[edit] Wwcarpen and Aghost

More examples of the "I can't be bothered..." kind of articles. Two articles weighing in at a total of 3 (three) sentences. "See also" indicates that they are related, text doesn't explain how. Neither article makes an attempt to establish notability. FWIW, there used to be a musician from Baltimore who went under the name WWCarpen; according to the article, "In 2005, wwcarpen died as a logical extension of his initial starting conditions.". Whatever that means. Rl 19:07, 17 May 2005 (UTC)

  • I'm guessing it was a way of referring to the fact that all which is born is born temporarily. Jeez, I didn't phrase that in a way much less unusual than Rl's way. Barno 19:30, 17 May 2005 (UTC)

  • Delete Wwcarpen per my musical group article policy and delete Aghost as vanity. Kelly Martin 03:07, May 18, 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete both. Not notable, vanity. Megan1967 06:53, 18 May 2005 (UTC)
  • I'd like to propose that since wikipedia is defined by reality, wikipedia can also define reality, thus giving an artist a chance to shape their own destiny. perhaps my argument is standard fare here, but i feel that no harm is done by wikipedia growing beyond where people feel it should naturally go. why would you cut all the flowers off a beautiful tree?
    • Above vote was by anonymous editor 66.92.46.119, who has been editing these and a couple of other articles. Barno 13:53, 18 May 2005 (UTC)
    • No harm, except destroying Wikipedia's very nature. Wikipedia does not exist to serve your promotional desires. -- Cyrius|✎ 01:14, 22 May 2005 (UTC)
  • Wwcarpen "has released" something, so he's alive. No, wait, he's dead. But how many people would notice the difference? Delete. I'm aghast at the WP activities of our friend aghost. -- Hoary 04:15, 2005 May 21 (UTC)
  • Delete both and ban the author as a vandal if he tries this sort of thing again. -- Cyrius|✎ 01:14, 22 May 2005 (UTC)
  • i plan on making more wiki pages for my other projects. im not interested in the world catching up to my ideas, they deserve to be in the wikipedia, when i feel they are ready. i think some serious consideration needs to be given to whether im a vandal or some kind of creationist before my account is deleted.

    • Comment: You're already making your mark, Aghost. No need to throw "creationism" into the mix. -- Hoary 15:53, 2005 May 22 (UTC)
it seems to me that you have thrown creationism into the mix. Aghost 18:24, 22 May 2005 (UTC)
