I appreciate the work you're putting in for making Tetris-themed templates. Would it be possible to make ones for outdated pages and pages to be deleted? I know there are several that could use the template.

:Thank you :) I can absolutely create those templates. I've done a bit of research on how other wikis handle deletion and outdated pages, the later is pretty straight forward, but deleting is usually quite complex. For TetrisWiki's purposes I think simply having a speedy deletion template is good enough for now. Speedy deletion is when a page should be deleted without discussion. Wikipedia uses this, as well as deletion proposal, which asks other contributors to discuss the proposed deletion. I don't think TetrisWiki is large enough, or has anything with actual content worth deleting right now. Let me know what you think. I think it's also worth making a [[TetrisWiki:Deletion]] page for instructions how we decided to handle such cases. Lastly, I've reached out to Myndzi about getting higher privileges so I can edit CSS, and other templates. I'll also ask about deleting pages, since I believe neither of us have that capability. --[[User:Simonlc|simonlc]] ([[User talk:Simonlc|talk]]) 22:46, 2 January 2019 (PST) | |||

Maintenance templates
I appreciate the work you're putting in for making Tetris-themed templates. Would it be possible to make ones for outdated pages and pages to be deleted? I know there are several that could use the template. Arcorann (talk) 17:43, 2 January 2019 (PST)
- Thank you :) I can absolutely create those templates. I've done a bit of research on how other wikis handle deletion and outdated pages, the later is pretty straight forward, but deleting is usually quite complex. For TetrisWiki's purposes I think simply having a speedy deletion template is good enough for now. Speedy deletion is when a page should be deleted without discussion.
