Timing automation
Out of interest, is the timing of notifying users of stale drafts with Template:Db-draft-notice automated or is it up to AfC editors to notice when something is >6months old? T.Shafee(Evo&Evo)talk 06:00, 16 October 2019 (UTC)
- It's used by nominators to notify creators when they nominate their draft for G13, it's not automated. But probably there is/will be a bot who notifies creators when their draft isn't edited for 5 months, so it can be saved from WP:G13. -- CptViraj (📧) 06:26, 16 October 2019 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of File:Samba Gumba Mustang.jpg
Hi, I saw ure post for speedy deletion of this file. The file is not mine. My comment on it is that it has been erroneously connected to a Mustang Monuments ID. The file itself says it is Sambha Gompa near Muktinath. But the Mustang Monuments ID it was connected to is for Sambha Gompa, Tukuche. There is no need for deletion if the link to the Mustang Monument ID can be removed. Thanks for your help. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nima t100 (talk • contribs) 03:26, 20 October 2019 (UTC)
