Revision as of 13:13, 30 January 2008

It has been suggested that the content of the page this talk page accompanies should not be a separate article on the wiki.

  • Please discuss below whether the content of the page should have its own article. Remember to consider ways the content could be brought up to the wiki's standards before making this determination.

If it is decided that the content should not have its own article, then the following additional issues need to be addressed:

  • Whether to merge the content with another page or remove it entirely.
  • Whether to redirect the leftover page or delete it outright.
 

Deletion

I don't see how these occurances are notable. "Best/worst X ever" is a common phrase. There is nothing special or funny about "best Decemberween ever", for example. The article should be deleted. Loafing 00:06, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

Not if those other two articles are merged. Otherwise, get rid of it, pronto. --Sysrq868 00:20, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

I read the entire article, and I must agree that this "gag" is very plain and unconnected. Delete. Bad Bad Guy 14:34, 28 January 2008 (UTC)
Could someone go add some links to this article? I'd do it myself but I don't want the author to bear a grudge against me. Bad Bad Guy 13:13, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
