Delete - per Ameliorate, an 8 month old copy of the article is basically useless, and since they copied the rendered text rather than the wikitext, it was useless 8 months ago as well. Mr.Z-man22:51, 3 March 2009 (UTC)reply
Delete as outdated and useless, although I wouldn't be opposed to leaving a polite note per A.B.--I just don't think it has to happen beforehand.

WP:UP: "You can use your user page to help you to use Wikipedia more effectively ... It is also good for experimenting with markup (that is, as a personal sandbox)." Looks to me that's what the user is doing - a personal sandbox. Who knows, they (or someone else deleted on the back of this precedent) may come back. I'd hate to have my userpage subject to censure by the community and I think there is no value to Wikipedia of going down this route.

Regretful Delete Not often I'll !vote to delete a user page (outside attack, copyvio) - but single edit user in summer of 08? They are either gone, or under another name by now. —
