[edit] The American Card Catalog

I only created this article to apease a troll who was using this to clutter up another article with needless information. Non-notable, unrefrenced, hell not even an ISBN or LOC cite! Ponch's Disco 06:14, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

• Delete It is a good idea not to feed the trolls and Tecmobowl (talk · contribs · logs · block user · block log) is part of the Spotteddogs/Scott Brown network of them! TV Newser Tipline 06:28, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
• Delete as per above. Makgraf 15:15, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
• Strong Keep: From a quick Google search, this seems to be quite a reputable publication. http://www.psacard.com/lingo.chtml devotes an acronym, ACC, to the catalog. T206 is a famous name that was coined by this catalog. I don't know what all the yelling and screaming is about with Tecmobowl but, frankly, even if he is Spotteddogsdotorg, he's contributing a lot more useful info than 95% of the people here. I'm getting sick of the attacks. —Wknight94 (talk) 15:24, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per above. It should also be noted that Tecmobowl removed the AFD notice from the article [1] calling it vandalism and has removed every vandalism notice I have put on his talk page. OBILI ® ± 15:31, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Probably because he's sick of this bizarre campaign you all have going against him. TV Newser has been blocked twice now and I think more blocks may be coming. Closing admin should keep the vote shopping in mind too. —Wknight94 (talk) 15:39, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
    • Er, I asked him why the ACC article existed (saying it was listcruft) [2] and then he mentioned to me that he was putting it up for deletion. That's not "vote shopping". Makgraf 19:10, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
    • You make it sound as if there is a conspiracy against Tecmobowl. I would say he is a vandal, according to my reading of the Wikipedia vandalism standards. Tecmobowl removes content from articles that should not be removed and removes vandalism warnings from his talk page. There is no conspiracy and I feel the problem is Tecmobowl.

      • I'll discuss the overall situation at the WP:RFI which has already been opened under Tecmobowl's name. As far as this AFD is concerned, it's shaping up to be a witch hunt (or a WP:MEAT attack) and the vote stacking I linked to above bears that out. —Wknight94 (talk) 16:45, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
      • Nothing disallows his removal of warnings from his talk page, and readding them is probably vandalism itself. This has been discussed repeatedly, and attempted changes to add it to policy have failed. -- Consumed Crustacean (talk) 16:54, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
