Revision as of 20:17, 10 October 2008

This page contains material which is kept because the contents are considered humorous. They are not intended, nor should they be used, for any research or serious use.

Editors for deletion (EfD), originally created by R then recreated by ~~LaraLove~~ Jennavecia and then given to GlassCobra, is where Wikipedians discuss whether an editor should be deleted. Editors listed here are debated for up to ∞, after which the deletion process proceeds based on Wikipedia community consensus. The editor is then either kept, merged and/or redirected, transwikied, renamed/moved to another username, or deleted per the deletion policy.^[Verify]

This page explains what you should consider before nominating, the steps for nominating single or multiple editors, and how to discuss an EfD. It also lists the editors currently under consideration and includes a 'hall of notoriety'.

Instruction creep

You must not be listed here.
The editor must not be listed here.
The editor must be established and active, as new users may not understand the seriousness of this process.
You may not list more than one editor per week.

If you want to participate in this page, the following must be met:

You must not be listed here.
You must understand WP:CIVIL, WP:NPA, and WP:DRRC, acknowledge that those policies apply here, as everywhere else on Wikipedia, and that any violations could result in a block. Be funny, not a dick.
Your participation here can not exceed 1% of your regular daily edits.^[Who?]
You must agree to never revert to re-add any comment that has been removed by any administrator (or the nominated user) for any reason.

Criteria for editor deletion

If you get past the instruction creep and understand the deletion process, consult the Criteria for editor deletion and the instructions below on how to list editors for deletion. Any debates which violate the above will be removed.

Instructions

To list a candidate, put his or her name in a level three category below, and leave {{subst:User:GlassCobra/Editor for deletion/Talk Notice}} on the editor's talk page. When ever you feel like it, close the debate placing {{subst:User:GlassCobra/Editor for deletion/top}} at the top and {{subst:User:GlassCobra/Editor for deletion/bottom}} at the bottom.

Nominees

Any editor nominated who finds it amusing and wishes to participate may add {{subst:User:GlassCobra/Editor for deletion/Nom}} to their userpage. Do not place this template on the userpage of another editor, even if you nominated them — they can do it themselves, if they so desire. Any editor who does not wish to participate may remove their nomination from this page at any time and list themselves on the opt out list.

Delete for the sake of humanity before it's too late Discussion on this user is already underway at WP:Suspected Sockpuppets of Aspiring Bot Overlords, as his daily edit count proves he is a crazed, megalomaniacal WikiBot in disguise, bent on world domination... No human could edit that much in a day; he's a ruthless machine working to enslave Wikipedians everywhere, man! See also his post, two posts above mine, for evidence that he's in on it, right up there with SineBot, ClueBot, and SuggestBot. It's a conspiracy! They're all out to get us, man!
