• Delete. As an Australian, I have never heard of it nor does Google show any evidence of its existence. Furthermore the article is nonsensical. I quote "Barrelanza n, baral-anza: A semi-religious festival held just prior to Christmas where those with big mouths repay bets lost during the year by providing beer to adoring friends. Barrelanza has it’s heritage dating back almost 2000 years when St Peter bet Jesus some loaves of bread and fish (and a goblet of Nazareth Draught) that he could not rise from the dead. Down and out on the Friday, St Peter looked home and hosed until Jesus’ superb turn-around on the Sunday. It cost St Peter, Barrelanza was born and the rest is history."

• Couldn't an admin speedy delete this as patent nonsense? Snottygobble | Talk 00:32, 27 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Unfortunately, no. To qualify as utter nonsense, it has to be less than a complete sentance, or complete gibberish. Bullshit does not qualify as utter nonsense, so we have to delete normally. Saberwyn 01:59, 27 October 2005 (UTC)
