Wikipedia:Why you shouldn't shank the living daylights out of a user or person who doesn't agree with you and the consequences that will follow if you do

 * – (View MfD)

I don't think this essay meets even the very flexible bar for Wikipedia user essays. I recommend it be moved to user space where it might be improved upon and be less gamer-focused. Liz Read! Talk! 02:35, 18 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete. With all due respect, the article creator has a grand total of four mainspace edits (as of this comment), and has left this draft nascent for over three months. I would not consider them to have earned the leeway to have it kept in any namespace. BD2412  T 04:06, 18 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete. I think the worst failing is that the essay is not related to Wikipedia.  It could be applied to Wikipedia, I suppose, but it hasn’t been.  —SmokeyJoe (talk) 09:41, 18 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Then, Delete the shortcuts, yes, NOSHANK (redirect page) & WHYSHANK (redirect page), covered by WP:CSD. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 23:56, 20 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete - This is marked as a humourous essay. Such an essay can be useful for providing insight into editing on Wikipedia.  However, this "essay" is neither humourous, nor insightful. -- Whpq (talk) 13:58, 18 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete - also the shortcuts, WHYSHANK & NOSHANK. The author appears to be a complete WP:NOTHERE timewaster. Cabayi (talk) 20:28, 20 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete as per User:Whpq. Stupid rather than humorous.  Robert McClenon (talk) 23:45, 20 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete. Inappropriately violent imagery throughout. Newyorkbrad (talk) 01:39, 21 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete I suppose. It feels a bit polemic. Lightburst (talk)
 * Delete: By my count, I've found literally only two edits of theirs that were actually related to developing the encyclopedia: one adding a period and one adding a (probably unnecessary) image. I've gone ahead an opened an ANI thread as this user is clearly WP:NOTHERE. Nathan2055talk - contribs 21:49, 21 September 2020 (UTC)
 * As noted on the ANI thread, there is at least one truly useful edit besides the two you mentioned, although it was to a discussion page not an article. Perhaps many more. davidwr/  (talk)/(contribs)  22:00, 21 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete without prejudice for restoring to user-space for temporary copying off-wiki and/or for improvement, but only after the editor demonstrates he understands what Wikipedia is for and declares his intent to either copy it off of Wikipedia and request speedy deletion or he demonstrates the ability to improve it and make it a suitable user-page and declares that this is his intent. davidwr/  (talk)/(contribs)  22:00, 21 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete: Yay, another one of my thingies is being put up for deletion! How fun! This, by the way, is the exact reason I'm choosing to make my own wiki. But, yeah. I'm moving this to my userspace and editing it heavily before actually publishing it. I welcome your criticism, but I also hate it (no offense, I'm just stating my internal thoughts). So, yeah. I've made it so it will redirect to the future userspace essay. Happy now? I'm sure not. ~Wandering Green User~ ✨ 〠 19:34, 24 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Wandering Green User, sorry that this place doesn't seem right for you, but there is no shame in that. You appear to only want to play, and appear to have no experience in adding or improving content.  Your userpage contains a lie "This user has 0.8 centijimbos", and you are writing inappropriate things into project space.  --SmokeyJoe (talk) 23:57, 24 September 2020 (UTC)
 * HOL' UP. What do you mean inappropriate? ~Wandering Green User~ ✨ 〠 13:48, 25 September 2020 (UTC)
