104:'Per nom' is as she says pretty useless in most discussions (not just AfDs). Almost no discussion here is actually a vote (we often refer to it as a not-vote or !vote), it's a discussion, and your policy arguments matter more than your !vote. If you can't at least restate in your own words what you're dittoing, many closers may discount your contribution as a drive-by, especially when you're also voting Delete in nearly every discussion. No, there's no policy on that, although there is an essay at 536:
It's a quality vs quantity decision. Knowledge (XXG) doesn't need unreliable articles that will never grow in my opinion. With the advent of large language models, Knowledge (XXG) will not have a funnel of new editors in a few years. Search engines won't be sending traffic here. In my opinion, it will be more useful to have reliable articles instead of a badly sourced page for every proper noun in particular books.
592: 33:
seriously and most closers just ignore these remarks. You have now been participating in AFDs for a couple of weeks and I don't see any improvement in your contributions. Please raise the quality of your AFD participation or go do one of the million of other activities available to editors on this enormous project of ours. Thank you.

I don't want to add to overall concerns, but I did want to understand more of your rationale behind your contributions here on the English wiki. I have seen several dozen AFDs all related to Latter Day Saint movement topics, and while some of them have removed articles that are not necessary, some of

There's no level of experience necessary, and you're welcome to participate there. Liz is just asking you to participate more thoughtfully, and I'm saying that you might want to read there (or in any other Knowledge (XXG) space, such as noticeboards) for a while until you see what kinds of votes are
535:
As to rather removing parts of tge wiki that don't belong - I feel it is necessary. The wiki even has a set of processes around it, because it is needed. Editors can only perform so many edits. If they are updating categories on non notable pages, "we" lose actual meaningful edits to notable pages.
345:
If you'd like to talk about the "per nom" I said, I would love to continue that conversation. Liz never replied. I looked at the AFDs I participated in, and users with over 100,000 edits were also saying "Delete per nom". It still isn't clear to me why I was admonished for what looks to be the most
378:
It sounds like you know about criteria for participation I haven't found. What is required to say "keep per nom" specifically? In the afd I mentioned, the 100,000+ edit user said it after I did. We reached the same conclusion. Same inputs, same outputs, but my opinion was called thoughtless and a

I'm going to say this as politely as I can but you are giving low quality, drive-by votes in the AFDs you participate in. I can tell you've read the deletion nomination statement but it is not apparent that you have even read the article must less conducted a thorough assessment of quality of the

I am actually new to list articles. I imagined the list would need to be of a notable thing, backed by what Knowledge (XXG) calls reliable secondary sources. I couldn't find any books about lists of places in the book of mormon that were not owned bybthe church. If you have some sources, that os

Several of the pages that you have been working on are on my watchlist, and when these latest two AFDs showed up I thought to come here. I haven't had any conversations with anyone outside of those. I agree there are many cases where obscure proper nouns don't deserve a proper article -- I have
531:
Out of curiosity, how did you decide to come to my talk page today? I have had a lot of people stop by to talk in a short time period (under 24h). I'm actually not as active as I was a couple months ago, so it seems there must be another catalyst outside of my talk page edits today. Is there a

Also, you personally deleted *most* of the articles I nominated. I'd like to see some diffs of what you consider edits that may have been disruptive, if you have some. I didn't know that "outline" articles were a thing, so I did flub by nominating one. Thanks again for your follow up to these
32:
If you do not want to put in the time and effort to participate thoughtfully in an AFD deletion discussion, then please find other activities on the project to take on. Useless comments like "Delete per nom" or "Fails GNG" with no elaboration is just a sign that you are not taking the process
117:
In general, it's best for newer editors to edit in article space, watch & listen in Knowledge (XXG) space. Participating in Knowledge (XXG) space at your level of experience is not likely to be very productive for Knowledge (XXG) and is likely to be actively counterproductive for you.
555:. However, when someone comes along and does a massive deletion of content in that same sphere, it looks like POV pushing in the opposite direction. Does that make sense? In the process of seeking to clean up articles, rather than simply deleting content as 111:
It doesn't matter that you've seen other people do that at other AfDs. Those people may not be contributing thoughtfully, either. No, you shouldn't notify lots of other people who do this; you don't have anywhere near the experience to assess that behavior
68:
Also, would you be willing to link me towards the policy that says we can't say delete per nom? I didn't make that phrase up, I saw it on hundreds of AFDs. Are you notifying lots of people delete per nom isn't ok? Should I? .

Can you provide some independent reliable in depth sources on minor locations listed in the book of mormon? Thank you. I could only find Sunday school sermons and the occasional wp:fringe Atlantis theories.

I don't have a previous account on this wiki, but I have edited another wiki for a few years. Some of the policies here I'm learning to navigate, but the actual mechanics I'm moderately experienced with.
174: 266:
I'll take that as a compliment. I've read a lot around here, but some people (see the thread above) think I'm too new. I guess I'm in the awkward haircut phase of not having a 10 year old account yet.
346:
common way of saying "I agree with the nominator and don't have anything else substantial to add", but other users are allowed to say "delete/keep per nom". Can you help me find the policy on it?
342:
No, I do not have any alternate accounts. I did read the guidance on them after seeing it linked in a thread about other editors, but alt accounts don't seem to be applicable to me.

Also, rather than simply deleting every Book of Mormon place, why not redirect them to 680:, without consulting with a checkuser or the Arbitration Committee.
