Forked article in main article namespace. -- Curps 06:24, 27 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
So... am I supposed to move it to my own space, like this: Dabljuh/Circumcision/Dabljuhs_version? It started out as a kind of sandbox to allow constructive editing of the Circumcision article as a whole, without every tiny change being immediately reverted by POV warriors. Since most of the article is now in the main article, I don't think it is really necessary anymore. What's interesting however is that you didn't AfD Circumcision/Old_version as well, despite both of them almost always being linked to at the same time for comparison.

- Speedy delete per Curps. Ruby 15:18, 27 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Move' to User:Dabljuh/Circumcision or somesuch. "Old version" wasn't as important to AfD because its name implies that it was consensus building version. Yours is exclusively yours. User specific versions don't belong in the article space whereas community rewrites and old versions arguably do for a period of time. gren グレン ? 17:08, 27 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- You're an idiot. Seriously. A consensus version? vs MY version? Don't talk about things that you don't know the first thing about. I've done a 'rewrite' in the main space to invite other users to help overhauling the article, a community effort so to speak, and the old version wasn't as much a consensus version as it was a POV piece forced to stay in place by a small troupe of POV pushers. The current mainspace version is a slightly edited variant of my version, should give you an Idea about what version is POV.
- Anyhow, I don't see much sense in keeping either version around, the Old version can be viewed in the main article's history, and my version makes up 90% of the main article now. Dabljuh 11:44, 31 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Userfy or Speedy this POV fork. Tomertalk 22:52, 27 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete and move POV fork. I see that Dabljuh has created User:Dabljuh/My Circumcision with a copy of the article. Could an admin fix this so that the page history is preserved? Jakew 13:22, 31 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- It could just be moved to a different name in my userspace. I made that backup so not everything is lost when some hyperactive admin does something dumb too early. Dabljuh 21:23, 31 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
