[edit] Wikipedia:Meaningless connection

We don't need to catalogue every possible way of vandalising, I'm not quite sure what the point behind this page is. --W(t) 17:54, 2005 Jun 11 (UTC)

  • Delete. Actually, it wouldn't hurt to have a catalog of common forms of vandalism, so folks would have some guidance on things to look for. That being said, this ain't it. -- BD2412 talk 19:19, 2005 Jun 11 (UTC)
  • Keep. If this kind of vandalism never, or hardly ever, happens, edit the page to say so. --Tony Sidaway|Talk 03:11, 12 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep Agree with Tony Sidaway. "Meaningless" has a propensity to be a subjective thing and I expect only extreme cases would find all agreeing that a particular connection is "meaningless". Therefore it is a subject of "vandalism" which is valid (although I expect incidences will more often than not be a case of mis-guided-ness than vandalism").
  • Delete I don't think the article makes sense. Even with a list of vandalism methods, we don't need articles like this for each one. --Xcali 05:41, 12 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. this should exist only as material in a page called Wikipedia: Methods of vandalism or some such. The category Wikipedia Vandalism does not include any other articles about methods. Until there is an attempt at a more comprehensive approach to the subject, this article as such is meaningless. (Certainly no one is going to be searching under the term "Meaningless connection"). carmeld1 01:05, 13 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. I'm not convinced Meaningless connections should be called vandalism. If it really is vandalism, then it should be mentioned on Wikipedia:Vandalism, not on its own page. Angela. 06:42, Jun 20, 2005 (UTC)
