Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/User:Actor Jose Acevedo

 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the miscellaneous page below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the page's talk page or in a deletion review).  No further edits should be made to this page.

The result of the discussion was  delete. It is true that contributors are generally allowed some latitude for what to include on their user pages, but WP:UP says "you should avoid substantial content on your user page that is unrelated to Wikipedia" and "Your user page is about you as a Wikipedian, and pages in your user space should be used as part of your efforts to contribute to the project." In this case the user has (apart from one test edit) no contributions except to this, which as an article has been deleted as non-notable; it seems he is only here to write about himself, and so WP:NOTMYSPACE and WP:FAKEARTICLE apply.

 * It's the article in mainspace that should be deleted as non-notable. Isn't the user allowed to set up his own page however he likes it so long as he isn't violating any policies? Are You The Cow Of Pain? (talk) 19:05, 21 July 2010 (UTC)
 * They should not be copies (archival or otherwise) of articles in mainspace: WP:FAKEARTICLE -- &#124;  Uncle Milty  &#124;  talk  &#124;  22:12, 21 July 2010 (UTC)


 * Delete per WP:FAKEARTICLE, which states "While userpages and subpages can be used as a development ground for generating new content, this space is not intended to indefinitely archive your preferred version of disputed or previously deleted content or indefinitely archive permanent content that is meant to be part of the encyclopedia. Wikipedia is not a free web host and private copies of pages that are being used solely for long-term archival purposes may be subject to deletion" (mine emphasized).

 * Delete No point in having a copy of a mainspace article. And there is WP:FAKEARTICLE.
 * Delete per WP:FAKEARTICLE. Looks also like breach of WP:NOTWEBHOST. Johnuniq (talk) 08:10, 24 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete. I've just deleted the same thing in article space by User:Daclubkid, who I suspect is probably the same person.-FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 22:48, 26 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment - as the article has been deleted from mainspace technically this is no longer a copy of a mainspace article. This now seems to fall back into the realm of "personalized user page". We allow users to post information about their lives and occupations on their user pages so this strikes me as simply an iteration of a concept that we already endorse. Are You The Cow Of Pain?

 * True, but we don't allow users to advertise- and this isn't an active user who is writing about himself on his user page, it's a user whose sole purpose on Wikipedia is self-promotion. I see the deletion as being parallel to the deletion of advertisements for people's businesses and web sites in user space. I might feel differently if he ever showed an interest in becoming a Wikipedia editor... -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 23:05, 26 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Honestly I don't care whether this page survives or not, I just like to know that policies and guidelines are applied universally. Are You The Cow Of Pain? (talk) 05:03, 27 July 2010 (UTC)
