Revision as of 00:40, 25 January 2010
There is no reason for this template to exist as only two people would ever have it (legitimately) on their userpage: User:Jimbo Wales and User:Larry Sanger. Anyone else who places it on their userpage is doing so to be disruptive or to blatantly mislead people who may not know any better. As the template can only be used legitimately in two places, it should be deleted. --···日本穣? · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe 00:18, 25 January 2010 (UTC)
- Agree. I see it is used on two user pages, where it should not be used. However, the transcluded text can be left on Jimbo's user page. --Bduke (Discussion) 00:26, 25 January 2010 (UTC)
- Three userpages, in fact: User:Threeafterthree, User:Zengar Zombolt, and User:DZ987. I agree that transcluding it to Jimbo's page would be best. If Larry ever stops by again and wants to use it, he can copy it from there. ···日本穣? · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe 00:35, 25 January 2010 (UTC)
- Delete. I agree with Nihonjoe; we don't need to provide an automated method for users to make a false claim that they have founded Wikipedia. The template contents can be substed on User:Jimbo Wales, with credit to template creator User:Footyfanatic3000, but all other current uses of this template are inappropriate. — Gavia immer (talk) 00:31, 25 January 2010 (UTC)
- Strong Keep. This is a WP:POINT nomination to remove the box from my userpage against the consensus of previous discussion.DaiZengarSmite evil 00:40, 25 January 2010 (UTC)
