User:Abyssal/List of alleged UFO-related entities
Unexplained copy of a previous version of an article in the encyclopedia. Editor said that they wouldn't edit the article, but we are not supposed to have alternate versions in our userspace unless we plan on sandboxing them. I believe the user does not plan to sandbox this article since their last comment was that they would no longer be editing the article. ScienceApologist (talk) 23:51, 24 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep I do not recall that having an "unexplained copy" of anything was important. That you have a belief the user does not intend to sandbox the material is of how much importance? And you knew all this within 20 minutes? The page existed for all of 20 minutes before you felt that it was not going to be sandboxed and asked for it to be deleted? Isn't that a tad fast? Like -- exceedingly fast? I also noted an entry on their talk page asking them not to leave. Collect (talk) 00:05, 25 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep - The user subpage was created on 24 November 2008 and has not yet become "indefinitely archive permanent content". See WP:USER. Take another look at the user page on 24 February 2009 and if Abyssal's hasn't edited it by then, that would provide a stronger agrument that the user page has become indefinitely archive permanent content. -- Suntag  ☼  04:29, 25 November 2008 (UTC)
