Nine year old WP:FAKEARTICLE version of Super Mario 64. Ricky81682 (talk) 15:22, 4 December 2015 (UTC)
- Comment. This nomination seems premature. Would it not be usual to discuss with the editor before nominating a page in their userspace here? They might agree to its deletion, or have a reason why it should be kept. WJBscribe (talk) 15:29, 4 December 2015 (UTC)
- It was created with the edit summary "frozen version of the good version of the article in case it's ever needed". They didn't edit it since October 2006. How is nine years premature? What reason could they provide that doesn't fail WP:UP#COPIES banning "old revisions, ... or your preferred version of disputed content"? This wouldn't have been appropriate then, it's not now. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 15:44, 4 December 2015 (UTC)
- Courtesy? It's needlessly aggressive to go around nominating userspace drafts for deletion without raising the issue with the user concerned first. WJBscribe (talk) 16:37, 4 December 2015 (UTC)
- Well, Andrevan was notified. The last edits were late and early November and sporadically before that. Again, it's been nine years without a single edit to the draft, which was stated was created to save a "good version" of the article. If you're opposing deletion that's fine. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 23:04, 5 December 2015 (UTC)

- Keep premature nomination. Insufficient time to be considered stale. 166.170.50.225 (talk) 13:29, 5 December 2015 (UTC)
- Again, nine years? -- Ricky81682 (talk) 15:30, 5 December 2015 (UTC)
- Am fine with deleting this, since it's pretty old and not needed anymore, but do wonder if nominator doesn't have better things to do. Also, if you had simply pointed it out to me, I probably would have speedy deleted it myself. Anyway, I've done so now, so I hope you feel better and you can get back to preferably useful work, or at least watching funny videos of cats. Andrevan@ 08:06, 6 December 2015 (UTC)
