User:Drscottesims (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Biographical (and rather hagiographic) article created by somebody whose only edit this was, clearly intended to look like a Wikipedia article. This is not what userspace is for. Since its creation, it has been vandalized at least once, and has had uncomplimentary information (or disinformation) added to it at least once. -- Hoary (talk) 10:22, 19 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Self-promotional pseudo article by someone who has shown no interest at all in contributing to the encyclopaedia in the three years since the account was created. This is not what a user page is for. JamesBWatson (talk) 12:39, 19 July 2011 (UTC)
  • Indeed. Can't we speedy this as promotional? Drmies (talk) 19:16, 19 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. I too was tempted to be bold and zap it. No objection if anyone else were to do so. -- Hoary (talk) 23:34, 19 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Update Another IP added the same (mis)info, only part of which is provided by the cited source, and whose addition to a user page is odd to say the least. I suggest quick deletion by snowstorm. -- Hoary (talk) 02:17, 20 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Well, I've deleted it per all above. Unfortunately, while one of the geeks in Boston (thanks The Ed17!) supposedly put a thingy in my thingies so I could easily close XfDs, them thingies don't seem to be working, and I really don't want to learn how to close this thing right now. Hoary, got a button you can push? Drmies (talk) 05:26, 20 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
