When a minifig comes up in a set it is added to the catalogue.

  Why are some of them are marked for deletion?

There are currently (as of writing this message) 88 minifigs marked for deletion.
The additional notes of each minifig catalogue entry will give the reason why
that such minifig is marked for deletion.

Thanks.

But not on all of them they say why.

It should be safe to assume that there is an error with the catalog entry for
that fig and there's likely a correct version of the fig in the catalog.

Otherwise, provide some examples.

  But not on all of them they say why.

Minifigure arc010

That minifigure probably never appeared in any set in that configuration of parts.

Cheers,

Minifigure arc010

Basically it's
 
Minifig No: arc002  Name: Arctic - Black, Black Hood, Backpack
* 
arc002 (Inv) Arctic - Black, Black Hood, Backpack
Minifigures: Town: Arctic
sans backpack.
I suppose this Figure got added as alternate but actually did not appear in the
set in this style.

Why are some of them are marked for deletion?

Most of the minifigures currently marked for deletion have been that way for
years, some for many years. However, this fact became much more noticeable recently
when I added MARKED FOR DELETION to their titles.

Most of them were marked for deletion because they did not meet inventory standards:

https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=200

The figures marked for deletion don't need to be added to the catalog again
because the majority of them (actually, probably all of them) were already added
again with correct photos/inventories according to inventory standards.

Ok, thank you very much for the explanation. But actually writing in the titles
"Marked for Deletion" should be allowed only for Admin. But that's just my
opinion.

Sorry I didn't see he's an Admin. I didn't mean it that way. So if
marking for deletion is allowed only for Admin that's ok so. I thought that
everybody can mark it like that. Thank you all very much for your help and explanation,
I really appreciate it.

Sorry too, I put it a bit rudely… maybe should have added a smiley or something



   So if
marking for deletion is allowed only for Admin that's ok so. I thought that
everybody can mark it like that. Thank you all very much for your help and explanation,
I really appreciate it.

Anybody can ask whatever but only admins can accept or decline requests. Otherwise,
it would be a fine mess
So, if something was done, it was obligatory done by an admin. And admins usually
don’t do anything stupid.

The catalogue has some inconsistencies but they are worked upon. And, without
discrediting the other admins, StormChaser is cleaning tornado.

As you can see with these minifigs, a lot have been marked for deletion without
anyone doing anything about them (like sellers keeping selling them while they
shouldn’t). Just putting that big mark should (and already has) wake(n) them
up.

check who give the answer. It was my fault
