Erisism

Discordian hoax with a single perpetrator. Transwiki to the Encyclopedia Discordia—failing that, zap out of existence. Fnord. JRM 14:05, 2004 Nov 30 (UTC)

Amendment: recommend against redirect just to prevent recreation; "Erisism" just isn't anything (nonsense redirects may be slightly less bad than nonsense articles, but still...) JRM 14:16, 2004 Nov 30 (UTC)

Keep Please I would ask that you do not delete my article.I would like to say that I truly am an Erisian and it is my religion. This is no hoax and I am truly upset that others find this article as useless, which its writing has been a serious allotment of my own personal time. If this is voted to be deleted, then I ask that I am given enough time to retrieve my work. It seems that you cannot respect my beliefs enough to even tolerate them. I shall remove my sigs from the article, that was merely an honest mistake by a new Wiki user, I thought that the articles that you do that you should have some information on who complied it. I leave it in the hands of the admins, if anyone wishs to bring this matter up then you can email me on wiseguyhec@hotmail.com. --by WiseGuy H.E.C. 19:00, 30 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Amendment: I have checked through the external links and they are more relevant and work correctly.

Amendment: I have also double checked the accuracy of the article and have updated it so it is totally correct.

Amendment: I have removed my signiture from the article, my mistake that one.

• Delete (with prejudice). Additional reasons: vanity, plus the above claim that the article is "totally correct". --MarkSweep 22:24, 30 Nov 2004 (UTC)

• Delete. You can state that you are truly an Erisian on your user page. or on another website, but not in an encyclopedia article. RSpeer 22:28, Nov 30, 2004 (UTC)

• Delete. While i do not think that this is a hoax, i do think that Wikipedia does not need to have a page on a religion whose members couldn´t fill a basement. Just because it´s true doesn´t mean it´s notable. --Handel 22:40, 30 Nov 2004 (UTC)
