==== G4. Recreation of a page that was deleted per a deletion discussion ====

{{Shortcut|WP:G4}}

This applies to sufficiently identical copies, having any title, of a page deleted via its most recent [[Wikipedia:Deletion discussions|deletion discussion]].<ref> The result of the most recent deletion discussion controls. This means that if the most recent discussion was "keep" or a default to keep through no consensus, G4 does not apply. Likewise, an article that was deleted through its most recent discussion, but was kept in earlier discussions, is subject to the criterion and may be deleted. ([[Wikipedia talk:Criteria for speedy deletion/Archive 44#Is CSD G4 applicable or inapplicable to a previously kept page whose most recent discussion ended in deletion?|Discussion]].)</ref> It excludes pages that are {{em|not}} substantially identical to the deleted version, and pages to which the reason for the deletion no longer applies. It excludes userspace and draftspace pages where the content was [[Wikipedia:Userfication|moved to user space]] or [[WP:DRAFTS|converted to a draft]], forunless explicita improvementuser (butconduct notdiscussion simplyhas found that such a move was to circumvent Wikipedia's [[Wikipedia:Deletion policy|deletion policy]]). This criterion also does not cover content undeleted via a [[Wikipedia:Deletion review|deletion review]], or that was only deleted via [[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|proposed deletion]] (including deletion discussions closed as [[WP:SOFTDELETE|"soft delete"]]) or speedy deletion.
