[edit] Wacky
Dicdef, already transwiki'd. Delete. Taco Deposit | Talk-o to Taco 23:04, May 1, 2005 (UTC)
- Redirect Wacky Races. --Tony Sidaway|Talk 23:10, 1 May 2005 (UTC)
Delete, I doubt anyone would expect Wacky to come up with anything at all, let alone Wacky Races.

Master Thief Garrett 05:58, 2 May 2005 (UTC)- It's an encyclopedia. Type Wacky and you'd expect to see the word used in a reasonable context. Wacky Races inhabited a time when the word Wacky had traction with 8-14-year-olds, who now happen to be rather mature adults. --Tony Sidaway|Talk 23:53, 1 May 2005 (UTC)
- Ah, as a substitute result! Thaaaat makes sense. Yes you're quite right. I remember Wacky Races well... hehehe... Master Thief Garrett 00:05, 2 May 2005 (UTC)

- Delete, dictionary definition. Megan1967 05:18, 2 May 2005 (UTC)
- Delete as already-transwikied dicdef. No redirect even though I was a Wacky Races fan, back in the day. If WP were to include cutesy humor when it's not 01-April, I would support the redirect as a sort of "I'm Feeling Lucky"-button adventure, but that's not the case. Barno 15:47, 2 May 2005 (UTC)
