We typically blank IP talk pages, rather than keeping archives - some well over a decade old - of mostly routine warnings, which are anyway available in page history. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing);

Delete - Suggesting that we delete the IP address would be misplaced humor.

Blank per
WP:ATD, unless there is a reason Wikipedians should not be allowed to access that talk page history. --

Keep - I don't understand why we would want to delete the long history of an IP's vandalism and abuse. How does that help anyone? These warnings make it easy for someone to understand how long and how often an IP is misbehaving, without having to dig through their contribution history. Granted, it's probably not terribly useful to know what this IP was up to back in 2007, but it isn't hurting anyone to keep it.

Keep per Scottywong. Does no harm and might be useful or simply interesting; no reason to delete it. —
