  • Delete with haste blatant WP:POINT. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Otters want attention) 00:45, 21 November 2010 (UTC) Delete anyway despite clearly not being Kurt-related this serves no purpose even in userspace.

  • This is not related to the Kmweber page. It in fact comes from Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/List of songs by name, as indeed the top of the page hints at. It was clearly never Gareth Owen's intention for this to be an article. Indeed, the point, that seems to be being missed above, is that it's incomplete and contains only a handful of entries. I suggest reading the aforelinked VFD discussion. There's no threat of this being an article. Indeed, I strongly suggest contrasting what Gareth Owen says with what Kmweber has said many times over, including at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Robert J. Hurst. There's a vast gulf here, and the two user sub-pages have very different purposes behind them, and should not be treated equivalently. Uncle G (talk) 01:41, 21 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Tag with {{User essay}} - It seem to be a user essay providing commentary on efforts to include in Wikipedia lists that likely will be in a perpetual, incomplete status. -- Uzma Gamal (talk) 00:59, 22 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • If so, it needs to be clearer. Essays should be informative, not riddles. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 10:58, 27 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Violates nothing specific for userspace - short, no attacking, does not harm WP, does not spam or have any commerical content, does not have objectionable material in it. And so on. Collect (talk) 17:24, 22 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
