Wikipedia:Water cooler


Last MfD result was that this should be 'tried' for two months, to see if it took off. If not, it was recommended that the page be brought here to be removed from the encylopaedia. I therefore propose the deletion of this page, for the same reasons as before, compounded by its failure to host any activity during the trial period. RGloucester — ☎ 14:34, 15 August 2016 (UTC)
 * Mark as historical – I find this to be an interesting idea, but apparently it never really took off. The page itself did not become disruptive, so no harm in keeping it around for historical reference. North America1000 14:51, 15 August 2016 (UTC)
 * Normally, I wouldn't be opposed to this, however, there is nothing of value here to retain as a reference with regard to the encylopaedia's history, as the page essentially consists of one user's mucking about. Much better to put it into the dustbin, where it belongs. RGloucester  — ☎ 16:33, 15 August 2016 (UTC)


 * Delete: As the only person who added any actual content to the page just to see if the idea would take off, I see no historical value in the page. I considered deleting my contribution and may do so after this closes, but I didn't want to unfairly influence the outcome MfD. Did anyone even noticed what I did there with the [ Citation Needed ] tag? --Guy Macon (talk) 16:35, 15 August 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete - I was willing to let this be tried at the last MFD. I did not believe it should stand but saw no reason to delete it then.  Nothing has come of it as it was never used.  I can take the lack of use as consensus that this is not wanted.  There is nothing in the page that is needed for historical reference, the two MFDs will provide all the reference that is needed.  -- GB fan 21:33, 15 August 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep as previously, Wikipedian networking pages are a proper part of the project. Agreed, it doesn't appear to be working.  It could be tagged historical, noting that mistakes should not be deleted as it dooms future editors to repeat them, but I lean towards userfy, move to User:QEDK/Water cooler.  Absolutely nothing wrong with it in userspace.  --SmokeyJoe (talk) 03:41, 16 August 2016 (UTC)
 * I would be fine with userfying instead of deleting. --Guy Macon (talk) 15:13, 16 August 2016 (UTC)
 * If QEDK doesn't want it, I am fine with seeing it deleted. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 04:58, 17 August 2016 (UTC)
