Another page in the same line as Misplaced Pages:Miscellany for deletion/User:Verne2000 or Misplaced Pages:Miscellany_for_deletion/User:Luathos. WP:NOTWEBHOST and WP:FAKEARTICLE concerns Ca2james (talk) 19:26, 21 December 2014 (UTC)

  • ABSOULETLY, totally Keep - This is my page; I don't understand why that after SIX YEARS that all of a sudden a random nobody wants to shut my page down. I have had lists on my page for years. Aren't there more important issues to tackle, in regards to vandalizers to pages, besides my page that is absolutely no burden. This is NOT an article; no harm is being done to anybody except yourselves. TONS of other users from WikiProject: Oldest People have lists of the oldest people in the world on their page. I don't care about how high you rank (whether general or private) on Misplaced Pages; worry about yourself, pal. It is a website with information about older people, not a Hit List. Leave us fantastic contributors to the Oldest people articles alone. Thank you. --Nick Ornstein (talk) 21:07, 22 December 2014 (UTC)
This was one of many other pages in userspace that contain content that violates WP:NOTWEBHOST. We aren't allowed to keep whatever we want; there are guidelines about what's acceptable on userpages over at WP:USERPAGE. Ca2james (talk) 02:44, 24 December 2014 (UTC)
  • Strong Keep It's quite clear from the giant notice at the top of the user page that it is not a real article, so WP:FAKEARTICLE does not apply. It's also clear that the users proposing these changes have a vendetta against the several users who are interested in developing articles on human longevity. WP:POINT states that people should use common sense and not disrupt Misplaced Pages to make a point - and this is exactly what is being done by the desructive attitude against people's userpages. WP:USER states that they can be used for "organizing and aiding the work users do on Misplaced Pages", which is precisely what this page does. Secondly, the nominator has not used correct procedure since they have not been advised first on the talk page as stated by WP:USER. This appears to be a personal vendetta to me and I would refer the above users to WP:EQ to learn more about the principles of Misplaced Pages etiquette.
