Speedy deletion nomination of Category:Campsites in Hong Kong

 

A tag has been placed on Category:Campsites in Hong Kong indicating that it is currently empty, and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, a featured topics category, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion. If it remains empty for seven days or more, it may be deleted under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and removing the speedy deletion tag. –Aidan721 (talk) 22:17, 29 December 2023 (UTC)

Archiving your talk page

Hi! I was wondering if you would be able to archive your talk page? It is currently 170 kilobytes long, and the talk page guidelines recommend archiving once the page is over 75 kilobytes. There is a guide at Help:Archiving (plain and simple), or I would be happy to help you do so. Best, HouseBlaster (talk · he/him) 02:03, 29 January 2024 (UTC)

Thanks, done. Mhockey (talk) 21:19, 29 January 2024 (UTC)

Invitation to join New pages patrol

 

Hello Mhockey!

  • The New Pages Patrol is currently struggling to keep up with the influx of new articles needing review. We could use a few extra hands to help.
  • We think that someone with your activity and experience is very likely to meet the guidelines for granting.
  • Reviewing/patrolling a page doesn't take much time, but it requires a strong understanding of Wikipedia’s CSD policy and notability guidelines.
  • Kindly read the tutorial before making your decision, and feel free to post on the project talk page with questions.
  • If patrolling new pages is something you'd be willing to help out with, please consider applying here.

Thank you for your consideration. We hope to see you around!
