The result of the debate was Userfy. The consensus was pretty clear here so I boldly did it myself. Non-admin closure. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • ^{(Broken clamshells • Otter chirps • HELP)} 19:14, 25 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, come on, this isn't even funny. Do we really need this page? Seems pretty useless, not even valid syntax! _David^WS _(contribs) 00:08, 21 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Userfy I got some lulz, I don't see a need for it to be in the project space though. Icewedge (talk) 01:21, 21 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Userfy - cute, but meh. //roux   02:46, 21 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Userfy Humor is nothing that everyone understands the same way but in this case I just do not see a reason why this should be in project space. SoWhy 08:46, 21 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep yeah, it's silly... but I'm okay with it. Why else would we have a "humor" header for such things?--Paul McDonald (talk) 09:39, 21 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete as someone who can program in several of those languages, and who normally might be amused by this sort of thing, I don't find this page witty or funny at all. It isn't valid code and doesn't even allude to valid code! JRawle (Talk) 10:30, 21 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete or userfy - As a programmer, however, I must agree with JRawle. — neuro^(talk) 10:39, 21 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Userfy (on authors request) or redirect to Wikipedia:Do NOT bite the developers, which is the page that it is likely to be confused with, and of which it is a very poor imitation. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 10:59, 21 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Userfy per above. Not followed by many at all, belongs in userspace if at all. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • ^{(Broken clamshells • Otter chirps • HELP)} 15:15, 21 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Userfy Not really a major violation of policy, just a humour page. But no need to keep this in the project-space, it's not providing anything useful to the editors about Wikipedia. Chamal ^talk 11:12, 22 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Userfy Violates not much of anything, but not very useful in Wikipedia space. And whether it would compile or not is not very important, is it? Collect (talk) 17:50, 24 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
