User:Yanico/Cygwin, cron and networked drives
Howto guide. Not likely to be of later use in articlespace, and an inappropriate use of userspace. Chris Cunningham (not at work) - talk 14:36, 10 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete Wikipedia is not your personal web host. This is simply a how-to article that would really never be acceptable in article space and should be deleted. GrooveDog (talk) (Review) 19:34, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Transwiki to Wikibooks. It appears to be appropriate for a how-to guide on Cygwin. &mdash;harej (talk) (cool!) 20:20, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:NOTHOWTO and WP:USER as a how-to guide and as not being useful for mainspace article development. To transwiki or not is a separate decision. This was written by an apparent newbie with essentially no other contributions, and therefore per WP:BITE, someone should spend some quality time explaining to this user what WP is, and is not, and why this userspace page is being nominated for deletion. — Becksguy (talk) 21:03, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Refer to wikiHow, and encourage user to transwiki the content. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 10:12, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
 * You can delete my article: I published it to wikiHow. Sorry for the disturbance.--Yanico (talk) 15:48, 20 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Thank you. Sorry about the stern reaction.  Could you give me a link to the wikiHow article?  --SmokeyJoe (talk) 23:23, 20 July 2009 (UTC)
