User:Paul Bedson/Sandbox


adding per below:

This was nominated before (see Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/User:Paul Bedson/Sandbox) with a no-consensus outcome. Of late the author has been banned for, well, making articles like this. It's substantially WP:OR, with a reference in the text to the author as one of the researchers. no less. I've found at least one external link to the article. There is no way this is going to be promoted into article space, and we can stop serving as a web host given that I've found copies of the article all over the place. It's time for this to go.

 * I agree. I don't think his threat to sock unless he is unblocked/unbanned will succeed, so he's not coming back. There are also User:Paul Bedson/Sandbox1, User:Paul Bedson/Sandbox2, User:Paul Bedson/sandbox and User:Paul Bedson/Langfedgetal.
 * I am adding these to the nomination. Mangoe (talk) 22:43, 30 March 2013 (UTC)


 * Delete (or blank) all his subpages, per Requests for comment/Paul Bedson. In the previous MfD, I held out in forlorn hope that there was something worthwhile to be made from it.  Instead, the user was banned.  Of course, email the content to Paul should he ever ask, and allow undeletion (subject to any unbanned conditions), should he ever be unbanned.  Again, refer Paul to Alternative outlets.  --SmokeyJoe (talk) 10:46, 30 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete or blank. The content has all been deemed unuseful to the project by consensus and AfDs.  Much of it arguably qualifies for SPEEDY G4, it being used simply to mirror deleted pages (or pages converted to redirect by consensus). The rest is being preserved as a content fork.  User is now using this repository to recreate sock puppet User pages that mirror the original account.  Agricolae (talk) 02:51, 31 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete as per above, but I can't agree that this should be emailed to an editor who has promised as recently as last night to continue sock puppetry. Dougweller (talk) 12:32, 31 March 2013 (UTC)
 * What are you talking about? --SmokeyJoe (talk) 12:53, 31 March 2013 (UTC)
 * I presume Doug is referrring to this . See also Sockpuppet investigations/Paul Bedson/Archive for his recent activity along these lines. Agricolae (talk) 14:53, 31 March 2013 (UTC)


 * Delete all, oppose blanking per my comments at Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/User:Paul Bedson/Sandbox: "*Delete per WP:NOTWEBHOST and WP:NOTSOAPBOX. Parts of the userspace draft are GFDL violations of Wikipedia articles. For example, User:Paul Bedson/Sandbox was copied from White Ware. A Google search for 'Aaiha Hypothesis' returns no non-Wikipedia results. Per Chris Cunningham, none of the sources cited in the userspace draft cover the Aaiha Hypothesis in depth. Because of the COI concerns, and because this userspace draft with GFDL-violating content would not survive AfD, it should be deleted. Cunard (talk) 17:27, 11 July 2011 (UTC)" The user was indefinitely blocked per Requests for comment/Paul Bedson and banned at Administrators' noticeboard/IncidentArchive789 (permanent link).
