User:Voldemore

Personal essay. It is inappropriate in terms of layout and content to be used as a wikipedia page. Also nominating all pages found in Special:PrefixIndex/User:Voldemore. Ironho lds 23:05, 17 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Plenty of people have a "personal essay" on their userpage and on their subpages. Nothing inappropriate at all. Don't single me out. This is ridiculous. -- Voldemore (talk) 23:44, 17 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It's not singling you out, if you look at my edit history you'll see that I spend half my time chasing up pages like that. And yes, plenty of people HAVE got them on their userpages; I classify these people as "users I haven't met". Wikipedia policy states that personal essays are acceptable if related to wikipedia editing/policy/culture, which these are not. Ironho lds 23:50, 17 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete all, I'm afraid. These pages could be kept if there was any hope that they might make it into Wikipedia articles, but in almost all cases, Wikipedia already has articles on these subjects - and they are written in an encyclopaedic manner, whereas these articles are written from a fannish, in-universe point of view. I suggest the user works on improving our existing articles on these subjects rather than creating his own. Terraxos (talk) 00:12, 18 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep all, this whole thing seems to be based on Ironhold's PERSONAL OPINION on what is or isn't appropriate for a userpage and a sub-userpage and Ironhold's PERSONAL OPINION on what constitutes a personal essay. Screw that. Ironhold, Wikipedia is not based on your opinions. -- Thefreemarket (talk) —Preceding comment was added at 00:17, 18 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Userpage/Delete All Subpages. The userpage itself doesn't appear to break any rules, though it does seem rather long. The subpages, however, are problematic. Several (I'll admit I didn't go through all the subpages, but scanned through about half of them randomly) seem to violate the spirit of Wikipedia:USER#Copies_of_other_pages. Obvious examples of this are User:Voldemore/Jack Bauer and User:Voldemore/Jason Bourne. Is there a point to all those subpages? 5:15 00:30, 18 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Userpage/Keep Subpages. From what I can see they are NOT copies of other pages at all, but simply based other subjects. Not harming anything or violating any rules. -- Crevaner (talk) 00:50, 18 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
