Wikipedia:Vandalism in progress/CheeseDreams controversy[edit]

Wikipedia:Vandalism in progress/CheeseDreams controversy was proposed for deletion. This page is an archive of the discussion about the proposed deletion. This page is no longer live. Further comments should be made on the article's talk page rather than here so that this page is preserved as an historic record. The result of the debate was keep.

As pointed out by many people, this is not vandalism, but the page's existance is harrassment.

  • Keep another pointless vfd by CheeseDreams... I fixed the link in heading, I hope that's what you had in mind. Grue 16:07, 12 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. Evidence like this should be archived indefinitely. jni 16:17, 12 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. These repetitive listings are a form of vandalism in themselves. Not to mention a huge administrative waste of time. —[[User:Radman1|RaD Man (talk)]] 16:23, 12 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. "The lady doth protest too much, methinks." [[User:GeorgeStepanek|GeorgeStepanek\talk ]] 21:16, 12 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep These pages are never deleted, and no one else but CD is claiming they are harassment.--Josiah 23:32, Dec 12, 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. Abusing VfD to cover up various parties' abuse and misuse of ViP... -Sean Curtin 23:52, Dec 12, 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete: Pages about one user in particular such as this should always be deleted/blanked after resolution. EventHorizon 02:15, 13 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep, public record. --fvw* 02:25, 2004 Dec 13 (UTC)
  • Keep. CheeseDreams shouldn't have been listed on VIP, but the fact that he has been numerous times should be archived for future reference. This is a record of the people who reported it as well as Cheese's conduct. [[User:MacGyverMagic|Mgm|(talk)]] 09:20, Dec 13, 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. Serves as a record of conduct by our peers and should not be destroyed. [[User:GRider|GRider\talk]] 17:23, 13 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep, shouldn't be deleted. I have no idea who's right and who's wrong in this—I actually did to read through the thing, but without spending half-an-hour, checking the articles and their history, and taking notes, there's no way I could have an informed opinion. if CheeseDreams is, in fact, a target of bad behavior, I'm sorry (and sympathetic), but discussions like this should be kept for the record and shouldn't be listed on VfD. [[User:Dpbsmith|Dpbsmith (talk)]] 00:59, 14 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. As User:GRider intimates, accountability and verifiability are necessary re both the obvious villain, and those who may have wronged CD and/or the community as a whole, by creating the nominated page. The rule of thumb that the remedy for bad info is more info, not less, is quite applicable here. --Jerzy(t) 01:09, 2004 Dec 14 (UTC)
  • "the page's existance is harrassment" [sprinkle sic to taste] -- I don't understand how this could be so. Keep -- Hoary 03:57, 14 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep as it serves a very useful purpose that, along with other articles of its type, are vital for keeping Wikipedia running smoothly. DreamGuy 21:55, Dec 17, 2004 (UTC)

This page is now preserved as an archive of the debate and, like some other VfD subpages, is no longer 'live'. Subsequent comments on the issue, the deletion or on the decision-making process should be placed on the relevant 'live' pages. Please do not edit this page.
