Misuse of the sandbox


Per Don't stuff beans up your nose. A bot periodically cleans the sandbox, so all "misuses" are short-lived anyway. (Note: Im' not the IP that nominated the page, but I agree, so I'm completing the nomination). Cambalachero (talk) 13:59, 20 November 2011 (UTC)
 * delete per BEANS - see, , , , . 77.126.48.14 (talk) 14:06, 20 November 2011 (UTC)
 * I've re-formatted these diffs so they work without any hitches for people who don't use secure.wikimedia.org (which is deprecated anyway (try the newer secure gateway). Graham 87 14:34, 20 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete or merge to About the Sandbox – I brought this page to the community's attention, but I've since come to realise that most of its text is unnecessary per WP:BEANS, and I don't really care what happens to this page now. However it is worth noting that three out of the five edits cited in the above vote were by the !voting user, and the other two were by 77.126.48.14, who is probably the same person.

 * Delete per BEANS. -- Klein zach  03:27, 21 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Merge to WP:About the Sandbox without making very prominent mention per WP:BEANS. &mdash; Train2104 (talk • contribs • count) 15:52, 22 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep. I think this is a good ground rules page for newcomers to read about the rules of the Sandbox. 71.146.20.62 (talk) 21:59, 22 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep. Harmless, and of some value.  No reason to deletion.  Notions to merge and/or redirect should not be for MfD to mandate.  --SmokeyJoe (talk) 16:08, 23 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep This teaches a good lesson to people like me. Ian Streeter (talk) 14:09, 25 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep At least a potentially helpful page. BEANS works either way on this one - since "[a] bot periodically cleans the sandbox, []all "misuses" are short-lived anyway," including BEANS-related ones.  --Philosopher Let us reason together. 19:55, 25 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Merge: to About the Sandbox, as could be there easily.  Ebe 123  → report on my contribs. 10:31, 28 November 2011 (UTC)
