Copy of mainspace article not desirable per COPIES Legacypac (talk) 20:22, 16 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: I don't see anything wrong with a copy in userspace for editing purposes, but this has been sitting for 5 years. Chrisw80 (talk) 08:35, 17 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Copy of What? Charles Steffen I guess, but please make it easier for your reviewers. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 12:46, 18 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
It is not a copy at all. Please don't make misleading references. It is a broken history. Either history merge or redirect the userpage. History merge is overkill because there is no unattributed author. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 12:50, 18 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Charles Steffen. North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 17:58, 20 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to mainspace article Charles Steffen. This is the standard way to deal with a duplication in userspace. Please read the instructions at the top of the "Miscellany for deletion" page (the page you are looking at now): "Note that we do not delete user subpages merely to "clean up" userspace. Please only nominate pages that are problematic under our guidelines." And under WP:STALE, stale drafts should only be deleted if "problematic even if blanked," which is not true here.Fagles (talk) 13:27, 6 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
