Newspeak
[edit]Hi, you've deleted List of Newspeak words. How does that not violate WP:Merge and delete? wumbolo ^^^ 17:23, 18 April 2019 (UTC)
- This is a courtesy note that I have restored List of Newspeak words per WP:MAD. Even if you weren't aware of WP:MAD for whatever reason, you should have known that G6 deletion would be controversial due to Ritchie333's previous decline. I do want to add that your deletion created a massive clean-up because that list had several valid redirects that could have been simply retargeted to the merge location. Please be more careful in the future. Thanks, -- Tavix (talk) 13:57, 19 April 2019 (UTC)
- Oops, my sincere apologies - I must have had my wrong head on when I did that. Thank you for clearing up the mess - I will indeed be more careful in future. PhantomSteve/talk¦contribs\ 16:14, 19 April 2019 (UTC)
