[edit] Banned list

There is no actual "banned list" such as the one postulated in this article, it's entirely an Original Research construct based on a POV assumption. wikipediatrix 04:00, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

• Delete No references, and an article name/term that is unclear as to what it refers to. LinaMishima 04:30, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
• Delete — per WP:NEO, WP:OR and basic cruft. External links in the article have nothing to do with the topic either. SynergeticMaggot 04:36, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
• Merge with comedian without menitioning "banned list" as a concept. It is well-know that comedians avoid certain topics. However, there is no named concept as such. -- Koffieyahoo 04:42, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

Actually, contrary to the text, many comedians have made a point of doing 9-11 jokes of deliberately poor taste (most notably Gilbert Gottfried), and Holocaust jokes are also not uncommon (Even Jon Stewart did one when he hosted the Oscars) . wikipediatrix 05:35, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
