Adding WP:G8 tags to pages that haven't been deleted just yet?

Hi Solidest,

While your contributions, especially in the work of tagging userspace sandboxing that will most always end up as speedy deletion, perhaps it might be preferable to wait until they have actually been deleted and/or the users blocked?

Examples:

I guess the tagging may well be eminently and commendably prescient work on your part - that said, it would appear to me little bit WP:BITE-y if you don't let those new userspace sandboxing will most always end up as speedy deletion users know what they are doing wrong.

On reflection: in *your* defence, tell me why all those WP:G8 tags were right. I can see a good case for them.

Hi. I've been primarily clearing the music genre project of pages that have nothing to do with its scope. Where it made sense, I deleted the project template. But all I nominated were discussion pages to empty sandboxes. Some of them have been like this since mid 2022. I think in these cases it makes more sense to completely remove the discussion pages along with the links to the projects, than to just remove the project templates and leave an empty sandbox and an empty discussion page like this. I doubt that under current conditions anyone would need to discuss <emptiness>, let alone link it to projects. And if suddenly content appears in sandboxes again, most likely it will be other projects and they can be refilled once again. P.S. User from link #4 is blocked since February 2023.
