User:Elaragirl/Memory

WP:NOT#MEMORIAL we deleted the entire Sept 11th wiki, and any list of victims and at least those people have some claim to notability being as they were all over the news.  ALKIVAR™ ☢ 20:44, 11 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Seems irrelevant now the user has left the project. Majorly (o rly?) 20:58, 11 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep these deceased people might have been Wikipedians. Also this is a userspace page that does not need to be addressed in this deletion page. Let the dead rest in peace, don't disturb them. It is time for us to move on and not to bother the existing userspace memorial pages that are related to Wikipedians. Wooyi 21:00, 11 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak delete - Part of me sympathizes with Elaragirl, but the Wikipedia part says that Alkivar is right. PTO 21:02, 11 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak keep - Seems relevant about why the user has left the project. I could suggest the complete deletion of Category:Wikipedia essays included in this nomination, since according to WP:NOT#OR, personal essays are disallowed. On the other hand, Wikipedia:Public domain image resources is clearly a directory. Or alternatively, we could just properly distinguish between mainspace and non-mainspace items for specific WP:NOT policies. When WP:NOT#MEMORIAL was created, it was clear enough that it applied to article space. I guess we can twist the spirit if we want to, but please count me out. Now a better argument for this article's deletion would be WP:USER. In this case, however, I think that this user subpage is relevant, since it details exactly why Elaragirl has retired from Wikipedia - personal stuff. If he wishes, Alkivar might also want to nominate User:JzG/Laura with the same reasoning. GracenotesT § 21:15, 11 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Dealing with the loss of a friend or family member is something all of us can empathize with, but Wikipedia is not the appropriate venue for this sort of content, nor is there any evidence that any of these people ever contributed to Wikipedia.

  • Keep. It's within a user's discretion to discuss reasons for leaving the project. Mackensen (talk) 21:20, 11 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
