[edit] Mutney

Patent nonsense William Avery 10:59, 29 August 2005 (UTC)

• Can you explain why exactly this is nonsense? If it is as patent as you claim, you can have it speedied, but that would require some additional explanation. - 131.211.210.14 11:10, 29 August 2005 (UTC)

Delete. This is whimsical nonsense. 'Parlucknab' Googles only to thsi article. Eddie.willers 11:24, 29 August 2005 (UTC)

• Comment: Can't believe I missed that. Still, I'd love to see some more info on mutney and how (non)sensical it is. Just because the company fails to google, doesn't mean Mutney will either. - Mgm|^(talk) 11:29, August 29, 2005 (UTC)

• • Puhleaze! This article is total nonsense! 16th century monastic recipe indeed! 'Mango chutney' (a mixture of tamarinds, mangoes and spices) hails from India. Why would anyone try to 'improve' it by the addition of mustard and/or stilton cheese? DELETE Eddie.willers 11:34, 29 August 2005 (UTC)

Chutney is a 19th century word, according to COD. Stilton Cheese is no preservative! William Avery 11:40, 29 August 2005 (UTC)

• Delete - I don't believe it exists, based on the fact that if I google for 'mutney "mango chutney"' I get few (if any) valid references. Good VFD. Halo 11:47, 29 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Yep, those are pretty good reasons. (I was just being careful). - Mgm|^(talk) 12:07, August 29, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete as unverifiable unless good verifiable evidence is presented prior to expiration of discussion. The "Smutney" remark is, I think, the giveaway that this is a joke, making it a borderline-speedy as newbie test. (This is probably not a good time to mention that "Mutney" was the narrator's wife's pet-name for the narrator in H. G. Wells' novel Tono-Bungay. Although I am an H. G. Wells fan I think an article on the pet-name for a character in a novel would quality as fancruft). Dpbsmith (talk) 14:36, 29 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete Interestingly, Parlucknab seems to be quite unknown on Google, except for a couple of encyclopedia links. Looks like a partially successful hoax to me. Groeck 21:02, 29 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete but it's funny as hell. good one. SaltyPig 00:31, 30 August 2005 (UTC)
