User:Geo Swan/Guantanamo/not ready yet/Muhammad Ahmed (ghost prisoner)
Unsourced WP:BLP about a minor (well, actuall not about him, all of the text apart from the first sentence is about his family). Clearly abandoned, unfinished article attempt, without any useful history or sources to keep. Userfied over two years ago. Fails WP:STALEDRAFT clearly. Fram (talk) 09:38, 11 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep. No attempt seems to have been made to communicate with the editor (who is still active on Wikipedia) about his plans for the draft before the page was nominated for deletion. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 23:08, 11 February 2011 (UTC)
 * An unsourced BLP about a minor should not be kept indefinitely. and others have discussed with Geo Swan about Geo Swan's numerous userspace drafts about non-notable individuals. See User talk:Geo Swan/archive/2010-November and User talk:Geo Swan/archive/2010-November for two examples. Cunard (talk) 00:31, 12 February 2011 (UTC)


 * Delete per WP:STALEDRAFT, which 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 article violates WP:STALEDRAFT and WP:NOTWEBHOST, it should be deleted.

 * Delete per WP:STALEDRAFT per nom: the page hasn't been edited since 10 August 2008... Salvio  Let's talk about it! 12:39, 12 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Comment when its a truly active editor, and the topic is exceptionally tricky, and there are many articles, as much time as necessary should be allowed.  I recognize that the state of thisarticle was very incomplete any standard, but he should have been asked first about this in particular. IBased on what he usually does, he would either expand it or withdraw it.    DGG ( talk ) 21:37, 12 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Geo Swan has promised time and time again to work on his userspace. He hasn't even lived up to his promise to transwiki 93 articles from his userspace after a recent MfD, he only asked to delete the first one, leaving someone else to again nominate the other 92. In this case, he just started working on another copy of the same article, User:Geo Swan/Ahmed Siddiqui. "What he usually does" in you opinion is not exactly what he "usually does" in reality (e.g. Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/User:Geo Swan/The list of entities belonging to or associated with the Al-Qaida organization. What he usually does is creating BLP violations in the mainspace and (as in this case) userspace. The page could have been deleted as a G10 negative unsourced BLP, if not for the fact that you would call me "involved", because I clean up BLP violations while you just try to protect them because the editor is active (see e.g. Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/User:Geo Swan/review/Mohammed Ibrahim (Guantanamo witness), which ended in a "no consensus" thanks to your unsubstantiated claims, and which will have to be renominated in a year because nothing will have changed).

 * Delete. Unsourced BLP WP:STALEDRAFT. MER-C 12:06, 13 February 2011 (UTC)
