If I interpreted the guideline correctly, if this article is deleted, then its deleted content may not be held in any userspace.

You are again glossing over the word indefinitely, which I tried to emphasize. ie, you can hold it for some time, but not forever. Is there some problem you have with asking the user first, or politeness? If the user wishes to keep it in user-space for a while, normally this isn't a problem, even if it is, strictly speaking, against some rule. You must understand, this is not about policy, or guidelines at all, but rather about how we treat user-space, and, by extension, users. Assume Good Faith and Civility, if you don't mind.  The Steve  23:40, 18 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
OK, I notified the creator of the problem with his userpage as well as a small elaboration as to why his article may be deleted. Hopefully this solves at least some of our problems. v/r,

Thank you, that was all I wanted. The user has blanked his user page, as expected if you ask nicely, so all is settled.  The Steve  08:07, 20 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
