from a PROD to an AFD when someone objects without providing enough sources to meet WP:GNG. Just wondering why you moved in that way.

Ah, the answer is because I didn't fully understand the procedures. I saw instructions about adding the PROD template somewhere, but I expected it to generate an AfD discussion. When I did some more research I found the AfD process which seemed more "complete", so I followed that.

Do you have a recommendation how to proceed? I don't think either article demonstrates notability on its own although the topics could be merged into a list, or the indie RPG article. I thought it would be appropriate though to allow people who feel otherwise to try and locate better sources than the ones that are there currently.Ewilen (talk) 00:32, 30 January 2014 (UTC)

Hello, I'm MichaelMaggs. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Mondegreen, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. That site is not a reliable source MichaelMaggs (talk) 21:40, 1 September 2020 (UTC)
