[edit] Clout

probably a speedy candidate, but... (also created 3 times today). – ABCD 21:30, 5 Apr 2005 (UTC)

• I've tagged it as speedy three times; the first couple of times it was created by an anon. The third time the creator had opened an account of the same name, and I moved the page to User:Clout; unfortunately, the VfD appeared while I was doing it. If Clout (talk · contributions) recreates the article, then it could be VfDed again (though I do think that it's a speedy candidate), but could this VfD be lifted now that it's a User page?

• • It is a speedy candidate if it is recreated, since recreations of items that were VfD'ed can be speedied if deem fit to warrant it. Zscout370 00:27, 6 Apr 2005 (UTC)

i am sorry if this is prying, but I ask that you allow the definition to be left up for 48 hours until I can put up a proper link which decribes Clout more. thank you for your time

• Delete. It has been created four times, after two speedy deletions and one move to the creator's User page. It contains nothing that suggests that it's genuine, and the author (or authors) has had ammple time to produce something worthwhile. Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 21:38, 6 Apr 2005 (UTC)

it is genuine in the way that it is a real religion, other religions are allowed to be defined on this site, so i ask that clout is also given that right

• Delete. I tagged it as a speedy a couple of times, too, as nonsense. The author is removing the tags, or else recreating it, and has also vandalized a few other articles related to religion. --BM 17:22, 7 Apr 2005 (UTC)

• I've now deleted it a number of times (and its creator has vandalised my user page three times, and sent me abusive e-mails). The creator also vandalised other Wikipedia pages, and created another spoof article a cuple of times. He's now been banned for twenty-four hours, though he has at least two other accounts, so I'm not sure that that's a solution. Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 17:28, 7 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Are you sure that this person is only one person? mabey this is really a real religion and its followers have now chosen the time to speak out
