[edit] Kamelopedia
This site does not appear notable (WP:WEB) outside of a rather limited sub-community. Additionally this article falls well foul of WP:V and is likely in conflict with WP:NOR. As well, it is very likely that this article meets the requirements for vanity deletion (see the specific vanity reason on WP's deletion policy) as there are very likely editors who edit on Encyclopedia of Stupid who concurrently edit the Wikipedia article that corresponds to it (in conflict of interest).

- Comment Four wikis with no sources are up at the same time in order for wikipedia to gain a prescedence about this. Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Encyclopædia_Dramatica_(3rd_nomination) Wikipedia:Parodies/Wickerpedia (MfD discussion) Kamelopedia (AfD discussion) Encyclopedia Of Stupid (AfD discussion). Also please note Uncyclopedia has no sources, as well. Hardvice 11:16, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
- Delete. I've seen this mentioned in a few newspaper articles referencing Uncyclopedia, but not knowing where they are, and not seeing the references in the article, I'm voting to scrap it. Captainktainer * Talk 11:49, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
- Uncyclopedia has not been nominated for deletion. The article being discussed here is Kamelopedia. Uncle G 12:33, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
- Or did you mean that you had seen Kamelopedia mentioned in those newspaper articles? Uncle G 12:35, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
- That is precisely what I meant. Sorry for the confusion :-( Captainktainer * Talk 13:03, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
- It was my misunderstanding. Uncle G 14:47, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

- Delete A series of in-jokes I don't get. No evidence of significance, may be the result of the relentless expunging of weblinks and redlinks from list of wikis. Just zis Guy you know? 13:14, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
- Weak delete per nom. The German Wikipedia's article provides one reference, namely this; I don't know whether that would satisfy the verifiability and original research requirements, though? — Haeleth Talk 15:57, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
- Move Does not belong in main namespace. Should be moved to Wikipedia:Parodies/Kamelopedia. Dgies 17:55, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
- Delete nn parody of WP GassyGuy 20:42, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
- Delete, not notable, doesn't meet WP:WEB unlike the other contentious pit of rattlesnakes up for deletion right now. RFerreira 03:44, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
- Move per Dgies. I think the Wikipedia:Parodies page is an appropriate place to keep stuff like this around, without compromising our core policies. -GTBacchus(talk) 09:22, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
- Move per Dgies and GTBacchus. (→Netscott) 10:34, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
- Move. Ashibaka tock 12:00, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
- Delete per nom. Laugh ? Well, no, actually, I didn't. No objection to a move, but it's not my preferred solution. Angus McLellan (Talk) 21:04, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
- Delete in a bad mood and it didn't cheer me up. Ste4k 04:10, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
- Delete not notable AT ALL. I am not sure why someone even bothered to write the article aside from possible vanity. --Bouquet 08:08, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
- Comment: The German Wikipedia has far more stringent rules on notability than the English one, yet they've kept this article (de:Kamelopedia). Angela. 13:30, 23 July 2006 (UTC)
- Move to Wikipedia:Parodies/Kamelopedia per Dgies. --Zoz (t) 15:46, 23 July 2006 (UTC)
- Delete per nom. KarenAnn 16:11, 23 July 2006 (UTC)
- Delete per nom. I'd be OK with the suggested move as well. -Hit bull, win steak(Moo!) 00:13, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
