Delete[edit]

Hopelessly off-mission, no substantive edits in years. It’s a broad enough topic that there could be a RW article on the subject, but this isn’t it. I’d have deleted it without going through afd if it wasn’t created by an active user. Christopher (talk) 21:54, 15 March 2021 (UTC)

  1. While there could be some mission basis with reference to things like the placebo effect, I'm not convinced that this would justify a separate article. Placebos often come in pills - be that doesn't mean we need an article "pill".Bob"Life is short and (insert adjective)" 12:53, 18 March 2021 (UTC)
And this vote may be counted for "draft" if there are no more votes for delete.Bob"Life is short and (insert adjective)" 10:02, 19 March 2021 (UTC)

Keep[edit]

  1. The Pain article in its current state is shit. But if edited I think it could be a good one. People don't like pain so there is potential for criticism of altmed woo, the pharmaceutical industry, drug addiction, corporal punishment, people who hate BDSM like TERFs, etc. VerminWiki (talk) 22:50, 15 March 2021 (UTC)
  2. The above user has convinced me to vote keep. Pizza SLICE.gifChef Moosolini’s Ristorante ItalianoMake a Reservation 22:52, 15 March 2021 (UTC)
  3. Assuming VerminWiki does write the article. If not it can be moved to draftspace, in case they or someone else comes back to it at a later date. Christopher (talk) 23:02, 15 March 2021 (UTC)

  5. I've given it some love, while it's nowhere near a bronze star, it's still better than a lot of the stubs. Could be something more, I suppose. Much of it is missional. CorruptUser 17:53, 16 March 2021 (UTC)

Merge/redirect[edit]

#I second that...-Flandres (talk) 11:49, 16 March 2021 (UTC)
  1. Move to draftspace. Kauri0.o (talk) 01:32, 16 March 2021 (UTC)
  2. Move to Draft, on the understanding that it gets improved instead of just sitting there forever. We need a good article having a go at all the woo around pain. Avida Dollarsher again 20:45, 16 March 2021 (UTC)
  3. Kevlarstar Ping! 07:16, 17 March 2021 (UTC)
    @Kevlarstar I take it you mean "move to draftspace." But since that's not the only possibility that could come under "Merge/redirect", this is another occasion when you should have actually said something and not just signed your name. Spud (talk) 11:23, 17 March 2021 (UTC)
    Yes, move to draftspace. Kevlarstar Ping! 12:02, 17 March 2021 (UTC)

Goat[edit]

If I (teh ownerz) or someone else wants to beef it up, it could be something, otherwise death to pain. Let's let the mob decide...CorruptUser 22:40, 15 March 2021 (UTC)
