The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the miscellany page below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the page's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result of the debate was delete all. A completely artificial list, with the "articles" created by the same user. Does not promote improvement of the encyclopedia in any way (and where's the humour?). Thanks/wangi 12:27, 23 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:List of Humourous Articles

This appears to be a collection of joke articles, some of which are newly-created by the creator of the page. However, it's redundant to the ever-controversial BJAODN, and it's not very funny. I'm bringing this here rather than redirecting it because it's completely useless, and redirecting would not make sense (as BJAODN is not a collection of humorous articles). The MFD includes all the subpages. Coredesat 17:29, 19 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete the subpages, we do not create joke articles in the namespace- joke articles belong on Uncyclopedia. The only thing the main page could redirect to would be this page, which serves a slightly more nobel purpose of listing articles that look like joke pages, but aren't. Otherwise, delete that too.

  • Userfy to User:GreaterWikiholic. He's entitled to have some fun, but the larger relevance of these pages to Wikipedia namespace is nil. YechielMan 18:50, 19 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Userify or Keep. The subarticles are subpages, and so in Wikipedia space. Septentrionalis PMAnderson 21:52, 19 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Userfy or delete. Belongs in Uncyclopedia or user subpage. bibliomaniac15 BUY NOW! 01:09, 20 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete, arbitrary list. Suggest using CAT:HUM instead. >Radiant< 09:43, 20 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Keep The article is part of the Department of Fun, and the articles are subpages and therefore not harming the articlespace. If you really won't budge, then Move to Uncyclopedia. Not an anon anymore!!!! Yeah!!!! 15:40, 20 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
