A New Subject

Welcome back from your vacation, AO! I would like to establish a new subject on the Southern aristocracy, but the page currently redirects to Plantations in the American South. How does one go about this? Am I to delete the redirect and begin contributing, or does the current page need deleting before the page can be used for content? – Conservatrix (talk) 06:44, 11 June 2018 (UTC)

Though reliable sources often employ the term "aristocracy," I could alternatively use Planter class to avoid its pointed nature. – Conservatrix (talk) 07:27, 11 June 2018 (UTC)

Good morning Conservatrix. I suggest you that propose the redirect for deletion (WP:PROD}. If no one objects the redirect will be deleted in seven days. The redirect has no substantial history of editing so I don't think it will be controversial. Just explain you want to create an article with that title. -Ad Orientem (talk) 12:59, 11 June 2018 (UTC)
Ack. I just noticed that PROD can't be used with redirects which seems odd. Send it to RfD or nominate it for CSD (G6). -Ad Orientem (talk) 13:03, 11 June 2018 (UTC)

Nevermind, it looks like NeilN already took care of it. 37.106.180.252 (talk) 06:34, 12 June 2018 (UTC)

Saudi Arabia ECP

Hi Ad, I've been going through Middle Eastern Countries in light of the recent AE thread about Jordan. The consensus there was that the article on the whole country was broadly but not reasonably construed to be in the ARPIA topic area (there is apparently a difference: the committee imposed sanctions are reasonably construed while discretionary sanctions are broadly construed.)

Anyway, the two other Arab countries I found that were under ECP were Saudi Arabia and Lebanon. I took Lebanon to AN (see thread) and the emerging consensus there is that the Lebanon page is outside of the restrictions. I've read over the Saudi article again, and I think it probably is too. My gut here says that the only two country/national entity articles at this time that are under the restrictions should be Israel and State of Palestine, but that is obviously my gut and not consensus.

Anyway, would you mind reviewing your protection there and telling me what you think? If you'd rather test consensus at AE or AN, I'm also fine with that. I'm just trying to get some semblance of uniformity in that area TonyBallioni (talk) 13:16, 13 June 2018 (UTC)
