[edit] Bean Hunt

Non-notable novel event, likely invented by the author. Zocky 05:57, 20 November 2005 (UTC)

• Strong delete and request for disciplinary action 155.33.68.140 removed my vote. Durova 09:55, 21 November 2005 (UTC)
• Keep on Wikipedia -- though not an enormous event, it was popular among the participants and many more plan to participate in future years. It has also inspired a spin-off called the "Husky Hunt" which will be a scavenger hunt all over Northeastern University. It is legitimate and should be kept on Wikipedia —Preceding unsigned comment added by 155.33.68.170 (talk • contribs) 2005-11-20 17:15:32 (UTC)
• Leave it It seems like a truely fun event and I would love to start such an event on my own college campus. It would be great to have a record of all the different events to give people ideas on how to start their own hunt. Some of these ideas are brilliant and I would hate to lose such a great resource. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 155.33.68.142 (talk • contribs) 2005-11-21 05:27:55 (UTC)

But it's on your own college campus. Unless there's some other reason why you're posting from an IP address registered to Northeastern University? — Haeleth Talk 21:21, 24 November 2005 (UTC)

You don't have to lose the information, you can create a website with a free host like geocities. The problem is that this isn't verifiable and has no sources to check. - Mgm|^(talk) 09:09, 21 November 2005 (UTC)

• Delete. Sounds like fun, but definitely not encyclopedic, and probably not verifiable, either. -Colin Kimbrell 19:35, 22 November 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Sorry, guys, but even completely ignoring questions of notability (does an "annual" event that has apparently only happened once really belong in an encyclopedia?), this article cannot be kept on Wikipedia because it is unverifiable. — Haeleth Talk 21:21, 24 November 2005 (UTC)
