More WP:FAKEARTICLE or WP:NOTWEBHOST concerns with these "oldest people" lists in userspace, similar to Misplaced Pages:Miscellany for deletion/User:NickOrnstein and Misplaced Pages:Miscellany for deletion/User:Verne2000. Ca2james (talk) 15:40, 22 December 2014 (UTC)

Exactly. It just goes to show how useful these userspace lists have been in developing many of the reliably sourced articles in Misplaced Pages today (you're welcome). These pages were used as a base to create several articles, and many of the other userspace articles are pages that are being developed. As for the lack of reliable sources, well there are many reliable sources that can be cited. Unfortunately, it seems that many editors are not interested in constructively improving articles by adding sources - but rather interested in destructive editing by mass deletion. Here are your many reliable sources, which could have been added, even by yourself: . There is no particular need for these sections of my page anymore, but the destructive attitude against a multitude of editors who have contributed to dozens of articles is against WP:POINT - "Do not disrupt Misplaced Pages to illustrate a point".

  • Totally, COMPLETELY KEEP ALL - As per SiameseTurtle; all of his defending statements apply to Misplaced Pages's 'Founding Fathers' Guidelines', such as "WP:USER states that they can be used for "organizing and aiding the work users do on Misplaced Pages"". The lists I have on my page are in relation to Oldest people and the rules state that as long as information on my page relates to articles on this website than it is permitted. Nick Ornstein (talk) 01:38, 24 December 2014 (UTC)
  • Delete. WP:WEBHOST. If editors want to make up their own lists, they can do it somewhere else. If they want to work on names for the articles, they should be directed to Misplaced Pages:WikiProject World's Oldest People/Future supercentenarians or wherever else the project for this is doing it. There needs to be a central location for all this. There is zero purpose to have user versions of lists other than to create their own forks of the material. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 05:33, 24 December 2014 (UTC)
