:The "has not seen any use" bit is something I usually add to articles if it hasn't been edited, but there is no guideline on it. AIgen is shown to me partly because loads of info was suddenly added. I do have to admit though that it doesn't make much sense and if nothing happens to it in a year or 2 maybe it'll get deleted then? I'll remove the deletionreq.

::Not quite sure I understand what you are saying. I thought the goal of the wiki was to have a reference. Unfortunately, that entails a necessary evil of having to write/edit articles. If an article is good enough that it hasn't required editing in months or years, isn't that a good thing? (Not saying the article is great, but once something is sort of okay, editors might focus on more skeletal articles vs. polishing something that has the basics.) | ::Not quite sure I understand what you are saying.

::Is there something undesirable about writing something offline, and then adding it? I have been drafting a few things locally, it didn't occur to me that there would be anything suspicious or bad about crafting in private and then releasing what would look sudden to others. Please help me understand.

:::I’ll simplify it to this: My reasons for adding a deletion request were overall pretty stupid. [[User:AnotherConsumerRightsPerson|<i><b>AnotherConsumerRightsPerson</b></i>]] ([[User talk:AnotherConsumerRightsPerson|talk]]) 19:04, 6 November 2025 (UTC) | |||

:The AI notice is primarily for quality control - whether it means the references haven't been vetted, or the content hasn't been vetted, or even if the content itself is too "AI-sounding" that it can deter readers. It's a great notice to have because it means the content is still relevant but may require editing to be up to quality standards.

:::Thank you @[[User:AnotherConsumerRightsPerson]]. If the visual editor could present a short list of a few typical reasons why the tag might be added, with a checkbox for each. That might give an easy way for the tagger to provide more helpful information to other editors. (I am thinking things like "wordy" (or "omit needless words"), "repetitive" (for says same thing over and over), "jargon" (or "overly technical"), "fact check". Those are just what comes to my mind, pick whatever sins of AI/poor writing you see commonly.) | :::Thank you @[[User:AnotherConsumerRightsPerson]].
