Forum:Deleting user pages and user talk pages

Since the other forum was completely gone off topic and began to be unreadable, I'll start another one. Please leave the discussion about NinjaSheik in the other one and just talk here about whatever an user and talk page should be deleted, for what reasons or for what reasons it shouldn't be.

I'll repost my argumentations: I still didn't hear a valid reason why one of the above alternative is not acceptable in place of the deletion aside the "I just want to".
 * The user don't own his pages, since they are wiki pages, hence they are system pages. The user cannot delete the pages by himself, only admins can, hence it's at least an admin decision to grant the request or not.
 * The deletion of user and talk pages can be a nuisance for other users.
 * There are plenty of other valid alternative of deletion:
 * Blank out their personal pages. (blank out = removing all content; deleting page = removing the page from the system)
 * Leave a few words telling how and where contact them (like this)
 * Make a soft redirect  (user page) and   (talk page)
 * Leave things as they are.
 * If the reason behind the deletion request is to avoid being bothered by other users, then protect the pages at admin level, this way only admin will be able to edit them if it will be necessary.
 * If the reason behind the deletion request is to not let people access the history page for whatever reason then the correct procedure to do that is: 1. blank out the page; 2. delete the page; 3. restore only the last revision of the page.

So now that the whole shitstorm is cleared can we just restore her talkpage so I don't have to look at a frickin redlink on the wa? 19:38, April 25, 2012 (UTC)

I think we should have a simple vote about it one here. (OnePieceNation 00:02, April 26, 2012 (UTC))

Fine than I'll start one:

Protecting user (talk) pages

 * Only protect user pages after excessive vandalism?


 * Yes (Only after vandalism)
 * 10:38, April 28, 2012 (UTC)
 * 1) (OnePieceNation) (OnePieceNation 23:12, April 28, 2012 (UTC)) Only after excessive outside vandalization and only after a request by the concerning user.
 * 03:27, April 29, 2012 (UTC) (If they're not protected, they can easily vandalize it however they please. You can upload images and videos externally now, so a smart vandalist can decorate his whole profile with GOATSE. Not all of us want that.)


 * No (Protect them whenever)


 * Never protect them
