[edit] Cake Prophecy
tagged as speedy, but does not seem to fit a speedy cat. This is, however, a description of some patently non-notable fiction,and also appears to fail WP:NOR (and quite possibly WP:NFT) Just zis Guy, you know? [T]/[C] AfD? 16:41, 29 January 2006 (UTC)
- Delete. The books sound interesting, but Wikipedia can only dedicate articles to novels that are published and well-circulated. There are better places on the web to promote your work, anyway. ×Meegs 01:29, 30 January 2006 (UTC)
- Delete, nn nonsense. incog 00:16, 31 January 2006 (UTC)
Actually I have seen the first novel published, although only in Western Australia. Maybe it is going mainstream soon? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 61.69.205.7 (talk • contribs)
- Delete as junk. Stifle 16:50, 31 January 2006 (UTC)
- This is not junk, but if it doesn't belong in Wikipedia, say so. The author probably took an hour to write it, you hopefully took a minute to read it, and I suggest it's worth 15 seconds to give a real reason for deletion instead of just insulting the author, who contributed in good faith. ×Meegs 18:42, 31 January 2006 (UTC)
- Delete above comment is far too kind. 15 seconds is all it takes to see that this falls into WP:NOT. Definitely doesn't belong on WP - tells of books which only exist in author's mind. Camillus (talk) 01:34, 4 February 2006 (UTC)
- As you may know, I am broadly in favour of userfying well-intentioned but naive articles (assuming good faith, obv.) like this and autobiographies, per WP:BITE. If a consensus emerges to delete and I end up closing the AfD I will probably do that. - Just zis Guy, you know? [T]/[C] 21:15, 31 January 2006 (UTC)
- Delete and userfy, because of notability issues. --kingboyk 00:08, 1 February 2006 (UTC)
- Delete per all above. Royboycrashfan 01:31, 4 February 2006 (UTC)
- Delete, straddles the line between fiction and patent nonsense. People can spend 6 years writing fiction if they want. This still won't be where to put it and no amount of unsigned desperate rescue attempts will change that. ++Deiz 02:19, 4 February 2006 (UTC)
