Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/User talk:HistoryBuffEr/Archived-Sermons

User talk:HistoryBuffEr/Archived-Sermons was proposed for deletion. This page is an archive of the discussion about the proposed deletion. This page is no longer live. Further comments should be made on the article's talk page rather than here so that this page is preserved as an historic record. The result of the debate was keep

Inappropriate user page. The user archives any critical remarks and newcomer guidance to this page in violation of Talk etiquette. The user was notified that this is a violation and moved the notification to this page. The user continues to engage in uncivil behavior and other etiquette/policy violations, and his summary rejection of criticism makes any progress on these problems impossible. Delete.

 * Keep. No cause for deletion, which is not the proper solution anyway. &#8212;No-One Jones (m) 05:00, 29 Sep 2004 (UTC)


 * Priceless: Gazpacho is trying to dictate to me how to maintain MY own user page.
 * From Talk etiquette: "Most users do archive their talk pages periodically to a personal subpage". HistoryBuffEr 05:53, 2004 Sep 29 (UTC)


 * Keep. No matter how improperly the user might be behaving, it is a user page, and I think it's a good general policy to consider those, except in very special circumstances, to be sacrosanct. If he starts attributing quotes to people they didn't say, for example, then we'd have something to talk about. Archiving isn't worth getting involved. --Improv 12:42, 29 Sep 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep Please do not list user pages or sub-pages here unless there is an extremely good reason to do so.  This page has no policy or guideline violations at all that I can see.   The Steve  15:11, Sep 29, 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep. User pages are not "sacrosanct" according to any written policy or applied policy. They are simply given a wider latitute than an article, the same as article discussion pages are. But they have been deleted here before. But I see no reason to delete the page because the editor is breaking other policies. Jallan 00:45, 30 Sep 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep - it's a user talk archive, much like the 5 that I keep and many other users. -- Graham &#9786; | Talk 12:06, 30 Sep 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep - no violation of Wikipedia policy. Jayjg 06:21, 3 Oct 2004 (UTC)

 * Whilst there is certainly a clear consensus to keep here, and the page will be kept, Votes For Deletion do not "expire" after 5 days. They are guaranteed to remain for five days, but it is up to an admin to determine consensus and action it. As Votes for deletion/Old puts it: "You can still add your votes to these listings if you feel strongly, but please be aware that once an article listing is on this page it can be deleted or removed from the list at any time." &mdash;Stormie 04:03, Oct 5, 2004 (UTC)
