Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Lockergnome forums

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Article lockergnome forums listed on WP:VFD July 1 to July 7 2004, consensus was to delete. Discussion:

OK, this was listed on VFD back in March. Apparently the consensus was to keep it and clean it up (I say "apparently" because whoever removed it from the VFD page after voting didn't copy the discussion into Talk:Lockergnome forums like they should have, and it's now way too far in the past to find in the VFD history). Anyway, it's been sitting on Wikipedia:Cleanup for a couple of months now without anyone touching it, the guy who created the article in the first place has never made a single edit since so I don't expect he's going to clean it up, so, basically, I don't think it's ever likely to improve. So I'm listing it here again. —Stormie 04:26, Jul 1, 2004 (UTC)

  • Delete. Pisses me off when this happens. What really needs cleanup is the newly-created Lockergnome. -- Cyrius| 04:39, 1 Jul 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete both per reasons stated. I mean, what the hey kind of word is "embiggen?" - Lucky 6.9 05:47, 1 Jul 2004 (UTC)
    • It's a perfectly cromulent word. -- Cyrius| 06:12, 1 Jul 2004 (UTC)

  • Delete. Website advert. Did this really escape VfD once before? No matter, kill it now. NEXT! Andrewa 19:16, 1 Jul 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete both lockergnome and lockergnome forums. That said, the site's Alexa rank is 16,300 and it's (apparently) been around since 1996, so it might be worth having an article iff someone creates a real article that tells us why this site merits an entry here. -Sean Curtin 20:15, 1 Jul 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete both: the users of those sites needn't search for information about themselves on Wikipedia, and Wikipedia needn't direct users there. (Isn't this just wallowing in their own crapulence.) 00:11, 4 Jul 2004 (UTC)

  • Delete both, we don't need to advertise this crap. -- Graham ☺ | Talk 11:10, 5 Jul 2004 (UTC)
