Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/User talk:HuongVTT




 * 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 discussion was Move/Keep - The user was never contacted, there was no determination exactly what was on the page though it appeared to be a glossary. The user talk page was moved to User:HuongVTT/Glossary as the information was clearly inappropriate for user talk. The deletion arguments were week or lacked a clear basis for their assumptions.

User talk:HuongVTT
I'm completing this MfD on behalf of an anonymous editor, 98.248.33.198. Their rationale is: "It appears to be some sort of list of terms that doesn't appear related to editing WP." --A Stop at Willoughby (talk) 05:13, 9 November 2009 (UTC)
 * I am also nominating the following page, as its content is very similar to the above page:
 * User:HuongVTT
 * I remain neutral. A Stop at Willoughby (talk) 23:48, 12 November 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete - somebody's homework perhaps? Vietnamese is one hell of a language. Crafty (talk) 05:51, 9 November 2009 (UTC)


 * comment it could possibly be to do with writing a Vietnamese Wikipedia, but I would rather hear from the writer what it is. It is not any where near a normal talk page, and User:HuongVTT is in the same vein. Checking there are articles in the vi Wikipedia with names listed, but HuongVTT does not appear to be an author.

 * Keep Appears to be an English-Vietnamese technical glossary. Userspace does not require that an article be usable in mainspace (else it would be in mainspace, after all).  Violates no rules for userspace - not spam, commercial, offensive to WP or the like. All it is, is a glossary.  And WP has no requirements for a "normal talk page" by the way.  "one hell of a language" is not a recognized rationale for deletion either. Absent any reason to delete, default to Keep. Collect (talk) 11:23, 9 November 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete or blank The general userspace guideline is that userspace exists to support the writing of the encyclopedia. As well, a talk page is for communications, not hosting extensive other content.  Gigs (talk) 14:06, 9 November 2009 (UTC)


 * Neutral Although the organisation (Chapter 1, Chapter 2, etc) seems to make it unlikely that this is directly connected to WP work, I would like to give the user an opportunity to respond here before I make a reasoned !vote. It should also be noted that some of this content (without the Chapters) is on User:HuongVTT. --  Phantom Steve  ( Contact Me, My Contribs ) 14:08, 11 November 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete The user's only edits are to his/her user and talk pages. Looks like its part of a school project or something.  WP:NOTWEBHOST applies.  Deserted Cities (talk) 22:16, 13 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep User:HuongVTT; move content of User talk:HuongVTT to a user subpage. This sort of content does not belong on a user talk page, which is for communication between the user and other editors. However, no effort seems to have been made to contact the user to ask why they are creating an English-Vietnamese dictionary in their userspace or to ask them to stop doing that; rather, the page was just nominated for deletion without any warning. Because no such contact has been made with the user, I am recommending that the user page be kept and the user talk content be moved to a user subpage for the time being. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 07:27, 15 November 2009 (UTC)


 * Blank rather than delete. The only good faith use for this that I can think of is that the user could be constructing a personal dictionary to convert between English and Vietnamese Wikipedias, with a focus on technical articles. Without the user's input here, and assuming that is the case, I agree that a user's talk page should be used for communication with the user so the content should not be there, and moving to a user subpage is a borderline WP:NOTWEBHOST violation.

 * By the way, has anyone tried to contact the user in Vietnamese? Ivanvector (talk) 19:43, 17 November 2009 (UTC)
