Putting alot of candidates too fast
I'm not exactly sure what to say but can putting up candidates be slowed down a bit? Sometimes, when I look at these category, the number of candidates being put up from time to time can be a bit overwhelming. Some of the candidates are just being nominated without much explanation. Some others are just being nominated with an explanation but without much of discussion to decide whether they should be deleted or not. Others still that are appearing are somewhat superfluous and can be just solved by redirects.

I know I shouldn't complain but can the nominations really be slowed down? At the very least, when a person nominates a major looking page, could there be a proper discussion on the page and no further nominations from the same person until the matter is solved?Mugiwara Franky 14:32, January 11, 2010 (UTC)


 * Some pages, like empty categories, empty or nearly empty pages created by anons don tot need a discussion, the reason for their nomination is obvious. Other pages have a discussion, but it was not continued, like the talk on RT1975 which also covers the other two RT redirects. in general, I think that organising a voting on every candidate would be too complicated. I would propse to write the reason for deletion in the edit summary. You should then delete every page 1 week after it's nomination if nobody protests. El Chupacabra 15:19, January 11, 2010 (UTC)


 * Well last time the Category was inflating, I made a topic in the Vote for delation page and it was quite effective. And a big part of the candidate articles have already been discussed there. Once, I asked you what was the process for the deletion. I assume that your lack of answer means that there are none (which I think is not good). Also, it would be usefull that you give a reason for why you keep some pages and delete others. For example, there are some typo redirection that you have deleted (chapter 496) but other that you have kept (episodes 275), or why you kept the RT197xx despite nobody asked to keep them. If you disagree with a nomination, you should say it clearly rather than not delete the page. Kdom 22:10, January 11, 2010 (UTC)
