Paul Pinson[edit]

Vanity page, complete with scary picture. Name gets some hits, but for an artistic director, not this 12 or 13 year old. "Much youth has said that Paul should one day run for president due too his exelent..."--"...and some say he is a reancarnation of J.R.R. Tolkien." Um, someone thinks Tolkien couldn't spell his way out of a wet paper bag? FWIW, contrib from user of the same name, that has been nicely welcomed by User:Sj, but tone of article suggests it wasn't simply 'misplaced'. Niteowlneils 21:15, 23 Oct 2004 (UTC)

  • Delete, vanity. Someday, these will be speedy candidates, and VfD will be smaller for it. Lord Bob 21:22, Oct 23, 2004 (UTC)
  • Move to User:Paulpinson and delete. Someday, the inclusionists will get VfD stricken from Wikipedia and these articles will be kept. Sigh. RickK 21:59, Oct 23, 2004 (UTC)
    • It was already handled outside of the VfD process, so apparently not. anthony (see warning) 01:45, 24 Oct 2004 (UTC)
  • Vanity. Move to User:Paulpinson and delete. [[User:Dpbsmith|Dpbsmith (talk)]] 22:12, 23 Oct 2004 (UTC)
  • Probably the most terrifying vanity page I've ever seen. Delete and/or move to User:Paulpinson --Neschek 22:40, 23 Oct 2004 (UTC)

Well, I've moved it to User:Paulpinson and deleted the redirect. Let me know if you think I've done this out of process. RickK 23:39, Oct 23, 2004 (UTC)

  • Actually, no, redirects created from articles moved to the user space are candidates for speedy deletion. I think what you've done is perfectly fine, and the kind of thing we should be doing more often. anthony (see warning) 01:47, 24 Oct 2004 (UTC)
