- The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.
The result was Move without redirect to Wikipedia:Wiki Loves Africa 2020 in Sudan. The later parts of the discussion make the very good point that cross-namespace redirects, while already generally discouraged, are practically unheard-of in the form of mainspace to meta-wiki. Given such a redirect is likely to be deleted itself at redirects for discussion if it were created here, the other option proposed seems to have the informed consensus. Given the article itself is basically a duplicate of the meta-wiki page it may be correct to soft-redirect it anyway once moved. ~ mazca talk 13:01, 19 May 2020 (UTC)

Not finding any coverage for this organization/event in reliable sources (at least for the 2020 version). It appears to be connected to various things related to the Wikimedia Foundation, but doesn't meet WP:GNG, so it shouldn't remain in the mainspace. Hog Farm ( talk) 21:43, 10 May 2020 (UTC)

- Redirect to meta article per Zoozaz1 - Aaqib Anjum Aafī ( talk) 05:36, 16 May 2020 (UTC)
- Comment - is it appropriate to have an interwiki redirect from mainspace to metawiki? That seems dubious to me, especially seeing as we almost never redirect mainspace to the WP namespace per
WP:CROSS.

- From my experience at RFD, this would not likely survive an RFD discussion.

- That is also my experience. Normally redirecting is a low cost WP:ATD but in this case I don't think it's appropriate. Best, Barkeep49 ( talk) 01:12, 19 May 2020 (UTC)

- Move without redirect to project space. This doesn't appear to be intended as an article.
