- so why not redirect? --SmokeyJoe (talk) 01:22, 13 April 2016 (UTC)
- Delete per nom - redirecting to mainspace is completely pointless .......... If it was an article then great however it's someone subpage..... better off deleted. –Davey2010Talk 03:25, 13 April 2016 (UTC)
- It was a good and proper draft, even suitable for mainspace (if it was a WP:UP#COPIES I haven't checked). The author was a productive Wikipedian. Deletion carries the implication that the user needs his userspace managed by others, which is rude, insulting and alienating for him to discover when he returns. Deleted, and he has to beg for a WP:REFUND merely to review his old work. There is no actual reason to delete. These are reasons not to delete.
- It could be blanked with reference to Privacy_concerns_regarding_Google#Scroogle, or converted to a redirect to Privacy_concerns_regarding_Google#Scroogle. I have little preference for one over the other. Both inform the author, on his return, where the current state of coverage of this topic is to be found. This is more than sufficient reason for a redirect. Most userspace drafts are turned into userspace -> mainspace redirects when the user WP:MOVEs them.
- What are the alleged advantages of deletion of this page? --SmokeyJoe (talk) 03:43, 13 April 2016 (UTC)
