[edit] Wrath of the barclay

Not notable. Forumcruft. -- Karada 11:16, 4 August 2005 (UTC)

transwiki to wikicities or something? Although it might be forumcruft, it is a useful explanation for over 3,000 forum users so there must be a place for it somewhere.--Caverider 13.50, 4 August 2005

  • Strong Delete. Forumcruft, not notable. Alexa rank 2,972,997. In response to the poster above, it would make far more sense for the forum to host its own list of trivia and in-jokes than to foist it on WP or Wikicities. Things like "Gary Holt Gary Holt Gary Holt Gary Holt Gary Holt Gary Holt Gary Holt Gary Holt Gary Holt Gary Holt Gary Holt Gary Holt (a typical post by Hong Kong NCFC fan XXL16)" obviously are only of interest to those who post there, and are neither interesting, important, or understandable by anyone else. As for the "3000 forum users" bit, the article itself states that there aren't really that many, and that many of them are sockpuppets (see the third in-joke part).

OK, we've moved it now so you can delete it ifyou really want to *huff* :(.--Caverider 14.38, 4 August 2005

  • Delete, I agree this is not notable (particularly in its current form). I wouldn't have a problem with a smaller entry just describing the site but I suppose that that's just going to end up as a stub. --Zootm 12:58, 4 August 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete - with the words "Barclay" and "cruft" I expected this to be Star Trek:The Next Generation fanstuff! Grutness...wha? 03:13, 5 August 2005 (UTC) (who wrote then discovered he'd linked to a southern African language wikipedia!)
