Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia, Zaukul! However, your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove spam from Wikipedia. If you were trying to insert a good link, please accept my creator's apologies, but note that the link you added, matching rule \burbandictionary\.com\/, is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. Please read Wikipedia's external links policy for more information. If the link was to an image, please read Wikipedia's image tutorial on how to use a more appropriate method to insert the image into an article.

Please do not violate Wikipedia policy by introducing inappropriate pages, such as International That's What She Said Day to Wikipedia. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. Kafziel Talk 16:21, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

This is your last warning. The next time you create an inappropriate page, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Kafziel Talk 16:35, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

What policy does this violate? I refer to No Pants Day or Blame Someone Else Day for other obscure fictional holidays with Wikipedia pages. The validity of the saying "That's what she said." itself can be shown by the naming of an episode of King of the Hill.

Pointing out other crappy articles is never a good argument for keeping your own crappy articles. It's a tired argument.
This article violates our most basic policy: Verifiability. This is a fake holiday, and therefore no reliable sources can be found to confirm its existence. Persistently recreating it after numerous warnings is only going to get you blocked. Kafziel Talk 16:57, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
Okay, you are right. Regarding this subject, would an article just on the phrase "That's what she said." be allowed? It has been used in verifiable sources, such as The Office (US) and King of the Hill, as I linked above. If you say it would be okay, I may create it. If you say it's not, I certainly won't. Thank you. Zaukul 17:21, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
There are very few articles permitted about slang terms. In fact, there used to be an article called "That's what she said" but it was deleted. Personally, I use this one all the time, but this just isn't the place for it. Here's the guideline about that. If you'd really like to get something started with it, you could always work on the article at Uncyclopedia. Hope that helps. Kafziel Talk 17:38, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
