Speedy deletion nomination of Category:RuPaul's Drag Race season 6 episodes
[edit]
A tag has been placed on Category:RuPaul's Drag Race season 6 episodes indicating that it is currently empty, and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion. If it remains empty for seven days or more, it may be deleted under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and removing the speedy deletion tag. Liz Read! Talk! 07:03, 23 January 2026 (UTC)
Category recreation
[edit]Naraht, are you aware of this previous deletion discussion? I ask due to your recreation of Category:RuPaul's Drag Race season 6 episodes.-- Ponyobons mots 20:06, 23 January 2026 (UTC)
- Ponyo Yes. That isn't what these categories are. These categories are specific to the episodes rather than overall to the seasons. *Both* levels existed at that point and once the Season categories were deleted in this CFD and later a *lot* of back and forth over the notability of individual episodes the primary author moved all of the episodes to Draft and the season episode categories were deleted. See Category:RuPaul's Drag Race season 5 episodes for information on when the *episode* categories for each season occured and the notifications to me are at User_talk:Naraht/Archive_18, specifically around 21 November, by Liz.
- Once enough episodes of each season went through the AFC process for a season, the episode categories were recreated. (Given that they weren't removed by a CFD but rather after being emptied, there is no issue with recreating them) Each of the categories has at least three entries. There are a few left in the overall Category:RuPaul's Drag Race episodes for the seasons that don't have three episodes.Naraht (talk) 20:18, 23 January 2026 (UTC)
- Okay, I just wanted to double check that you were aware as the recreation popped up in an edit filter. Cheers, -- Ponyobons mots 20:23, 23 January 2026 (UTC)
- I understand. I presume this means that if Category:ABC DEF GHI had been deleted in a CFD then creating Category:ABC DEF GHI JKL would hit the filter?Naraht (talk) 20:26, 23 January 2026 (UTC)
- Ponyo Apologies, didn't ping.Naraht (talk) 20:27, 23 January 2026 (UTC)
- I'm not sure exactly what specifically tripped the recreation filer in this case. All good though!-- Ponyobons mots 20:35, 23 January 2026 (UTC)

Trying to have the script two arguments generated as a strong from the subtemplate, if you have any ideas, let me know (the values will eventually be generated by a large switch statement) (so for example, if 'K' is the argument sent to the subtemplate, it will return something like section_url=https:/www.oneone.com|section_name=AABBCC , but it doesn't appear it will evaluate that as part of the template at that point.

The arclimits method
[edit]It appears you had reverted my update of the Angle Trisection page. If you are able to refute my solution, which I have called the arclimits method, I would welcome correction. Sandwich the arc of an angle between a straight line and a semicircle, both of which may be divided into thirds easily, and connect those dividing points. I wonder if the line to connect/trisect/divide is exactly circular, and would enjoy comment. But I cannot reason that the trisecting line would inflect in any way; whereas I reason it must depart from the straight line's dividing point perpendicularly Michaelatobias (talk) 14:51, 30 March 2026 (UTC)

- Michaelatobias It isn't what wikipedia is for, if for all the claims to have solved Angle Trisection, the article would be 100 times the length and you have no more right to do this than publishing it as a book and demand that your local library *or* local bookstore put it on their shelves for sale. Censorship (and similar) is that you can't say what you want on the streets, what you are claiming is the right to walk into a business and expressing your opinion. They have every right to tell you to leave.
