We have a little issue on the fr.wikipedia, and I wondered whether that kind of pb already occurred to you (probably did), and what you would do about it.
Some time ago, a new user, Mulot, joined us. She started many articles all related to religion. These articles were apparently results of collaborations between her and other people she is related to. Very valuable stuff imho. However, it appears that she doesnot fit with the wiki project very well (hum, she got pretty hot with our comments and modifications, though frankly light). Today, she just blew the lid off (so to speak, would you say that ?). Put all her articles in the list �to be deleted�. And said she wanted all of them to be deleted, as well as the talk pages.
When she said she would delete all if we did not do it (tomorrow, Paris time 10:41, LOL)., Aoineko answered of course she was not the owner of the articles, so (beside the technical issue of deletion) she had no �right� upon them. She, then, threatened that the articles could �reveal� themselves copyrighted.
This afternoon, she started to delete 5 pages, her personal one, her discussion page, three discussion pages and an article. Aoineko, fortunately, reverted the vandalism.
So the questions I would ask
- what rights does she have on pages ?
I specifically think of her personal page. Is a personal page somebody�s property ? Intuitively, I would say yes, and I would say someone has the right to delete his own page as well as the talk page attached. What is the policy about that ?
What is the �policy� about discussion pages ? Is one�s content of a discussion page personal or not ?
- what can we do against a deletion campaign ? Is there a solution other than Aoineko keeping restoring pages until she gets tired ? (in case you ask, she is probably not on a fixed IP)
- what about the threat of the articles finally revealing themselves copyrighted ?
To say the least, I am very troubled
