Deletion of userpages
I disagree with this policy; I think it would be good to have templates for these etc. What does everyone think?? --Hotrocks 16:34, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
 * We do not need shrines for vandals. Nor do we need pages so they can have something to link to as proof of their "great deeds". And we certainly do not need custom templates for each vandal so they can be even more excited about vandalizing here.
 * Vandalism is a nuisance and will be addressed as such but it's not a big issue, nor should it be made into one. -- sebmol ? 17:07, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
 * I completely agree here. I have agressively deleted these vandalism user templates when found, and certainly don't think we should be glorifying individuals who are counter-productive to the mission of Wikiversity and Wikimedia projects in general.  --Robert Horning 18:34, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Just throwing in my lot with sebmol and Robert Horning, I agree that we shouldn't be glorifying vandalism, and I have deleted several of these templates.-- digital  _  me   22:22, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
 * I've taken a moment to write up an essay describing the position on vandals. It's suitably located at WV:SHRINE. -- sebmol ? 21:43, 9 September 2006 (UTC)
