User:Tholden28/Canadian federal election, 2015


Page is a sham/essay without any basis whatsoever. The writer is a radical anti-Conservative who somehow thinks he can see into the future. The page as it stands has no value for the encyclopedia, especially since it poses as a fake article describing an election to be held three years from now... everything on that page is false! 70.48.78.19 (talk) 12:08, 9 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep It is in Userspace, not in Mainspace. Last I checked, predictions in Userspace are not violative of much at all, nor would any reasonable reader be remotely apt to mistake it for an actual article.  And there is no  requirement that user predictions be the "truth" as far as I can tell.  Cheers. Collect (talk) 12:33, 9 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep Well said, Collect. Furthermore, it is hardly a "radical anti-Conservative" page. Do I say they ran a terrible campaign, do I say they were bumbling, do I say that anyone who supports them is a fool? Absolutely not! I merely say that they would lose seats. I'm sorry if you disagree with my view, but I hardly see why my own userpage concerns you. Tholden28 (talk) 12:53, 9 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Comment. The nominator and Tholden28 are currently edit warring over the infobox image at Peter MacKay. --Ron Ritzman (talk) 13:09, 9 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep No harm, no foul as long as it's in userspace. --MrRadioGuy P T C E 19:13, 9 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep. Users can do what they want in their space. However, I just don't see the purpose of such an extravagant creation. 117Avenue (talk) 03:27, 10 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete FAKEARTICLE. It is of no benefit to the encyclopaedia, and is well beyond a sandbox for the user to test templates or page layouts. 117Avenue (talk) 05:08, 12 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete - per WP:FAKEARTICLE. Given that I appear to be in the minority, I've added Userspace draft to the top of the page, to avoid confusion. (And just a note for 117, Collect, Ron, and MrRadio, we do have rules about what a user can do in their own space, though I recognize you may not share my interpretation of those rules).

 * Delete. WP:CRYSTAL ball gazing, a hoax, misleading.  This page is not suitable drafting and is not for the benefit of the project.  Predictions in userspace may be OK, but they must be couched as predictions, not as a ficticious future history.  Opinions are OK, but must be clearly presented as the user's opinion.  As a piece of creative fiction, the user should be refered to Alternative outlets.  It is possible that the content could be reworked to present Tholden28's POV, but as it is it should be deleted.  --SmokeyJoe (talk) 00:12, 12 April 2012 (UTC)
 * delete this is not related to WP. find a blog or webhost. SchmuckyTheCat (talk) 02:10, 12 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete because this is not useful to the encyclopedia at all. There is nothign wrong with user page drafts and essays that have the potential to become articles, but this page is pure fantasy and is not likely to be useful to the encyclopedia anytime soon, and certainly not in 2015. As for Stockwell Day, his time is up; I must agree with the op here, that essay really is baseless. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Naked Nomad (talk • contribs) 03:54, 12 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete this does not further Wikipedia's goals of being an encyclopedia; this is a POV WP:FAKEARTICLE. OSbornarfcontribs. 00:33, 16 April 2012 (UTC)
