Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/User:Deepmath
The page looks like a blog or a private web page with very little Wikipedia content. It also contains inflammatory content and many factual errors (like the toxicity of cyanide). It violates the Wikipedia:User page#What may I not have on my user page?.--Sjö (talk) 17:48, 10 August 2009 (UTC)
- Keep. Different people interpret the guidelines differently:
- Some people add information about themselves as well, possibly including contact information (email, instant messaging, etc), a photograph, their real name, their location, information about their areas of expertise and interest, likes and dislikes, homepages, and so forth.
- This is what I read. I'd like to keep my page and request that Sjö stop harassing me on Wikipedia. If there is some content that Sjö dislikes, we can have a discussion on what is appropriate and what is not in my particular case. It is inappropriate to simply ban a user from having a user page, or to propose it for deletion by referencing general guidelines without being specific about exactly what content on the user page is objectionable. Content on my user page, e.g. likes and dislikes, does not have to be factual. Here is a list of about fourteen articles to which I have contributed heavily: User:Deepmath#And_how.27s_traffic_in_Maryland.2C_boys.3F. Deepmath (talk) 06:47, 12 August 2009 (UTC)

- No I don't need to. But I will anyways. #2: "Extensive discussion not related to Wikipedia" 99% of the pages and pages of drivel have nothing to do with Wikipedia. #3 "Excessive personal information (more than a couple of pages) unrelated to Wikipedia" Of course the word "page" is undefined, but I think most people would agree that this is more than a couple of pages of personal information. #9 "Extensive personal opinions on matters unrelated to Wikipedia, wiki philosophy, collaboration, free content, the Creative Commons, etc." Yikes. The opinions on French people, preachers, rabbis, cops, men, counterintelligence, and healthcare is divisive to say the least. ~a (user • talk • contribs) 20:55, 12 August 2009 (UTC)

There is no reason to single me out. Many Wikipedians have extensive user pages. Do you have a financial interest in our corrupt healthcare system in the United States?
