[edit] User:God of War/POV Box

"Template" does nothing to assist the encyclopedia. Also violates the WP:NPOV and WP:POINT policy amoung others. Usage wise, its only being utilized in one POV userspace article, and doesn't link to anything else. Clear violation of the usage for template/user space. -Zero^Talk 16:46, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

• Speedy keep, as user subpages have been used for transclusion to simplify the code of the main page for a long time. The page it is used in - User:God of War/Tyranny and Fascism - Past and Present - just survived MFD. --SPUI (talk - don't use sorted stub templates!) 16:48, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

Indeed. And could you kindly explain the purpose of these userspace documents....? -Zero^Talk

NPOV does not apply to userspace -- editors are not required to be robots. This marker makes that clear to anyone who might be confused. Such clarity is obviously good, as you, Zero, do appear confused on this point. Making a marker to highlight existing policy cannot be a WP:POINT violation, either. Xoloz 17:22, 11 March 2006 (UTC)

• Not sure if this is the appropriate place for this nomination. In any event, this offends nothing. Strong Keep. Xoloz 16:59, 10 March 2006 (UTC)
• Keep NPOV does not apply, this is not an article. The POV Box is not disrupting Wikipedia, so this does not violate POINT. I don't see any need to delete this. Pagrashtak 01:00, 11 March 2006 (UTC)
• Keep NPOV should not apply outside article space AdamJacobMuller 02:54, 11 March 2006 (UTC)

• Speedy Keep -- Nothing stated is a legitimate issue for a user page. --Mysidia (talk) 09:27, 12 March 2006 (UTC)
• Keep, but recommend subst'ing, as I don't think this template will feasibly be used outside of the one page. Quite appropriate for userspace. --Blu Aardvark | ^{(talk) | (contribs)} 22:30, 12 March 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. Reasonalable for userspace.Herostratus 08:18, 13 March 2006 (UTC)
