Weak keep. It doesn't look like a real article (which is why the misguided mainspace piece was deleted), but it's harmless on a userpage. IMHO, discussing these sorts of pages isn't really the best use of the community's limited time and effort.

Strongest possible delete per
WP:DENY. Vandalism is no laughing matter. Enshrining pages such as this one (linked from one of several deletion log entries for
Mathematical calculations in cake) in
WP:DAFT just encourages more vandals to flock to Wikipedia. Furthermore, the page is "extensive unrelated content" which must be deleted. Wikipedia has many naïve readers, and the general writing style of this user page, along with its use of standard section headings such as "Shockness", could easily confuse them. Who knows what could happen, if someone followed the advice in this fake article. Even if no one else notices it, Giordano xx could come back and try again to insert this into the article space. So often these pages are just marked with {{Humour}} or {{NOINDEX}}; when that happens, the vandals have won. —
