User:Hystaeminblumen and year-old vanity pages
Digging even deeper (hey, it's a slow day around here) turns up more stuff from October -- 2005.

Part 2 of working on the theory that Wikipedia is not MySpace. More userfied vanity articles for "editors" clearly who ain't here for the editin', but for the publicizin'/vanity. And yes, I left messages on their Talk Pages:

To recap, they ARE all similar, as these:
 * a) are user pages that were moved from article space by an admin/editor.
 * b) were originally articles that were originally speedy-delete candidates or speedy-delete eligible.
 * c) have page creators who have few/no edits outside user space.
 * d) have page creators who have not edited since the initial page creation, ONE YEAR AGO.
 * e) are, prima facie, not user pages, but attempts to use Wikipedia as a free webhost/promotional vehicle. WP:NOT, so the rule about Wikipedia not being a free web host is applicable.

Oops. I intended to leave this one off because it was created in November 2005 (making point #d above technically untrue), but since I actually added the tags:
