Deleted purely because of Page's title Not an anon anymore!!!! Yeah!!!! 16:24, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
- ...And this is DRVed because you didn't like the obvious delete conclusion. Endorse deletion. —Kurykh 16:58, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
Comment, It was deleted because you wanted it to be a Wikiproject. Instead, restore the page and move it so it will be a DoF game instead. Marlith T/C 17:00, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
Comment, Good Idea Marlith, I think I'll do that if it gets recreated. Not an anon anymore!!!! Yeah!!!! 17:06, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
- Endorse deletion, valid MFD, project promoted the creation of nonsense pages and pretty much amounts to trolling. --Coredesat 20:21, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
- Endorse deletion. The outcome of the MfD was unambiguous. In response to this comment by the nominator, wherein s/he states that "all I want is to be the founder of some Wikipedia Community", I ask that s/he review the "Wikipedia is not a social networking site" and "Wikipedia is not a bureaucracy" provisions of the What Wikipedia is not policy. — Black Falcon (Talk) 20:44, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
Category:Wikipedians by generation and subcats
- Category:Wikipedians by generation (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs) (restore|cache|UCFD)
- This was a group nom. There were several well-though-out comments in the discussion. Half the commenters suggested that though some of the categories should be deleted, other categories of this group nom should not be. This should probably have been relisted as two or more separate nominations (at least ages and generations) for clarity in determining consensus. - jc37 11:36, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
- Note, this nom includes:
- Category:Baby boomer Wikipedians
- Category:Generation Y Wikipedians
- Category:Generation X Wikipedians
- Category:MTV Generation Wikipedians
- Category:IGeneration Wikipedians
- Category:Wikipedians in their 20s
- Category:Wikipedians in their 30s
- Category:Wikipedians in their 40s
- Category:Wikipedians in their 60s
- Category:Wikipedians in their 50s
- Category:Wikipedians in their teens
- Category:Wikipedians in their 90s
- Category:Cold Generation Y Wikipedians
- Overturn and relist as at least 2 separate nominations. - as nominator. - jc37 11:36, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
- Endorse self - This was one grouping of age based categories. More than half of the users chose to delete all of them, so for those persons there is no lack of clarity. Of the 4 users who users chose to comment on them in 2 separate subgroups, only 1 was in favor of keeping the "Generational" categories. So either way that you look at it, this subgroup of categories was delete. For the "Wikipedians in..." categories, there were some arguments in support of keeping these, but I found Black Falcon's and Haemo's arguments to be more convincing. For that subgroup, if you "count votes" it was 6-3 delete, so between both the numbers and the strength of the arguments, I think that deletion of these is also appropriate. --After Midnight 0001 12:47, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
- Endorse closure. Attempting to establish a connection between age and interest would involve blatant and inaccurate stereotyping. Attempting to establish a connection between age and access to sources involves dealing with the inefficient "hit-and-miss" approach of contacting users in a specific age group to see if they have access to a particular source (You were born in 50s ... have any sources from back then?). Neither one of these issue was addressed by those arguing to keep the categories. In addition, although there were references to correcting systemic bias, it was never made clear what relation these categories have to systemic bias. — Black Falcon (Talk) 19:36, 5 August 2007 (UTC)

- List at AFD - Has enough to deserve a run through. But this website has essentially petered out, it's by no means a success. - hahnchen 10:34, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
- Overturn protection, clearly a notable startup in 2000 although Alexa shows it never even had significant traffic. Notability does not expire. If the original was not sourced recreating a new sourced article should be acceptable. --Dhartung | Talk 13:25, 5 August 2007 (UTC)

User:Selfworm/VandalizeMe (closed)

| The following is an archived debate of the deletion review of the article above. Please do not modify it. |
I created many months ago the user-space page User:Selfworm/VandalizeMe and transcluded it into my main page with a show/hide option that was hidden by default for the purposes of
This user page was deleted without warning by the administrator Ryulong and the explanation that was given was "Seriously, vandalism only page". When asked about the reason for deleting the user page he responded that "It doesn't really do much for the encyclopedia." When asked to show that deleting user pages that don't "really do much for the encyclopedia" was Wikipedia policy, he ignored this request and changed his defense to the new claim that the page fell under the category of patent nonsense. I rebutted that "Vandalism is not necessarily the same thing as patent nonsense and not all patent nonsense is vandalism" and that this page was one of the exceptions; he did not respond to this rebuttal. The conversation between myself and Ryulong can be viewed here. Another conversation on this matter between myself and the administrator Pax:Vobiscum can be viewed here and here (under the heading of Speedy deletion).
