[edit] Runescape secret letters

Runescape secret letters (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View log)

Wikipedia is not a how-to guide. Also, this is a complete hoax. No sources were cited. Holding the alt key while typing the numbers are enough, not pressing alt twice. Only Wikipedia popped out on a hunt at Google. Alexius08 is welcome to talk about his contributions. 13:16, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

• Delete as gibberish/nonsense, wouldn't it have qualified for speedy?--Doug Weller (talk) 15:25, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

I speedied a similar titled article about a month ago by the same user, but they must have put up a fight for this one. Mr mark taylor (talk) 15:35, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

• Delete, gamecruft, per WP:NOT#HOWTO. JohnCD (talk) 20:21, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
• Delete as a "how to" one would not likely find in an encyclopedia or almanac. I could not find any sources with which to improve the article. Sources listed on the article are: "You can check this out and make sure that this is NOT a hoax by going to : Runescape.com and try to get some of the secret letters. Plus... haven't you ever wondered how people can make things like this: =Þ on Runescape? If you really don't believe me, then just try this and you will see that I wasn't lying." Thus, the article itself reads more like a talk page discussion. The article even includes a "Special Thanks" section that reads, "To the people who helped me find them and told me how to get them... thank you." I did fix the lead, but am unable to do much else.
