Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/User:D-Day/The REAL Jimbo Wales Story


 * 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 Snowball keep. If something like this was written about any user and that user wanted it gone, it would be gone. However, Jimbo along with a slew of other editors don't seem to have any worries about it. Gwen Gale (talk) 23:11, 12 April 2009 (UTC)

User:D-Day/The REAL Jimbo Wales Story
This page is not correct for open space in wikipedia.The user in question has read it now and even though he has said he is not upset about it there is no place for such pages in wikipedia open space. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Off2riorob (talk • contribs)


 * Keep. As I've already said to you (Off2riorob) this page has been live for three years without any objections. As Jimbo Wales said before you removed his comments from his own talk page without asking him, "it seems good natured and I don't mind it" – since Jimbo has (ahem) not exactly been shy lately about removing material about him to which he objects, the fact that he neither removed the section from his talk nor deleted this page implies that he's not offended. –  iride scent  21:42, 12 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep It's harmless & Jimbo doesn't mind it. I completely agree with Iridescent. Also, I fixed the formatting of this MfD listing.  hmwith  τ   21:47, 12 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Remove.Jimmy has left it for the community to decide. So the page has been here for 3 years ok but now its being advertised . The page doesn't need deleting it just need taking somewhere quiet .As Jimmy said He had a quick look, the joke is over . The comments are actually quite spurious . excuse my spelling I am a bit dyslexic. Thanks for fixing the format.(Off2riorob (talk) 21:52, 12 April 2009 (UTC))
 * Off2riorob, your nomination for deletion above actually counts as your !vote. You needn't restate your position. As for fixing the format, no problem. :) It took me a few times to get it right too. It's at tricky process.  hmwith  τ   21:59, 12 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Keep Per WP:User humorous essay regarding Wikipedia (in particular its Co- Founder) Subject does not feel BLP'ed. Clearly marked as humorous. The not webspace argument only counts for items not related to wikipedia there fore not to this essay. Agathoclea (talk) 22:03, 12 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep. So long as Jimbo doesn't care, nobody else should care either. — Gavia immer (talk) 22:15, 12 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep Meets criteria for userspace. Not an "attack" for gosh sakes! And, as far as I know WP:DOUR is not a policy. Collect (talk) 22:16, 12 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Snowball Keep and Close - it's in userspace, tagged humor, and Jimbo himself said he wasn't offended by it and found it good natured and said he don't mind it. - &#10032; ALLST☆R &#10032; echo 22:55, 12 April 2009 (UTC)
 * comment. So are we all to be allowed to go around writing comical-ish stories about each other on the grounds that we are all as users we are all related to wikipedia ? I think we all know that this is actually related to the co founder and nupidia situation as they are both linked in the page, this page is not so innocent or comical as it first appears but is actually just more of the same harrasment that jimmy has been suffering here.Is the page to be linked to other pages or cite ?
