behind redirects, would perhaps make more experienced editors more likely to look at them for information to merge here, from a list at one or more wikiprojects. Draftification is also what we normally do with new articles that are either on dubiously independently notable topics or poorly realized; it's both fairer and less of a drain on community resources if we don't treat the products of editathons and other special projects promoting new article creation differently. Draft space is for new articles that aren't ready for mainspace; let's just use it. (Note that draftification was suggested at

This is not necessarily bad: I am pretty sure they are considered reliable. However surely there are journal articles out there in this topic, and they would improve the article, as would a diversity of sources

One of the articles (the one on Animal agriculture) was actually pretty good, I spun it up as a separate article since we don't have much info on Animal agriculture anywhere else,
406:. With more exploration, we are going to have more floods, more desertification, higher temperatures, and high-water stress, and more land are going to be lost in Niger delta.
