Just want to say

Be careful about marking pages for deletion... ED upgraded to the latest MediaWiki recently, and it looks like some non-English pages might've been accidentally deleted. Until we figure out what's going on (and this could take a while, since ED is very busy), I'd rather not delete any of those pages that redirect to foreign-language pages that currently don't seem to exist... because they might have existed once.

Anyway, welcome to PandoraWiki! You've made a lot of nice edits recently. What prompted you to come over here suddenly? Was there a discussion on the German forums? Esn 05:58, 20 April 2011 (MEST)

Hi there, sure I pay attention if the content is outdated or just a stub or (in my opinion) is badly named. I agree thats hard to decide for non english articles, but as this is a wiki, I decided to be gritty. Thats why I just marked them to delete and a second admin should decide if it's nesessary. If I did anything wrong feel free to drop me a note and to revert my changes.
No there wasn't a discussion at the german boards. I come over from the OpenStreetMap project, where I do wiki cleanup, too. Guess this is my faith to help to document OpenSource projects ;) And course my bachelor thesis is nearly finished, I decided to put some more attention on the Pandora :) --ABC 07:55, 20 April 2011 (MEST)
Regarding "if you did anything wrong", the main thing I don't like currently is that you're copy+pasting templates from Wikipedia that look ugly here because some of the elements are missing. For example, this one. Please just remove the missing elements & redlinks unless you're planning to bring them over as well (and honestly, we're much smaller than Wikipedia here; we don't NEED all the stuff that they have).
