This is a strange one. An article on this subject was first created on 14 April 2011. It was taken to AFD in May 2012, which led to a decision to incubate the article. Unscintillating ( talk · contribs) initiated a discussion about the incubated article at Wikipedia talk:Article Incubator/Platform No. 1. No one else contributed any input, but the "result" of the "discussion" involved creating a page in mainspace "to mark mainspace with a Portal template". The resulting page is obviously not a normal article, and as a result it was nominated for speedy deletion under the "no content" criterion. I declined the speedy because this clearly isn't the typical "no content" situation. Really I'm not sure what it is. Unscintillating has also posted about this at Wikipedia:Village pump (policy)#Incubator Portal review, but even looking at their comments there, I can't make sense of what they are trying to do. So I'm bringing this to AFD for discussion so the community can provide input on whether this sort of "marker" is something that should be permitted in mainspace.

Sppedy delete - no content. We do not need for every article that is "incubated" from articles for deletion, a note in the main namespace. Wikipedia is for articles, not notes that sometime in the future an article perhaps might be created here if references can be found and the editor can be bothered do write the article properly which he should have done in the first place.
