[edit] User:Natevoodoo/Paul Addis
Attempt to save deleted article on attention-seeker Paul Addis (see blowout AFD and deletion review). User, while managing 2,000+ words of invective at DRV alone about how everyone wanting this deleted are evil, has someone not managed to expand this "article" past one (1) sentence. Userspace is not a warehouse for the doomed. Calton | Talk 07:18, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
- Keep I don't know who Pail Addis is. It seems like his actions at this moment in time do not warrant an article on Wikipedia, that being said I don't see why this information can't reside on this user page for now. How does deleting it help out wikipedia? How does not deleting it hurt wikipedia? It seems like an appropriate use of a user page to me. CoolMike 14:09, 12 September 2007 (UTC)

- Because both AFD and DRV have overwhelmingly concluded that it doesn't belong here.Because User space is not permanent storage for the not-ready-for-Primetime. Because it's not getting any bigger, given that the user has had a couple of weeks, during which he was able to grind out a couple thousand words of vituperation but was completely unable to expand this alleged biography from its single-sentence length. Because the "it's doing no harm" doesn't really make any sense. Other than that, not much, no. --Calton | Talk 14:21, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
- Delete The subject's non-notability has been agreed upon by a near-unanimous consensus. It's highly unlikely that the article can be fleshed-out any more. Caknuck 15:38, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
- Delete While I would have waited another week or two before nominating this for deletion, the AfD and DRV discussions form a clear consensus against the substub. No prejudice implied against the creation of a substantive draft for future consideration. ˉˉanetode╦╩ 22:06, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
Owner of user page here. Hi there. I just want to say that Calton's motivations for this deletion have been clearly stated by him as being retributive in nature. Look at my user talk page/archive for evidence of this as well as his statements on the AfD. I made the user page on the suggestion of a neutral party to avoid any more contention on this. I have a life so I haven't worked on it nor have others who have promised to contribute. While I have no wish to leave the page there permanently I don't see any time stipulation and I think the rush has everything to do with personal motivations of Calton without any connection to the rules. i.e. people who were in consensus before are nto rallying around Calton on this. Most of my absence from wikipedia has been to separate myself from the contention and let the issue rest. If I continue to be harassed by Calton I will get Admin assistance. --Natevoodoo 01:20, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
- Calton's motivations for this deletion have been clearly stated by him as being retributive in nature - So I can add "clearly" to the list of words you don't seem to understand. But let me repeat what I wrote, and see if you get it this time:
-
- "If you insist on trying to delete my User Page in some sort of retribution for my verbosity"
-
-
- Speaking of projection. As has been pointed out to you, perhaps a dozen times, this guy isn't qualified for an article: a stealth article in user space as an endrun around basic encyclopedic standards isn't going to cut it.

- How, exactly, you attribute my straight-up, stated reason as "retribution", I don't know. Probably the same lack of understanding that led you to restore vandalism to my user page -- twice -- by claiming that it was your "understanding of the rules". --Calton | Talk 06:31, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
