Well, most people seem to be strongly in favour of keeping their user pages for storing work in progress or their favourite links. My next question:
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.
In case you missed it the first time, deleting the userpages of my accounts would eliminate the following:
* The ownership statement for OrphanBot. * The description of what OrphanBot does and does not do. * OrphanBot's current task status. * OrphanBot's current development status. * The statement that all my edits are multi-licensed into the public domain.
Also, in the past, it would have eliminated:
* My criteria for the use of fair-use images in featured articles (now mostly part of [[Wikipedia:Fair use]]).
