User:T'Shael/lynch
Too sexually sensitive – as much as I respect that my adoptees like to have fun together, the mention of pornography and prostitution in a positive light is (IMO) taking it too far.  Dylan 620  (contribs, logs) 23:47, 13 July 2009 (UTC) It doesn't seem to meet Deletion policy or fail WP:USERPAGE. I'd be most happy if t'shaél requested deletion himself (I think this would be the appropriate sensible thing for him to do, it could be considered offensive, and doesn't exactly shine a good light on him). I strongly believe you should have talked to him about this before nominating it for deletion, 'specially with you being his mentor, this is the kind of thing I'd expect mentors to do by discussing, rather than leaving a deletion template on their own adoptee's talk page. So to sum up; I think you both "done wrong", would like the userbox to be deleted, but don't think it should be deleted per Deletion policy; hence, not going delete or keep. - Kingpin13 (talk) 00:07, 14 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep - I see no problems with it and can't see how it violates policy. No more "sexually sensitive" than,  ,  , and  . - t'shaél chat 23:52, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep. Meant to be humorous. Wikipedia is a community; we collaborate more effectively when we can be a little silly. And, of course, Wikipedia isn't censored. Vicenarian  (T · C) 23:55, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment While I agree completely and uterly with you, I don't think that is reason to delete (Wikipedia isn't censored, and in general we let people do what they like with their userpages). This userbox is in no way extreme. I don't agree with the second part of t'shaél's reason for keeping either.
 * Comment: Regardless of the outcome of the debate, I think it'd be best if the UBX was linked to reflect that it is a reference to a Stephen Lynch song, and is not intended be a statement about the user's preferences (esp. regarding the latter). decltype (talk) 00:17, 14 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment Yes, that probably is a good idea. I've since changed it to reflect that. t'shaél chat 00:21, 14 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment: Does it really matter what the user prefers? I mean, really? Regardless if it's a joke or not? Vicenarian  (T · C) 00:22, 14 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment I wouldn't think so. I like porn and hookers, so sue me. However for the sake of compromise, I changed it per decltype's suggestion. t'shaél chat 00:36, 14 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment At some level, I do think it makes it more palatable —for lack of a better word— :) decltype (talk) 00:56, 14 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Speedy Keep - and suggest you withdraw this, Dylan. Wikipedia is not censored, this userbox is not divisive, and your prudishness--for lack of a better word--is not sufficient cause to delete anything. → ROUX   ₪  00:38, 14 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Withdrawn by nominator - I sincerely apologize to my adoptees, and I hope that they can accept my apology. I did not realize the examples T'Shael showed existed, nor did I realize the userbox was but a reference to something else. I overreacted to the userbox, and I deeply regret that. I was wrong in sending it to MfD. Best,  Dylan 620  (contribs, logs) 00:43, 14 July 2009 (UTC)
