User:Geo Swan/Guantanamo/articles that aren't ready yet/Guantanamo documents/Terrorist-Related Locations and Facilities
A three year old userspace draft about a classified document, mentioned by some unclassified documents. No indication about why this would ever merit an article, no indication that it has come any closer to being a subject for an article in three years time. Wikipedia is not an indefinite storage area of things you find interesting. Fram (talk) 10:59, 4 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment -- This nomination seems to be asserting that no one can use any pages in user-space that aren't going to be turned into actual articles in article space. I do not believe this is what WP:User pages says.  The second sentence of WP:User pages says: "Their main uses are communications, discussions, notices, trial workings and drafts, notes, and (limited) self disclosure if desired."

 * Comment -- I agree that wikipedians should not use the wikipedia to store material they find personally interesting. However, I suggest that material a contributor finds interesting, that directly relates to contributions they have made to article space is completely compliant with all our policies.  I have done a lot of the work on maintaining articles like Derunta training camp, Khalden training camp and Faisalabad safe house.  I suggest these facilities would be listed in this (currently) classified document, and this makes this page of notes completely compliant with our policies.

 * This is, obviously, pure speculation and original research. Sucj things don't belong on Wikipedia, and certainly not for years and years. Fram (talk) 08:13, 5 November 2010 (UTC)


 * Delete WP:FAKEARTICLE states: "Userspace is not a free web host and should not be used to indefinitely host pages that look like articles, old revisions, or deleted content, or your preferred version of disputed content. Private copies of pages that are being used solely for long-term archival purposes may be subject to deletion." Because this page violates WP:NOTWEBHOST and WP:FAKEARTICLE, it should be deleted.

 * Three years is more than enough time for a userspace draft to be expanded, improved, and moved to the mainspace. This userspace draft is about Terrorist-Related Locations and Facilities (Terrorist-Related Locations and Facilities is a classified document that JTF-GTMO counter-terrorism analysts offered as justification for classifying Guantanamo captives to be "enemy combatants".)
