[edit] Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ook! programming language

Hi, you voted to keep this article as you saw no reason not to keep it. I have given several reasons at User:R. Koot/Esoteric programming languages#Esoteric programming languages, which I hope will cause you to reconsider your vote. Cheers, —Ruud 12:08, 1 April 2006 (UTC)

  • I see your points, but generally I am in favor of keeping articles rather than deleting them; since the Ook! language has references to both the Discworld articles and brainfuck, I think it's a reasonable article in its own right. As an example of an article I think shouldn't exist, I'm perfectly OK with the HQ9++ article redirecting to the HQ9+ article, since there isn't much about HQ9++ that isn't already discussed in the HQ9+ page.

In my opinion that would make the Discworld and brainfuck articles reasonalbe, not the Ook! article? —Ruud 13:38, 1 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Revision of In-n-Out Secret Menu Page

I copied this from my user talk.

Out of curiosity, where did the In-n-out management specifically cite quality control, packaging, and presentation as their reasons for discontinuing large burgers? If there's an official press release somewhere, then I agree that the article should refer to only those reasons, but if someone somewhere heard these reasons from some In-n-out employee, my having heard that the 100x100 is to blame is equally valid.

I have been reading and it looks like that indeed was also a valid reason. (That the site of the 100x100 was a motivation for banning such larege burgers.) I couls also imagine lawsuits as an issue. Feel free to go back and put that up if you wish, it is relevant.

The other issues I cited were the ones cited by the managment at the store where I work. Bridarshy 01:11, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
