Deletion tag

Delete or not? Would it be better to call for a translation? Mikado282 (talk) 13:43, 14 October 2017 (PDT)

The original page creator originally HAD apparently translated the page with no formatting, then blanked it for some reason. Original text if anyone wants

However, since it's been a while since the blanking was done, and since then nobody has tried to translate the page, I don't see the point of keeping it (then again I also don't see the point of deleting it other than the fact that it's completely blank).

Maybe this page can be kept just to preserve the edit history, as the original page WAS translated despite lacking formatting. A future translator might be able to use that, and I've saved it into a .txt file some time ago just in case. ⇒ Anyar (talk/contributions/giveaway) 14:37, 14 October 2017 (PDT)

Good information. Was it a good translation? This would be unconventional, but would it be worth stub tag to give notice to the existing draft? But I guess that is really the ballywick of zh-hans. Mikado282 (talk) 14:50, 14 October 2017 (PDT)

"ballywick"?

While the translations are not top-notch, they certainly are functional and overall alright. Maybe unblank the page, then put a stub or cleanup notice? ⇒ Anyar (talk/contributions/giveaway) 17:10, 14 October 2017 (PDT)

"area of authority" :)

Your call, it was a suggestion that popped into mind. I have no way of knowing what is in it. I would check the OP's contribution history for any clue of intent. Mikado282 (talk) 18:54, 14 October 2017 (PDT)

"ballywick" vs "bailiwick"

OP has a few contribs for zh-hant and zh-hans, including Sixth Annual Saxxy Awards/zh-hans. I dunno, I'm gonna unblank the page then and put a cleanup tag. ⇒ Anyar (talk/contributions/giveaway) 06:55, 15 October 2017 (PDT)

Wow, no formatting, not even line breaks. I hope I didn't give bad advice. I wonder if this was the output of a tool or copy that stripped all non-text. If it is a good translation, I don't care who does the clean up, but I have no authority with translations (so why am I saying anything?). Mikado282 (talk) 21:01, 15 October 2017 (PDT)

Shoot, I just read the OP's contribution; maybe the OP wasn't ready to commit; possibly just inexperienced. Mikado282 (talk) 21:16, 15 October 2017 (PDT)

Probably. Less than a page of contribs. Not sure why the formatting was destroyed, to be honest, but the translations seem alright, and don't seem to be plagiarized from zh-hant either, so that's cool. ⇒ Anyar (talk/contributions/giveaway) 07:44, 16 October 2017 (PDT)
