[edit] The 10

Delete. Original research spin off on book called 100 most influential people or somesuch. This is just too witty for wiki. —Gaff ^ταλκ 03:44, 24 October 2005 (UTC)

• Delete as nonsense. --Metropolitan90 05:57, 24 October 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. OR, POV. The external link is for The 100, not The 10. freshgavinΓΛĿЌ  06:05, 24 October 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Even literary value minimal. Started off witty, then descended into sorority har-har. The Minister of War 10:08, 24 October 2005 (UTC)

• Delete as nonsense. Evident the moment goatse is mentioned. 23skidoo 01:25, 25 October 2005 (UTC)
  • I suppose you think the article on goatse should be deleted too? Believe it or not, goatse is an important part of modern culture, and has had quite an influence on the world. --199.79.168.160 06:22, 25 October 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. I don't get why people are so desperate to delete this article. It seems just as valid as the 100 article. Either keep both articles or delete both. --User:128.122.128.61 01:15, 25 October 2005 (UTC)
  • The 100 is an article about a notable book (notable in that it has spawned uncountable God-awful imitations and crap TV shows). The 10 is listcruft. - Just zis Guy, you know? 12:19, 25 October 2005 (UTC)
    • Listcruft. That's an interesting term. Did you just invent it?
      • No, it seems to be in common usage in these parts - Just zis Guy, you know? 08:19, 27 October 2005 (UTC)
• Patent nonsense. Delete. (Or should I say "deleet"?) - Mike Rosoft 09:23, 27 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Note from article's creator

This article is not meant as a joke, save for the honorable mentions part. It is intended to be a serious list of the top ten people in history. In the original The 100 list, the founder of Jainism is listed as one of the most influencial people of all time. Does anyone serious believe that he's influenced the world more than Goatse, or George Lucas, or John Byrne, or me and my friends and enemies for that matter? --User:199.79.168.160 12:07, 24 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Anonymous sock-puppetry

• Keep The article is a good idea. I'm not a big fan of most of the people lasted, but I HATE JAINISM DELETE THAT ARTICLE INSTEAD? --User:216.165.11.95 15:16, 24 October 2005 (UTC)
