Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Cambodia

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a collection of discussions on the deletion and merging of articles related to Cambodia. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting. Anyone can help maintain the list on this page.

Adding a new AfD discussion
Adding an AfD to this page does not add it to the main page at WP:AFD. Similarly, removing an AfD from this page does not remove it from the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page before adding it to this page. To add a discussion to this page, follow these steps:
  1. Edit this page and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. Also, indicate the title of the article in the edit summary as it is particularly helpful to add a link to the article in the edit summary. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
  2. You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Cambodia|~~~~}} to it, which will inform editors that it has been listed here. You may place this tag above or below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.
There are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.
Removing a closed AfD discussion
Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.
Other types of discussions
You can also add and remove other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to Cambodia. For the other XfD's, the process is the same as AfD (except {{Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/PageName}} is used for MFD and {{transclude xfd}} for the rest). For PRODs, adding a link with {{prodded}} will suffice.
Further information
For further information see Wikipedia's deletion policy and WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day of nomination.

This list is also part of the larger list of deletion debates related to Asia.

This article has lingered unsourced since 2008. I did a before search and found nothing of value. Not sure if it's a hoax or if someone was confused by a TV show of the same name (the original talk page was moved to the TV show back in 2024). I've never encountered any mention of such a unit in my research. The article's original author was also blocked in 2009 for abusing multiple accounts. Intothatdarkness 00:59, 2 July 2026 (UTC)

  • Delete - Created by a now-blocked sock-puppet. As mentioned above, no sourcing, etc. — Maile (talk) 01:35, 2 July 2026 (UTC)
  • Speedy (procedural) close and revert to prior version -- as of 2024, this was a disambiguation page. Just revert back to that, it doesn't need an AfD (particularly given that the creator was banned, the article is a hoax, and is wholly unsourced). It would be speedily deletable as either a G3 or A11; it would have been a G5 if it were a new page. So there's no reason for us to be going through an entire AfD discussion for this. ⇒SWATJester Shoot Blues, Tell VileRat! 01:48, 2 July 2026 (UTC)
  • Revert to prior version per Swatjester. Xeniades (talk) 01:51, 2 July 2026 (UTC)
  • Note: this discussion has been included in the list of United States of America-related AfD discussions. Deltaspace42 (talk • contribs) 11:33, 2 July 2026 (UTC)
  • Comment I'm find with restoring the disambig so long as this page goes away. Simply reverting to the disambig doesn't seem to do this (although it might...this is my first time through this process). The article was created in 2008, and the disambig appears to date from 2024.

    I'm not sure what you're looking at. The article was *created* as a disambig back in 2008.⇒SWATJester Shoot Blues, Tell VileRat! 15:12, 2 July 2026 (UTC)
    The link you had initially went to the 2024 disambig. That's what I looked at. Looks like an IP added all the hoax stuff on 1 Jul 2026 (and planted the stuff in the MACV-SOG article, which is where I spotted it in the first place). If no one objects, I'd move we close this as a "my bad" and I can revert it to the previous version (which was a simple disambig. Intothatdarkness 15:48, 2 July 2026 (UTC)
