[edit] User:Gjansen

This userpage violates Wikipedia is not a blog or webhost. It's being used in two ways: as a blog of a student's experiences in the Semester at Sea program, and as a forum for his friends to send him messages. The user himself created the now-deleted article Greg Jansen which was essentially an attempt to do the same thing in mainspace. He hasn't editing since June 18, but some of the anonymous edits to this page may be him. Leebo ^T/C 19:59, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

Delete - the content is a blatant use of WP as web space. The material is in no way relevant to WP, and the user is clearly not notable enough to be worthy of an article, especially one with a day-to-day breakdown of a trip, so there are no excuses for this. MSJapan 22:34, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

• Strong delete A blatant violation of WP:NOT#WEBHOST. Not only does Gjansen have no other edits outside the userpage, but the same applies to all except one or two of the people who have edited this page from IPs. It might not be a bad idea to protect against recreation. Shalom ^Hello 05:44, 1 July 2007 (UTC)
• Obvious delete. Facebook is that-a-way. --Calton | Talk 01:03, 2 July 2007 (UTC)
• Speedy Strong delete that page is being used as a blog and violated WP:NOT. Acalamari 18:24, 2 July 2007 (UTC)
• Speedy delete per WP:NOT#BLOG. If he wanted to do this, there are plenty of free websites that host blogs. I wonder why he chose to do this.  hmwith  talk 21:31, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

• Note that reasons under What Wikipedia is not are generally not applicable for speedy deletion. I would have deleted it on sight, but there's not really a criterion that fits. Leebo ^T/C 21:40, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

• That was my error; I meant to say "Strong" and not "Speedy". My edit summary was wrong too. Acalamari 23:58, 2 July 2007 (UTC)
