New users who aren't sure what they're doing? Not sure, just remove the AfC template like you did and move on. There are a ton of pages in userspace right now. I move them if they look legitimate (even if it's a decline) or just remove the template if they look like nonsense. I've added {{userspacedraft}} to a few to help out the user. I've also come across a few that were blatant advertising and reported them to WP:UAA. (talk|contrib)
