[edit] Wikigovernment

Wikipedia is not a place for original research. Sad, in a way, as a "wikigovernment" couldn't possibly be worse than some forms of government that have actually been tried. Ken 13:05, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

  • Delete nice idea though, would go great on a personal homepage. Unfortunately, there's nothing that makes it look encyclopedic. Friday 14:27, 14 July 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete or Userfy - interesting and a nice idea, but its original research. Thryduulf 17:06, 14 July 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete unless a real-life example shows up. (Wasn't Marxism supposed to lead to an all-volunteer government?) Peter Grey 19:51, 14 July 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete nice idea though --jonasaurus 21:32, 14 July 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete since Wikipedia is not a democracy :) Radiant_>|< 08:52, July 15, 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep, pending further information. Are we certain that this article is a joke? I find it entirely plausible that a movement like this actually exists somewhere in significant numbers. --Dfranke
    • A Google test shows a grand total of 12 hits in web pages, and no hits in groups, for the term Wikigovernment. While not always conclusive (I do recognize the Google bias concept) in this case I think it's a good indicator. Ken 14:07, July 16, 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete - joke - Tεxτurε 20:49, 19 July 2005 (UTC)
  • I'd vote if I could stop laughing... Almafeta 22:43, 21 July 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep for several reasons:
  1. Even if this is a joke it's a very good one and is a great Easter Egg in Wikipedia.
  2. If tweaked/expanded a bit it could look like a professional article.
  3. Let's consider it serious for a second. In the Information Age this not that far from possible as one might think.
