User page that is not being updated in six months. Userspace is not a webhost for deleted articles - this was specifically created as an alternative to mainspace, "Hosted the LlamaBot article for viewing purposes." Miami33139 (talk) 21:10, 18 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Appears to be a copy of the article deleted at Articles for deletion/LlamaBot. You should talk to the user before nominating their pages.  Failing that, why not just blank it?  --SmokeyJoe (talk) 21:50, 18 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep Sandboxes are ... sandboxes. They are not articles, and there is no basis for deletion given. Unless, of course, all userpages not altered every six months are open for deletion. Collect (talk) 21:59, 18 November 2009 (UTC)
 * UP This is a rationale and always has been. Sandboxes that do not get touched for long periods should expire. Google indexes them. Sandboxes are not meant to be alternate hosts for deleted content, that is exactly the purpose of this sandbox according to the edit summary. Miami33139 (talk) 22:24, 18 November 2009 (UTC)
 * If deleted content can be "userfied" and can not be in userspace -- um? As for google indexing - that issue has been repeatedly discussed elsewhere, but is not a reason for deletion.  Collect (talk) 11:49, 20 November 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete This page violates WP:FAKEARTICLE. If this formerly AfD'd article was recreated in the mainspace, it would've been speedily deleted. Since the user is not improving the article, this is at the very least gaming the system and, considering it's been untouched for months, genuine violation of userpage guidelines.

 * Delete. Violates UP (which links to the same as WP:FAKEARTICLE) and breaks the GFDL. LlamaBot was deleted at Articles for deletion/LlamaBot. It was created by Coopkev2 but had other contributors who are not credited at the copy. PrimeHunter (talk) 13:21, 21 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Weak keep for now. It stands to reason that the user intends to work on improving the article; userfying a deleted after an AfD mainspace article is quite legitimate. It is true that 6 months of not working on this page is pushing it a bit, but I would give the user 3-4 more months to see if any further progress occurs. Nsk92 (talk) 13:23, 21 November 2009 (UTC)
 * The creation of the copy had edit summary "Hosted the LlamaBot article for viewing purposes", and added this to the page: "This page has been deleted from the main encyclopedia but is maintained here for necessary viewing purposes." The user has never worked to improve the page but only deleted some things not belonging in userspace. The user can make an offline copy if there is considerations to ever attempt getting it back in the encyclopedia. PrimeHunter (talk) 13:32, 21 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Good point, changing to Delete. Nsk92 (talk) 13:36, 21 November 2009 (UTC)
