User:M.e/Joseph Garrett


A page about kids' YouTube presenter Joseph Garrett was userfied here back in March - since then the userpage floated into the top ten Google results for the subject's name, and has been steadily expanded with fancruft and vandalism as a result. Despite being NOINDEXed last week, it's still showing up in search engines and getting 50 hits a day. I created a sourced article at Joseph Garrett last week, and have salvaged everything that seems useful from this draft, so I think it's served its purpose.

 * Delete or... It's dropped off Google now, but it's linked in a lot of blogs etc. If/when M.e returns and if they want it back, I'll be happy to restore it (under a different name...). Otherwise, we could very simply redirect it to the main space article, which would preserve a lot of editing history for those that like that sort of thing. I seem to remember userfying it for M.e (who wasn't the creator of this version). They did things to it, but didn't relaunch it, and then moved to other topics before disappearing (which they have done before). Peridon (talk) 17:43, 13 November 2014 (UTC)
