This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Sweden. 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. 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|Sweden|~~~~}} 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 Sweden. 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 Europe.

Almost no content, not notable, cites no sources. Renerpho (talk) 14:35, 5 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Procedural Keep Too many articles, I suggest renominate them and seperate them by country (or in case of the belgian one, probably by 10 years). I don't want to even close this article as XFDCloser will bugged with this many articles listed. Warm Regards, Miminity (Talk?) (me contribs) 10:14, 6 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    @Miminity and Reywas92: Alright -- how do I do this? I only find explanations for how to bundle AfD's (and suggestions to do so for similar topics, which is why I did so here), but not how to split them. Renerpho (talk) 15:30, 6 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Create a new AFD for 1956 in Estonian television, etc., then put an updated tag on each of the articles pointing to that page. Same procedure, it's not actually a split. Reywas92Talk 15:40, 6 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    @Renerpho And I am begging you not to nominate various years at the same time, please. I or other users can improve them but only with time. Please rather consider Draftifying them boldly or improving them little by little. They CAN be improved. The only year I checked (for Belgium) WAS (very) notable. And, unless I am mistaken, you cannot possibly have performed a reasonably thorough BEFORE for all those years. -Mushy Yank. 20:20, 6 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    To the one that will close this, you have my best cheers. XFDCloser will bugged out with this one. Warm Regards, Miminity (Talk?) (me contribs) 14:07, 7 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: 1) for navigational reasons; part of a whole; deleting this would be disruptive and confusing (inviting to recreate 1974 for example) 2) this year is, on top of that, particularly notable in Belgian television!!! See page. Has a BEFORE been performed? -Mushy Yank. 20:06, 6 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    The comment above is about 1982 in Belgian television, which I just finished improving and realised it was an hyper-bundled nom after having !voted via the script.. Doing the same for all these innumerous pages is simply IMPOSSIBLE and not reasonably expectable of willing users. Very STRONG PROCEDURAL KEEP bordering speedy. This is absolutely not manageable. -Mushy Yank. 20:09, 6 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Estonia, Norway, and Sweden. -Mushy Yank. 20:23, 6 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. This AfD flies against the orthodox practice of Wikipedia to list all the years of television of various countries. desmay (talk) 14:40, 7 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    The navbox for 1966 only has pages for 16 countries, absurd to suggest that these pages are entitled to exist as pointless empty shells just because others do. Reywas92Talk 14:48, 7 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep For the years that only have one item, you can merge them to decade lists instead of year by year list. As for references, you click on the link to the article and can see what year and country its from. If you want to copy over references from there, to a list article, do so on your own, that is no reason to delete a list article. Dream Focus 23:56, 7 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
