[edit] Encyclopedia Of Stupid

This site does not appear notable (WP:WEB) outside of a rather limited sub-community. Additionally this article falls well foul of WP:V and is likely in conflict with WP:NOR. As well, it is very likely that this article meets the requirements for vanity deletion (see the specific vanity reason on WP's deletion policy) as there are very likely editors who edit on Encyclopedia of Stupid who concurrently edit the Wikipedia article that corresponds to it (in conflict of interest).

• Comment Four wikis with no sources are up at the same time in order for wikipedia to gain a prescedence about this. Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Encyclopædia_Dramatica_(3rd_nomination) Wikipedia:Parodies/Wickerpedia (MFD discussion) Kamelopedia (AfD discussion) Encyclopedia Of Stupid (AfD discussion). Also please note Uncyclopedia has no sources, as well. Hardvice 11:16, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

• Delete Even though it passes the Google test it is a factor of 10 times smaller than Encyclopedia Dramatica. Furthermore, of the first 30 results the first 6 are from Wikipedia, the subject itself or ED (as well as another two) and the rest are irrelevant or blog (related) sites.
