Well, most people seem to be strongly in favour of keeping their user

What is the worst possible thing that could happen if no one else
could see your user page?
Apart from a couple of vague references to babel boxes, no one seems
to have indicated much that would be lost without a public userpage.

If you start deleting userpages or making them private, a couple things will
happen:
(1) it will be harder to track people using their userspace for
inappropriate purposes
(2) people will start moving their userboxes to their talk pages
(3) you will start to suggest that we get rid of user talk pages too,
suggesting people use IRC or email to communicate.
