user:Jwanders personal stuff, which clutters articles' talk pages, eg Talk:Ecoforestry. This user was lastly online in 2016. It seems that this question is already solved, see Template_talk:Environmental_technology#Rework_to_match_standard_navbox_style Estopedist1 (talk) 06:18, 4 October 2021 (UTC)
- Delete - I have not researched the original issues, but we don't need to allow the user space of long-gone users to keep either junk or old notes. Robert McClenon (talk) 14:50, 4 October 2021 (UTC)
- Yes we do, and we need people like you to not make offensive statements like that on the work of past editors. SmokeyJoe (talk) 21:31, 5 October 2021 (UTC)
- Comment - Do we need a guideline on these? Robert McClenon (talk) 14:50, 4 October 2021 (UTC)
- Keep. To the extent that this is the editors personal notes, it should be kept for them indefinitely. Even if the user is confirmed to have died, we do not delete their notes.
- It is, however, a template athat they used on many pages for a good reason. Subst all the transclusions. —SmokeyJoe (talk) 21:34, 5 October 2021 (UTC)
- Keep Clutter on talk pages should be handled via archiving, not deleting. Furthermore, unused/outdated/historical/junk content should be left as is (or marked historical), not deleted, as that isn't a reason why the content needs to be removed from the public eye. — csc-1 17:45, 6 October 2021 (UTC)
- Keep per csc and joe — Rhododendrites talk \\ 23:02, 9 October 2021 (UTC)
- Keep per above. If you're really bothered by this template cluttering up a certain talk page, just archive it. Extraordinary Writ (talk) 00:07, 12 October 2021 (UTC)
