Looking to recreate User:Prisencolin/List of League of Legends champions

I believe this list meets the WP:CSC guideline, which I don't recall existed when the last AFD occurred in 2016.--Prisencolin (talk) 04:18, 12 July 2020 (UTC)

No. Ben · Salvidrim! ✉ 01:21, 13 July 2020 (UTC)

Please explain? Thanks.--16:50, 14 July 2020 (UTC)

(talk page watcher) At it's core? WP:CSC isn't a notability guideline, but guidance on how to define the scope of a list. The notability guideline is WP:LISTN. @AngusWOOF: As info, as there appears to be some shopping going on. -- ferret (talk) 17:15, 14 July 2020 (UTC)

For the record I thought Angus' decline was absolutely on-point. And like Ferret said, CSC is a MOS guideline. It says "how" to write a list, not "if" a list topic is suitable. Ben · Salvidrim! ✉ 18:46, 14 July 2020 (UTC)

Happy First Edit Day!

• Coolio! For any curious talk page watchers, my first registered edit on July 29th, 2010 was providing images on a talk page [1]; my first registered mainspace edit was a year later on July 1st, 2011, fixing a lede [2]. But, my first true TRUE edit was actually in June 2010, a typo correction! [3] Ben · Salvidrim! ✉ 01:00, 30 July 2020 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Bubble Trouble Lynx.jpg

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Bubble Trouble Lynx.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 17:57, 2 August 2020 (UTC)
