::: There should be a difference between "speedydelete" (no or almost no content) and "delete" (if there is content, even though doubtful). Moreover between deletion and Cold Storage there is also the means of blanking (or almost blanking) a page. This should best be discussed "theoretically", in a quiet atmosphere, independent of any "current" case with personal involvements. --[[User:Peter Schmitt|Peter Schmitt]] 00:03, 22 May 2010 (UTC)

Login required?

Possibly people will try to use these pages for reference, despite us telling them not to. Perhaps access should be disabled without CZ login? John Stephenson 22:12, 20 July 2007 (CDT)

Hmmm. Good point.  —Stephen Ewen (Talk) 22:24, 20 July 2007 (CDT)

Isn't this a plugin--one that would allows password access based on namespace? --Larry Sanger 22:32, 20 July 2007 (CDT)

Wasn't a consensus reached?

Does CZ plan to use this or not? There was some question as to what should go here. Robert Winmill came up with a list that was never discussed:

The Cold Storage criterion:

1 - Not noteworthy person as of now
2 - To small geographically to be maintainable as of now
3 - Stubs that were started and abandoned
4 - Strange stuff that has no place in CZ as of now--David Yamakuchi 22:53, 21 May 2010 (UTC)

There has been a forum discussion recently on this - the subject title mentions Ormus, a piece of pseudoscience about which there was briefly an article, now deleted - the suggestion was to put it and similar here. Ro Thorpe 23:00, 21 May 2010 (UTC)

There should be a difference between "speedydelete" (no or almost no content) and "delete" (if there is content, even though doubtful). Moreover between deletion and Cold Storage there is also the means of blanking (or almost blanking) a page. This should best be discussed "theoretically", in a quiet atmosphere, independent of any "current" case with personal involvements. --Peter Schmitt 00:03, 22 May 2010 (UTC)
