Help pages have existed on Wowpedia for almost two decades, majority of which are out-of-date or features elements from previous versions of MediaWiki that are no longer a thing. There is no reason for us to continue to maintain / update them especially when there are better sources that keeps these documentations up-to-date like MediaWiki.org or even Fandom's Community Central.
This vote is about deleting most of the Help pages from Wowpedia that concern how to use MediaWiki, etc. Some exceptions like Help:DefaultLinks and Help:UsingData will not be deleted as these are Wowpedia-specific (let alone, useful documentation for other wikis that use our extensions).

To clarify, this is just deleting the pages in the "Help" namespace and not any of the ones in this category in the "Wowpedia" namespace, correct? -- Dark T Zeratul (talk) 22:09, 10 May 2023 (UTC)
- Correct. This vote only targets help pages regarding MediaWiki in some way. Stuff like the boilerplates, extension help pages, Help:Gadgets, Help:Tooltips, etc. are being kept. Some help pages like Help:Voting would be better redirected to the sections of a policy page like Wowpedia:Voting policy. If I need to make a list of all the Help pages that this vote is for, I can. — Surafbrov T / C 22:13, 10 May 2023 (UTC)
