[edit] Mr Scally
- Article about a comic that doesn't appear to exist. No Google hits for "Mr Scally" + comic, the links on the page are dead, etc. Delete. Andre (talk) 08:10, August 13, 2005 (UTC)
Keep. I've seen the Mr Scally cartoons, and they're first rate - although it does seem that the links are dead - perhaps someone should look at this? --84.9.72.12 11:47, 13 August 2005 (UTC)Keep, I think those cartoons were deleted a while ago, but this page should remain as a historical tribute. Besides, it will exist to amuse both chav haters and Mr Stabby fans alike, being an amusing parody of the Mr Stabby series of cartoons.--80.47.172.91 11:54, 13 August 2005 (UTC)Keep. I've created an account especially to register my vote here, as I've been informed about this on the official Mr Scally website - so I'm sure more will come. --Potatomancer 11:55, 13 August 2005 (UTC)- The article is a simple pastiche of the Mr Stabby article. Witness the original authors' names changed to "goths" and "geggars", the domain name in the external hyperlinks changed to that of the "chavscum" web site, and the image changed to the image from chav. There is no evidence that there is, or ever was, an actual cartoon here. No rewrite candidates present themselves. Speedy delete as joke vandalism. Uncle G 12:40:56, 2005-08-13 (UTC)
- Agree with UncleG - Delete as joke Vandalism. --Celestianpower hab 13:12, 13 August 2005 (UTC)
- Appears to be nonexistent - all but one link in the article are broken (the remaining one doesn't seem to contain any cartoons). Delete, candidate for speedy deletion as hoax/vandalism. - Mike Rosoft 13:54, 13 August 2005 (UTC)

- Delete - I'd like to get rid of Mr Stabby too, what sort of notability is there? They just seem like 2nd rate newgrounds level flash, are they massively popular? - Hahnchen 15:24, 13 August 2005 (UTC)
Actually the Mr Stabby cartoons are immensely popular, most people I've met have heard of them and I even know of the existence of a Mr Stabby fan club. Personally I feel there is no good reason for deleting the Mr Stabby article, especially when a few dedicated fans have put some time and effort into refining the said article. I certainly can see to harm in its existence, all that deleting it will acheive would be to disappoint anyone who should look it up for information, only to find that there is none.--80.47.182.1 15:45, 13 August 2005 (UTC)A tricky one this. Whilst it is fairly obvious that this page was intended as a joke, I think we should leave it running as a "parody tribute" to the original Mr Stabby cartoons.Keep--Stabby 15:54, 13 August 2005 (UTC)- Speedy deleted as joke vandalism.
