User:N.R.Dhanapalan
Except for entering himself at New user log, user's only contributions have been to the lengthy biography that is his user page. But Wikipedia is not a free web host, so delete. Angr (t • c) 12:22, 24 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. We seem to have a whole spate of userpage/user subpage MFDs in the last few days and I'm voting Delete on some and Keep on others, so let me explain my emerging voting policy on them. Key principles are "WP is not a webhost", "blatant nonsense, genuine attack, or copyvio should not exist on WP's servers anywhere" balanced by WP:AGF, WP:BITE, and "userfy AFD deletes that have even a grain of potential". Accordingly, I give considerable latitude to established WP contributors, and extend that latitude to newbies (including those who have been around for a few months), editors who have made only sporadic or inopportune contribtions, or had "their" articles AFDd, and/or even behaved in an infantile fashion in policy disputes. I don't give latitude to those who have demonstrated over several months that they have little interest in improving the encyclopedia and who only care about their userpage, especially if they seem to feel that it gives them some notability to do so. Hence the "Delete" on this instance but "Keep" on many others. Martinp 13:38, 24 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete, what is this userpage for, advertising, self promotion?? We are not Geocities, MySpace, or Friendster. --Ter e nce Ong 15:17, 24 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete as per exactly what Martinp says. --Hugh Charles Parker (talk) 19:40, 24 May 2006 (UTC)

 * Keep. There is a possibility that the user will contribute still. Look a this diff. ~Linuxerist [[Image:Tux.svg|15px]][[Image:Nuvola apps emacs.png|15px]] E/L/T 11:36, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
 * That was over six weeks ago. Since then, all he's done is add to his user page. Angr (talk) 11:43, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
