Template:CopyrightedFreeUse-Sherurcij (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Essentially a user-specific version of {{CopyrightedFreeUse}}. Either should be userfied or just replaced by {{NoRightsReserved}} or {{PD-self}}. howcheng {chat} 22:55, 31 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Template:User Wic (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Encourages people to impersonate the Communist Vandal (similar to why other pages were deleted - see Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Wikipedia:Long term abuse/Willy on Wheels 2). —Mets501 (talk) 18:08, 31 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the debate was speedy keep - no delete votes but me, apparantly people think I nominated this to prove a point, which is completely wrong —Mets501 (talk) 11:28, 1 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Template:User vandalized (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

All this does is encourage vandals to vandalize the user page to raise the counter. Strong deleteMets501 (talk) 17:59, 31 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. As one who has it, I have not seen that effect. If we were to use "encourages vandals" as our chief criterion for not doing things, we'd have a Wikipedia without any school articles or deletion discussions since, IMO, those do a lot more to encourage vandalism than that box.

  • Keep. Agree with Daniel Case, the only thing that seems to make people vandalise my user page is reverting their vandalism on other pages. Budgiekiller 18:13, 31 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Encouraging vandalism is a weak argument for deletion. Wikipedia, by its very nature, encourages vandalism by allowing any user to edit its pages. Shall we delete Wikipedia entirely? I think not. -FateSmiled&DestinyLaughed 18:17, 31 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Particularly as Mets501 has a user box which states "Warning to Vandals: This user is armed with Vandalproof" - surely even more incitement to commit mayhem? Budgiekiller 18:28, 31 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, what say you, Mets501? Doesn't your Vandal Proof on your page invite people to vandalize your page? Furthermore, nominating this template could be dangerous vandal-wise as well. Scary times? -FateSmiled&DestinyLaughed 19:31, 31 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Bring out the duck tape, seal the windows... vandals abound! Budgiekiller 20:07, 31 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
