Created by User:Mac Lover and User:Flameviper, these redirects are a unilateral addition of another pseudo-namespace with no discussion. If we allow these to exist, there's no reason to think that we won't end up having thousands of these pages, at least one for each user who wants one, and then arguments over who should get what abbreviation and what user is more notable in the community. This is not a good idea, and a borderline R2 to boot. --Rory096 18:43, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
- Delete per nomination. We generally shouldn't have article namespace redirects to user/user talk space; we definitely shouldn't have Yet Another peudo-namespace that encourages it. Gavia immer (u|t|c) 19:01, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
- I tend to feel that wikipedia would be better off without them. Userpages are not normaly that much of a problem to find.Geni 22:59, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
- Speedy delete since there was no discussion about the creation of a new pseudo-namespace. Thus they fall under CSD R2. Khatru2 06:36, 29 October 2006 (UTC)
Cross-namespace-redirect from articlespace. By random coincidence, this redirect is very similar to a concrete example of when we should delete redirects (see number 5.) Picaroon9288 00:09, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
- Delete as a cross-namespace redirect. --Rbraunwa 01:49, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
