Spam userpage, violation of WP:NOTWEBHOST. Eagles 24/7 (C) 19:13, 27 June 2010 (UTC)
- Delete I agree. ~~ Hi878 (Come yell at me!) 19:14, 27 June 2010 (UTC)
- Keep or move to sandbox. Spam, it is not. Collect (talk) 22:23, 27 June 2010 (UTC)
- This user previously created the page IWiz Web episodes, which looked almost exactly the same as this userpage. The "show" is from this user's webspace at webs.com. Eagles 24/7 (C) 01:35, 28 June 2010 (UTC)
- Delete per WP:NOTWEBHOST and per WP:FAKEARTICLE, which says "While userpages and subpages can be used as a development ground for generating new content, this space is not intended to indefinitely archive your preferred version of disputed or previously deleted content or indefinitely archive permanent content that is meant to be part of the encyclopedia. Wikipedia is not a free web host and private copies of pages that are being used solely for long-term archival purposes may be subject to deletion." (mine emphasized) That the user created IWiz Web episodes is indicative of the user's intention to promote his/her webspace at webs.com. Cunard (talk) 06:48, 28 June 2010 (UTC)
Move to Sandbox.Acather96 (talk) 17:57, 28 June 2010 (UTC)
- I oppose moving this userpage to the sandbox because this would still not rectify the fact that this content violates WP:NOTWEBHOST and WP:FAKEARTICLE. This page is not being used for testing; it is being used for promotion. Cunard (talk) 05:39, 29 June 2010 (UTC)
Delete per Cunard's convincing argument :)Acather96 (talk) 06:26, 29 June 2010 (UTC)
- Delete As a fake article, and per the deleted articles, it does look like this is spam. It certainly violates WP:UP. Johnuniq (talk) 08:26, 29 June 2010 (UTC)
- Delete. This sort of page is not uncommonly brought here. Recommend blanking such pages on sight, with reference to WP:NOTWEBHOST; this usually works fine for the naive user, and saves the need for a formal discussion. Try to save MfD for serious problems or where the user is obstinate. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 23:08, 29 June 2010 (UTC)
- Delete - I am usually rather reluctant to !voting oppose in these MfDs, but I must admit that Cunard's argument applies here. Kayau Voting IS evil 11:14, 1 July 2010 (UTC)
- Delete per WP:UP and WP:FAKEARTICLE as has been said above. -- elektrikSHOOS 02:02, 4 July 2010 (UTC)
- Delete as per the policies already cited. So far, these are the only "contributions" to the encyclopaedia by this editor that haven't been deleted, reverted or nominated for speedy deletion. --AussieLegend (talk) 23:36, 4 July 2010 (UTC)
