Why is this in the main namespace?[[edit source]]

Why is this in the main namespace? It seems like it should be in the Tardis namespace. Bongo50 (aka Bongolium500) โ˜Ž 09:43, 2 May 2021 (UTC)

I'm not sure either but this page was created by User:CzechOut, who I presume knows what he's doing when it comes to technical matters. Feel free to drop him a message on his talk page, but I shan't condone deleting this page without hearing from him, or from someone else who knew what he was thinking. For what it's worth, I guess the page is (was?) necessary in the main namespace because it serves(/served?) to test whether certain features worked, and these features may well have encountered problems in the main namespace that wouldn't exist in other namespaces, thus making a test held anywhere but in the main namespace useless.

OK, makes sense. I just thought it was odd. Bongo50 (aka Bongolium500) โ˜Ž 11:53, 2 May 2021 (UTC)
Two years later and it still has no use, nor have we had word from @CzechOut. Can this be deleted already? 20:10, 24 December 2023 (UTC)
It definitely shouldn't be deleted. It might need to be moved, and then we can move it back in the future. Najawin โ˜Ž 20:40, 24 December 2023 (UTC)
Tbf pages can be undeleted with ease, and this page contains no unique code either, it's just the lead of Jack Harkness with an image of the Twelfth Doctor in the infobox. It serves no current purpose and its sole editor has never elaborated on why they created it โ€” we would not extend the existence of such a page if some other random user created it in the main namespace for "testing reasons", it would immediately be moved to the user namespace. 21:24, 24 December 2023 (UTC)
I've asked Czech directly about this page through Discord as I've seen him online there recently. I'm not really expecting a response anytime soon due to the time of year but, as and when I get one, I'll let you know. Bongo50 โ˜Ž 22:03, 24 December 2023 (UTC)
It's been deleted (by CzechOut)! Bongo50 โ˜Ž 19:48, 2 January 2024 (UTC)

Why is infobox funky? It has "Infobox Test" ad the 12th doctor there. (Captain Flowers โ˜Ž 11:44, 22 March 2023 (UTC))

Ok sorry, just realized it's article title is called "Infobox Test". I just typed in Jack Harkness in google and it brought me here, sorry for the confusion! This all can be deleted to clear space. (Captain Flowers โ˜Ž 11:45, 22 March 2023 (UTC))
