[edit] Atgeflu

Article describes Pope Atgeflü, a 17-year old founding father of the Church of the Exploding Sheep. This appears to be a way of entertaining classmates during A-level English lessons. Sliggy 14:47, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

Nominators cant vote Prashanthns 18:17, 29 October 2005 (UTC) Sorry for the strike-off in error. AfD Nominators can vote Prashanthns 18:54, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

Can you point me to the relevant guideline please? Also, if no-nominator-voting is true, someone needs to update the guidance text at the foot of WP:AFD/Today, which I was following. Sliggy 18:42, 29 October 2005 (UTC) Sliggy 23:25, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep. This is truly a amazing article whatever about the content it really shows the skill level among students that they are able to come up with a story like this. So what if it is for "entertaining classmates during A-level English lessons" we all can remember that time and i'm sure we would have liked somethink like this. GO ATGEFLU!!! kinsailor 16:06, 29 October 2005 (GMT)
  • Delete and BJAODN Even though I think that basic arithmetic should be the minimum criteria for people wanting to delete articles (2005 - 1978 = 17 / I'm sorry Sliggy go back to your seat - no icecream for you today). Besides, if you read the article it clearly states that the cult has been founded through a series of e-mails and I don't know about you but in my school they didn't have computers for A-level English (only good old-fashioned pen and paper). Besides it's the "Cult of the Exploding Sheep" not the Church. 129.31.73.9 15:15, 29 October 2005 (UTC) Page creator. Votes here only other edits. -- Sliggy 23:29, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

  • Delete. Utter rubbish. Lincolnite 16:36, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. Regardless of how hilarious fans think it is, regardless of the skill, and regardless of how memorable an inside joke it may be, it's NN and not encyclopedic. Devotchka 17:42, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Very well written and funny and all. But, not notable and not encyclopediac. Good Joke. Strong DeletePrashanthns 18:17, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete as per WP:V. While heads of real churches are notable, there is no evidence that he is. Possible BJAODN. Capitalistroadster 23:49, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. This is why we need a Speedy category for "obvious hoax or unencyclopedic nonsense". MCB 00:34, 31 October 2005 (UTC)
