User:SCNTM

 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the miscellaneous page below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the page's talk page or in a deletion review).  No further edits should be made to this page.  

The result of the debate was no consensus to delete. Looks like SCNTM has agreed to move their workpage to a subpage, I'll leave that to him/her to do. delldot  &nabla;.  23:39, 3 October 2008 (UTC)

Nominating this and User:Aydi101/Sim City's Next Top Model for deletion an article about this non-notable show has already been deleted (see Articles for deletion/Sim City's Next Top Model). This looks like a Wikipedia page being used as a web hosting service than any attempt to improve the article, as no references are being provided to establish its notability. It has already been blanked because of this on more than one occasion. --Snigbrook ( talk ) 22:11, 21 September 2008 (UTC)

If you are interested in using the wiki technology for a collaborative effort on something else, even if it is just a single page, there are many sites that provide wiki hosting (free or for money). You can also install wiki software on your server. See the Wiki Science wikibook for information on doing this. Scratchpad Wiki Labs also allows personal wikis. See also Alternative outlets.
 * Delete. Is using wikipedia userspace as a non-wikipedia webhost.  Advise user, from WP:NOT:

 * Userfy to subpage and keep. Userfy User:SCNTM into a user subpage since content was being edited as of 5 September 2008. Keep User:Aydi101/Sim City's Next Top Model since was being edited as of 21 September 2008. -- Suntag  ☼  16:51, 22 September 2008 (UTC)
 * I remember commenting on this same subject matter elsewhere. It wasn't the AfD. I think it was a prior MfD. So if someone can find a prior discussion on this material, that would add to the discussion. -- Suntag  ☼  17:07, 22 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Userfy and keep. I think what we should do from now on is cite the sources and links to the episodes. With that, both series have reached enough publicity for an article on Wikipedia. SCNTM (talk) 00:03, 26 September 2008 (UTC)
 * I see a collection of information not at all related what what might be based on independent secondary sources. Publicity is not what justifies an article, coverage in third party reliable sources is required.  Having the information and then looking for sources is just wrong.  You need to start with the sources and work with sourced information.  --SmokeyJoe (talk) 00:21, 26 September 2008 (UTC)
 * User states subpages can be used as a development ground for generating new content so long as it does not become an indefinitely archive page. A rule of thumb is that after three months from the first post to the user page, then it starts becoming more like an indefinitely archive page. Eventually, I think this material will get delete. However, since this material is relatively new to a user page and SCNTM has edited the encyclopedia, it seems reasonable to keep the user page for a while longer to allow SCNTM a chance to source the content. Moving the material to user subpage would help matters as well. -- Suntag  ☼  08:51, 28 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment "Userfy" is not an applicatable option for a user page. It is already in userspace.  --SmokeyJoe (talk) 21:29, 1 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete - Taking into account the AfD, chances of this becoming an article are slim. The edits that i see amount to updating the tables with respect to what is happening on Youtube rather than adding any reliable sources. I mean we can also resurrect this if Aidy101 can point at two or three referecnes. Nor do i understand why we have two accounts involved here. Given that it is an acronym, SCNTM looks mostly as a promotional role account.--Tikiwont (talk) 09:53, 3 October 2008 (UTC)
