- Comment I made a bit of a mistake sending this AfD since this has been deleted and recreated, it qualifies for speedy deletion. Sorry, it could have been gone already. -WCFrancis 02:50, 15 September 2005 (UTC)

- Does not apply here:
- A substantially identical copy, by any title, of a page that was deleted according to the deletion policy. Note that: * Administrators faced with a recreation of previously speedily deleted content must determine that it did in fact meet a criterion for speedy deletion and had been appropriately deleted before they delete it again;
- It was speedied as nonsense, but this is not nonsense (in the wikipedia sense ;) -- (☺drini♫|☎) 02:56, 15 September 2005 (UTC)
- Does not apply here:
God! Your not even giving me a chance!

- Here's your chance: put it on Uncyclopedia, which allows all sort of stuff, whether original research, verifiable or just made up stuff. Check Wikipedia's deletion policy to see why this has been nominated here. See policies and guidelines for further guidance on what fits here. -WCFrancis 03:02, 15 September 2005 (UTC)
- Delete as unencyclopedic. Joyous (talk) 02:58, 15 September 2005 (UTC)
- Move to Wikibooks, or wherever in Wikimedia how to guides are supposed to go? Though it seems that there is potential for a real encyclopedia article on the topic. 68.20.28.234 03:05, 15 September 2005 (UTC)
- Abstain. I like it, but WP policies dont allow this. BTW Try [1] for howtos like this. --2mcmGespräch 03:16, 15 September 2005 (UTC)
- Delete, as Wikipedia is not a how-to guide (nor is it a list of Strong Bad E-mails, although that e-mail was technically called 'lady...ing' and is not the subject of this article). Lord Bob 03:49, 15 September 2005 (UTC)
Thanks who said abstain, even thought it will prolly be deleted, that really means a lot to me. And, yeah, that Strong Bad email is what inspired me. But, correct me if I'm wrong, but arn'e ther how-to giuds here? Like how to biuld you oun compy? I've at least seen that one. One more thing before I go to bed: I know it's kinda short, but I was planning on adding a lot more, but I don't want to put in the work if it will be deleted. I must beg once more to give it a chance, if its still up tomorrow, I'll improve on it.
- If such articles do exist, then they too should be deleted. WP:NOT states that "Wikipedia is not instructive. While Wikipedia has descriptions of persons, places, and things, Wikipedia does not contain advice (legal, medical, or otherwise), suggestions, or how-to's. This includes tutorials, walk-throughs, instruction manuals, and recipes. Wikibooks is a Wikipedia sister-project which is better suited for such things." You aren't the first well-meaning person to put up a guide on Wikipedia and you won't be the last, but, unfortunately, that stuff doesn't fit within the scope of the project. That said, I do encourage you to find a place to put this guide and any others like it (Wikibooks, I believe, does how-to guides as mentioned above). I, of all people, could probably use a guide like this. :P Lord Bob 04:15, 15 September 2005 (UTC)

- Delete. Wikipedia is not here to provide advice on how to date. Sjakkalle (Check!) 07:06, 15 September 2005 (UTC)
- Delete as badly-written, POV, near-nonsense and unencyclopedic.Vizjim 15:25, 15 September 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. Dammit, this is flamethrower engingeering all over again. I'd love to keep it, but it's in clear violation of policy. It's times like this that I wish there was something in between Wikipedia and Uncyclopedia. Maybe it could go to Wikibooks. --Apyule 00:08, 16 September 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. Not even appropriate for slang. .::Imdaking::. TLK | Y! 05:41, 16 September 2005 (UTC)
Thanks for at least liking the idea, sorry it's agianst the rules...But I have a question, I expanded a stub, and in case you wondering, it was NOT nonsense, it was pretty good, but I checked it today to add somthing, and it was back to the stub, what did I do wrong there?
- This is not the place for this kind of question - please see my talk page. -WCFrancis 18:21, 16 September 2005 (UTC)
