Witchhunts
Essentially a defense of sockpuppetry -- N p holmes (talk) 09:12, 28 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete - I might be tempted, in other circumstances, to see this as a good-faith, if flawed, statement of disagreement with a couple aspects of WP:SOCK. However, the fact that the page was created by a now indef-blocked, abusive sock puppeteer makes it extremely hard to AGF on this one.   --Dynaflow   babble  15:05, 28 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete as utterly useless for either side. NVO (talk) 16:40, 28 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete. As Dynaflow said, I'd AGF on this but as the creator is a sock, I vote delete. Queenie   Talk  20:52, 28 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete Although I suppose I could be said to have a conflict of interest as I am fairly active in tracking serial sockpuppeteers, obviously a page created by a blocked sock defending deceptive practices is not something we should have. Beeblebrox (talk) 21:11, 28 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete Non-enyclopedic, not policy, not guideline - not essay material — Ched (talk) 21:25, 28 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Move to new section at Wikipedia talk:Sock puppetry. It is a valid as an individual's opinion, and Wikipedia talk:Sock puppetry is the appropriate venue.  --SmokeyJoe (talk) 09:57, 1 March 2009 (UTC)
 * I have done this, giving what I think is sufficient attribution. Delete Witchhunts.  --SmokeyJoe (talk) 10:04, 1 March 2009 (UTC)
 * I agree with SmokeyJoe's actions. Delete Witchhunts.  SilkTork  *YES! 13:21, 1 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete per SmokeyJoe. THF (talk) 17:59, 1 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete not appropriate as an essay in Wikipedia space, although as an opinion it could be on a talk page. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 03:31, 2 March 2009 (UTC)
