User:Zaxby
Hoax page confected by a high-school student (see the birthdate in the infobox) from information about actual NASCAR drivers. This has nothing to do with building an encyclopedia, and we aren't this kid's Web host. (Note: This page, as well as the user behind it, has been a subject of discussion at ANI.) --Deor (talk) 14:29, 15 August 2009 (UTC)

Nobody has the right to remove anything from my user page. Take a look at this user for examplehttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Sebastian98. Why don't you delete his? (Zaxby (talk) 15:08, 15 August 2009 (UTC)) I mean you can already tell because his user page states that he has won the 2010 Formula One Championship and we all know its only 2009.(Zaxby (talk) 15:09, 15 August 2009 (UTC))
 * Ridiculous
 * "Generally, you should avoid substantial content on your user page that is unrelated to Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a general hosting service, so your user page is not a personal website. Your user page is about you as a Wikipedian, and pages in your user space should be used as part of your efforts to contribute to the project." (from the content guideline WP:UP).

Are you sure I haven't edited anything, but my user page? I have edited William Golding, Roy Halladay, Mark Teixeira, David Wright, Randy Johnson...there are a lot more others.(Zaxby (talk) 20:03, 16 August 2009 (UTC))
 * Speedy delete" per WP:USERPAGE. The userspace should not be designed to functionally substitute for articles or Wikipedia space pages. User has no other edits other than to his own userspace. Wikipedia is not a blog, webspace provider, or social networking site. Also seems to be a part of several previously deleted hoax pages back in '07--Hu12 (talk) 17:35, 15 August 2009 (UTC)
 * delete I am normally inclined to give productive users leeway about what they put in their userspace. However, a) there's no evidence of productivity by this user (almost every edit is vandalism) and b) there are possible BLP concerns given claims being made about actual drivers in the userpage. Although I do find this interesting. I've never seen Mary Sueing before for racecar driving.JoshuaZ (talk) 17:51, 15 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment- :: See also - Administrators%27_noticeboard/Incidents Zaxby may be yet another sockpuppet of Thechroniclesofratman.--Hu12 (talk) 18:03, 15 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Note: Despite the MfD tag's statement not to move the page while the MfD discussion is open, Zaxby has blanked this page and pasted the material in User:Zaxby/Sandbox; so please consider that the page that is now being nominated for deletion. I'll add an MfD tag there as soon as I can figure out how to direct it here. Deor (talk) 14:42, 16 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Editing them only after you have been informed that there is an AN/I discussion regarding your editing behaviour doesn't quite count.


 * I'm also fairly certain that moving your user page to a sandbox connected to your user page is blatantly ignoring the fact that we're not here for you to use as a host for your alter ego. IIIVIX  ( Talk ) 20:35, 16 August 2009 (UTC)

Lies, my first edit was on the Oscar De La Hoya page. Nice try. Try harder.(Zaxby (talk) 21:05, 16 August 2009 (UTC))
 * Another note: I also recommend that if the sandbox version is deleted, the relevant edits of the user page also be deleted, so that Zaxby can't just restore it through reversion of his own blanking. Deor (talk) 20:48, 16 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Nothing will stop him from saving an offline copy. Repeated restoring of content that is removed/deleted by consensus of a deletion debate is something that can warrant a block, no matter how it is accomplished. Gigs (talk) 23:30, 16 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Yes, I thought of that, but I figured it was worth mentioning. Deor (talk) 23:35, 16 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete (the Sandbox), as per nom. --  Phantom Steve  ( Contact Me, My Contribs ) 12:10, 18 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Strong delete the sandbox as they are not storage areas for content that would be deleted in the article space. I'd also like to point out at the user's earlier comment "Nobody has the right to remove anything from my user page" that you don't own your user space. This is an encyclopedia, not a webhost.
