*munch* Now, who wants to call someone else a stupid fuck next?

That depends if someone want to act like a stupid fuck or not.

Yeah, I agree with Girdag. Andrevan, The fact you don't know anything about Yahtzee or his works apparently does not void your right to judge how "notable" they are on Wikipedia, but it does everywhere else. Hence why you're being put on a pedestal to be mocked as a wanker. A sensible person would at least have looked around the site a bit.

Case in point: Some admin recently deleted this article. As soon as I pointed out to him the myriad number of references in the media it had been given, available to view on the website, he put it back up immediately.

That guy was a mongbotty. For acting in the same manner, so are you.

That was almost exactly the opposite of what I said. I agree with Prodian, I just couldn't be arsed to type that much out.

And I agree with Adam. Let's split up into two factions now, shall we? Let's pretend we're actually fighting over something, and we will see who takes it seriously, then laugh at them. Should be fun.

Oh come on Girdag, it's obvious the guy's a wanker. That's all I'm saying. I couldn't care less if Yahtzee's articles were deleted.

Andrevan... You googled your own name to find this thread didn't you?. C'mon, admit it, we've all done it before. There's no shame in it. *sniggers*


I actually saw the page in the HTTP referrers for my website, but I have Googled myself before, I won't deny it.

Anyway, thanks for your post, Prodian. Also, I don't think you realized this, but the Ben Croshaw article was kept, the vote came down to keep, it's still there.

But I haven't deleted any pages, I merely put their deletion up for discussion. You acted rightly in telling that admin about his erroneous speedy deletion. However, I was not wrong in nominating those articles for deletion.

He's right, kids. It's not like he stepped up and went "I NO LIKE THIS. DELETED!" He saw some articles that may or may not constitute content that isn't typically acceptable on Wikipedia, and said "Well, we'll see what people think. Maybe it can go." just like ANY admin/mod would. And you're all entitled to disagree! That's why Wikipedia works as a democracy, where users and administrators alike are able to determine the content that remains on the website. But since few (if any) of you actually made a legitimate argument in all of this, I'm amazed that ANY of the articles in question remained intact. None of you really made much point here. You just started blasting this guy's nuts into a pulp for doing his job on that website.
Maybe it's just me, but this mostly seems to be a whole lot of sycophantic bleating about Yahtzee's work, rather than an actual effort to preserve some essentially useless Wikipedia pages that should've been compiled into a single article to begin with.

But H-Man, blatent braindead sycophancy is an FR tradition now! You could no more dispense with it than you could any other FR tradition! Like... erm... Yahtzee being pissed off at all the braindead sycophancy?
When you lose your calm, you feed your anger.

I like bleating.

It makes my toes tingle.
