The result of the discussion was Delete. -- Cirt (talk) 21:40, 30 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This userspace draft was nominated for deletion at Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/User:Tkguy/Asian fetish in September 2009. It was subsequently deleted but then restored by the deleting admin after Tkguy (talk · contribs) had a discussion with him.

WP:FAKEARTICLE states: "Userspace is not a free web host and should not be used to indefinitely host pages that look like articles, old revisions, or deleted content, or your preferred version of disputed content. Private copies of pages that are being used solely for long-term archival purposes may be subject to deletion."

The userspace draft has not been edited since September 2009 and appears to be a "preferred version of disputed content" (see the history of Asian fetish). Tkguy (talk · contribs) has not edited since December 2009.

Because this page violates WP:NOTWEBHOST and WP:FAKEARTICLE, it should be deleted. Cunard (talk) 06:39, 23 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Please note this is one of two MFD discussions for similar userspace articles. The other discussion is at Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/User:Tkguy/Asiaphile (2nd nomination). --Marc Kupper|talk 11:04, 23 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]


Delete per nom - I looked over the previous AFD discussion that resulted in delete, a discussion with the closing admin which resulted the page being restored, the edit history for the user page which shows two edits since restoration, and the user's overall edit history. WP:EM is important to me which leaves me feeling frustrated. If closed as delete and the editor asks that the user page be restored again I suspect it would be better to have him work on improving the mainspace Asian fetish article. --Marc Kupper|talk 11:04, 23 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete To be honest, I came very close to speedying both of these just now. Actually had the deletion page open on one of them, with mouse hovering over the delete button. The rationale was going to be Speedy deleted, per WP:NOT#A place to play people for suckers. Undeleted based on belief that author was going to edit them again soon. He didn't.

    Then I chickened out because someone in their infinite wisdom would probably have taken it to DRV, and I just don't have the appetite for that. I would strongly support any admin with more backbone than me speedying this, for violating the spirit (if not the letter) of CSD#G4, or IAR, or something. If not, then delete per WP:UP#COPIES. --Floquenbeam (talk) 01:35, 24 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
