This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Behavioural science. 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:
- Edit this page 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.
- You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Behavioural science|~~~~}} 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 Behavioural science. 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.

Possibly the article fails WP:NOR and does not comply with WP:MOS or even possibly made up by the creator. Vitaium (talk) 14:00, 26 June 2023 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Animal, Science, Behavioural science, Biology, and Organisms. Vitaium (talk) 14:00, 26 June 2023 (UTC)
- Delete - random examples plucked from the articles coyly listed under "further information" at the head of the first paragraph (Mating, Mating system, Courtship display) and elsewhere. Author apparently intended to "incorporate the content from 'Dating'" [1], which they thankfully do not seem to have gotten around to. I very much doubt we need a combined duplication of Dating, Courtship, and Mating system. --Elmidae (talk · contribs) 14:48, 26 June 2023 (UTC)
- Redirect to courtship display as a valid search term. Agree that there is no need for this article, which has many issues, and the topic is much better covered by the proposed target. -- Patar knight - chat/contributions 00:04, 28 June 2023 (UTC)
- Redirect To courtship display per Patar knight. Just based on the title it's hard to see how this is not a duplicate topic. --Licks-rocks (talk) 11:45, 29 June 2023 (UTC)
- The above discussion is preserved as an archive of the debate. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.
