AFDs

Hello, Vedicant,

While you might have created your account a long time ago, you have very limited editing experience. Please do not participate in AFD deletion discussion until you have a lot more editing experience and knowledge of Wikipedia policies and guidelines.

If you have questions about this, please bring them to the Teahouse. Thank you. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 07:06, 7 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Liz My AFD "votes" were the final outcome in each and every instance. Most new articles in this encyclopedia are crap anyway. FYI I may choose to participate in AFD dscussions in future, since my academic researcher nose for BS, spam and puffery is second to none. Vedicant (talk) 04:30, 11 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
