Wikivoyage:Votes for deletion/August 2024

Created as part of a larger group of Mongolian editors (see User:A09/LTA/MON), though unlike many of the others, I couldn't find specific copyvio nor was it AI-generated. However, many of this user's uploads on Commons lack a license (all but one are confirmed copyvios) which make me skeptical of trusting this article. It would be better to nuke this article and restart from scratch were we to have an actual travel article of Uvs Nuur Lake. --SHB2000 (t | c | m) 22:59, 3 August 2024 (UTC)reply

Agreed. Ikan Kekek (talk) 23:05, 3 August 2024 (UTC)reply

Opposed. If the article text and photos are not copied from others then there is no reason to delete this, if the article clearly presenting new site. MN5 (talk) 03:44, 4 August 2024 (UTC)reply

User:MN5, first of all, read Wikivoyage:Bodies of water and tell us why this lake shouldn't just have a listing in an article for the nearest town. Second, instead of using the word "if", tell us where the text and photos are from. Ikan Kekek (talk) 08:01, 4 August 2024 (UTC)reply

I don't know exact copyright policy of the English Wikivoyage but based on the tracker I've created yesterday we can see that some article contained image material that was all tagged and deleted as copyright infringement. A09 (talk) 09:02, 4 August 2024 (UTC)reply

A09, the exact copyright policy is spelled out on the Wikivoyage:Copyleft page. Ikan Kekek (talk) 06:40, 5 August 2024 (UTC)reply

Thanks, it was a refreshing read. Best regards, A09 (talk) 07:51, 5 August 2024 (UTC)reply

It could be redirected (and maybe merged) to Ulaangom which has a listing for the lake. AlasdairW (talk) 09:38, 4 August 2024 (UTC)reply

Even then it would be better to nuke it then create a redirect – that way if the text in question is a copyvio, it can't be found in the history. --SHB2000 (t | c | m) 10:00, 4 August 2024 (UTC)reply

Outcome: clear consensus to delete. --SHB2000 (t | c | m) 10:08, 17 August 2024 (UTC)reply

Similar to above, though I couldn't confirm whether this was a copyvio. Previous articles and file uploads on Commons have either been deleted as a) copyvio, b) AI-generated article or c) out-of-scope. Monatries are also very edge cases for their own articles, and only get their own in exceedingly rare cases. --SHB2000 (t | c | m) 01:49, 5 August 2024 (UTC)reply

Delete per nom. Ikan Kekek (talk) 06:40, 5 August 2024 (UTC)reply

How about Yeruu River? Ikan Kekek (talk) 06:43, 5 August 2024 (UTC)reply

I think that could be speedied per Wikivoyage:Bodies of water. --SHB2000 (t | c | m) 06:53, 5 August 2024 (UTC)reply

Well, it's claimed to be a rural area, but I don't think it fits the Wikivoyage guidelines for a rural area article. Ikan Kekek (talk) 07:50, 5 August 2024 (UTC)reply

Outcome: deleted. --SHB2000 (t | c | m) 03:31, 20 August 2024 (UTC)reply
