Wikipedia is not a free web host. Unfortunately, this user has created such sandbox of a storm that (fortunately) is clearly fictional. This is a clearly hoax tropical cyclone, a WP:FAKEARTICLE. There is precedent: Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/User:Dylan620/1985 Planet Ceres Atlantic Hurricane Season Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/User:Anikingos/ATCW Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/User:Bruvtakesover/2011 Storm Season. Moreover, I find this thingy very inconsiderate to call for a mass destruction with 15 million lives lost due to Ida 87. In all, making this sandbox is a very poor decision and is not allowed. I do not know why ppl like to do this, though when I was immature, I use to do stuff like tis, unfortunately. YE Pacific  Hurricane 19:17, 15 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Why did you nomitate the page? I don't get what is wrong with it. Besides, it is a sandbox, so shouldn't I be able to post content I usually wouldn't be able to add on regular Wikipedia articles? LightandDark2000 (talk) 22:47, 15 August 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete. Very inconsiderate, potentially confusing, no need. ♫ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 15:04, 16 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete. I appreciate that users are creating tropical cyclone-related content within their userspace. That being said, I agree with Hurricanehink that this article is very inconsiderate, calling for "10 million" deaths and billions in damage. Editing tests are generally acceptable use of userspace, but this one is just a WP:FAKEARTICLE, as it contains false content. It probably won't work as a test page either – the information on the page is so extreme that any application to it to existing or "real" content is rather null. The page solely consists of fake content several decades from now, therefore violating WP:MADEUP. I reflect the sentiment that other users had on my own fake season page several years ago.
