The outcome of this request for deletion was to  Delete. Wikipedia shouldn't be the playground of feuding reddit users; also notability issues--Eptalon (talk) 20:49, 18 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Wyvernkeeper (edit · talk · history · links · watch · logs · delete) · close request

Beaneater00 has nominated this page for deletion for the reason: this article is the name of a specific reddit user who the creator of this article does not like, earlier the creator created an article here saying "Wyvernkeeper is a liar, similar to Donald Trump and Boris Johnson" which is very much not NPOV; an individual user of reddit is not the same as the website itself, there is no way this could be a misspelling, and i do not see any other reason for there to exist a redirect here - see also JustARandommer Beaneater (contact me) (see my edits) 05:55, 18 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Please discuss this request below, but keep in mind that you shouldn't vote on everything and that there may be options other than "keep" or "delete", such as merging.

• Comment: Redirects can be between related things, not just misspellings or alternate spellings. --Auntof6 (talk) 06:20, 18 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Auntof6: I've still seen R3 used for things besides typos. I see no reason why Wyvernkeeper should redirect to Reddit in this situation, he's not notable enough in his own article and there shouldn't be an article at this title at all even if that's a redirect. For all the good pages that are getting QDed, this RfD concerns me. Computer Fizz (talk) 06:47, 18 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

R3 clearly doesn't apply here, since this title isn't anything like the name of the redirect target. Also, when a subject isn't notable enough for its own article, that is often a very good reason to have a redirect instead. However, I'm not saying that's a reason to keep this specific page. --Auntof6 (talk) 08:19, 18 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete - The user is neither famous nor infamous on reddit; only 2 of the top comments broke the 1,000 comment karma mark, while even the most controversial comment was a mere -3 karma. Looking at the contribution history of this /48 IPv6 range leads me to believe that this is more indicative of a personal attack on an otherwise unremarkable redditor. Chenzw  Talk  06:31, 18 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Chenzw: I've been discouraged from using numbers as a sign of notability before, but if there's no explanation on how he is notable, then it should be assumed not so. I also agree with you that it's intended as a personal attack. Computer Fizz (talk) 06:47, 18 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment (as I have already nominated this article for deletion): It is true that this article is tangentially related to Reddit, as this is an article about one of 330 million (2018 statistic from ) Reddit users. However, the user who created this article clearly does not like Wyvernkeeper, as evidenced by its original text: " #REDIRECT Reddit". I also could not find any references outside of Reddit, or on any other Wikipedia, to this Wyvernkeeper, so there is no reason that this redirect had ought to exist.

•  Delete in agreeance with Chenzw's comments Brantmeierz (talk) 07:05, 18 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete - Some sort of disruptive activity going on these days, see recent RFDs/QDs, some are clearly created by a user with personal vendetta against some reddit user. This should be speedy close. --Camouflaged Mirage (talk) 10:02, 18 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Speedy Delete as an attack page. Zaxxon0 (talk) 18:26, 18 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• speedy delete this is absolutely absurd. It's a blatant attack page and should be deleted immediately. Praxidicae (talk) 20:28, 18 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Speedy delete and @Auntof6: could you explain why you've failed to revdel the edit summary and initial page revision which contains an attack on a third party ? Nick (talk) 20:42, 18 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This request is due to close on 05:55, 25 January 2020 (UTC), seven days after it was filed, although it may be closed earlier at the discretion of an administrator.
