  • Delete. Nothing original here. Wikipedia is not a "list repository of loosely associated topics." - Fennec 00:00, 1 April 2004
    • Someone needs to put {{subst:vfd}} on that page. It's protected. Fennec 03:08, 32 Mar 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. It's just about some stupid web encyclopedia. DJ Clayworth 00:10, 32 Mar 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. It could obviously be replaced with something much better, like Exploding head syndrome. -- Friedo 00:32, 32 Mar 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. I agree completely. -- Hankwang 00:58, 32 Mar 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. It's self-referential, too. --Dogmaster3000 01:13, 32 Mar 2004 (UTC)
    • Dogmaster3000s can't vote. Only votes of Dogmasters 4000 and higher count. Maximus Rex 01:27, 32 Mar 2004 (UTC)
      • See! SEE!!? The cabal is trying to silence criticism! -- Cyrius | Talk 01:54, Mar 32, 2004 (UTC)
    • That's not even the real Dogmaster3000 [1]. Oh, and delete, of course. -- Dogmaster3000 05:37, 1 Apr 2004 (UTC)
      • (The preceding votes were by sockpuppets and Cyrian pretenders, and have been stricken from the record. +sj+)
  • Delete - Amerikkkan capitalist pig-dog propaganda -- Cyrius | Talk 01:17, Mar 32, 2004 (UTC)
    • Oho, so now who's trying to silence criticism? We need to include the viewpoint of every type of dog, from Dogmasters of low number to Amerikkkan capitalist pig-dogs. Bryan 02:41, 32 Mar 2004 (UTC)
      • Just like a member of the WiKKKipedia cabal, twisting people's words. -- Cyrius | Talk 03:21, Mar 32, 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete, unless if someone can NPOV it. Ashibaka ✎ 01:26, 32 Mar 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. Rewrite completely and rename. Evil deletionists, always killing puppies and such. Maximus Rex 01:29, 32 Mar 2004 (UTC)
    • I see the leaders of the cabal have come to shut us up themselves. What happened to free speech? -- Cyrius | Talk 02:22, Mar 32, 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete - it's a broken redirect. I keep ending up on Whitehouse.com. - Tεxτurε 01:34, 32 Mar 2004 (UTC)
  • This page has no unique content. Redirect to Wikipedia. -- Seth Ilys 01:40, 32 Mar 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete - not only is this just a content-free collection of seemingly random see-alsos, but there appears to be unending disagreement over what should be included. Major rewrites almost every day! Bryan 02:05, 32 Mar 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. This is hard core NPOV and the content is dubious. Also, someone needs to mark it with a VFD tag. Jacob1207 02:06, 32 Mar 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete, did someone forget to lock this page because it still has the "Edit this page" button on it?! MrArtificialHealth (this comment is a work in progress and may be altered at anytime to reflect the strange whims of the author)
  • Delete. BLATANT copyvio from [2]. Meelar 02:14, 32 Mar 2004 (UTC)

  • Merge with All pages by title and keep. Mkweise 04:08, 1 Apr 2004 (UTC)

    • I think you mean the old format of [3] Rmhermen 07:28, 1 Apr 2222 (UTC)
  • Why is this even listed here? It's obviously a case for speedy deletion. RickK | Talk 05:28, 1 Apr 2004 (UTC)
  • KEEEP IT! All of you should be banned for trolling! -- Cyan 05:32, 1 Apr 2004 (UTC)
    • Is the number of E's in "KEEEP" some sort of secret cabal code? I will breaak your cabal's secret code! -- Cyrius | Talk 13:31, Apr 1, 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete the Main Page! Weed out biased threats! Prevent democratic insecurity! Cut back Socialist enemies! Smoke out liberal agendas! Encourage traditional campaign contributions! Invest in conventional sanctity! Revive military freedom! Defend compassionate opportunity! Fast-track bipartisan involvement! Support corporate economics! Replace treasonous threats! Elevate family growth! - A. Polemicist 03:51, 8 Feb 2004 (UTC)
    • Thank you for recognizing the inherent inherent problems of WiKKKipedia. The only solution is to destroy the existing power structure and start anew. I expect your time machine will be of great use in this. -- Cyrius | Talk 13:33, Apr 1, 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep, encyclopedic. Rename to something more informative, like Welcome to the Wikipedia Website!. +sj+ 07:35, 2004 Apr 1 (UTC)
  • Welcome to the first day of April. ping 07:55, 1 Apr 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete, not verifiable - no google hits. fabiform | talk 09:50, 1 Apr 2004 (UTC)
  • Transwiki to wikisource and delete. -Lee (talk) 11:28, 1 Apr 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. He is my Prophet. He will save the world. Brisby 14:07, 1 Apr 2004 (UTC)
  • Blatently Wikicentric. If we're going to allow this kind of thing we should allow Pages that are not Main as well. MK 15:13, 1 Apr 2004 (UTC)
  • KEEP!!! THIS page SHOULD be DISSEMINATED throughout the INTERNET as SOON as POSSIBLE?!? EAT more MEAT!!! SEE the FNORDS!?! who are you? why do want to know? ~~‍~~‍~
  • Delete. Casts aspersions on the memory of the great scientist, public benefactor and first president of the Republic of Georgia Dr. Zviad K. Gamsakhurdia, as any fule kno. -- ChrisO 15:49, 1 Apr 2004 (UTC)
  • Uh, maybe you were all following the wrong link or someone has edited this page... THAT'S THE MAIN PAGE you're talking about deleting. DON'T DELETE. Fredrik 16:12, 1 Apr 2004 (UTC)
    • Another victim of the WiKKKipedia cabal's brainwashing. Sad -- Cyrius | Talk 17:22, Apr 1, 2004 (UTC)
      • Did I really fool you? Fredrik 18:46, 1 Apr 2004 (UTC)
  • This page is German attempt to disregard Treaty of Versailles. Creator is German nationalist vandal, hates Poland and Poles. Page should be deleted, author banned. --Zygmunt Leszczynski
  • This page exists to whitewash the sufferings of the Heimatvertriebene, and to make excuses for the ethnic cleansing of the Prussians from their ancestral homeland by the most evil tyrant and mass murderer in history. --Henryk von Bislernichov
  • A famous and well-known Georgian historian has published a well-known theory about the well-known fact that this page was created by Georgians! It should be kept but only if it reflects this well-known theory. Ioseb Jughashvili
  • Keep, but only if someone creates a List of website main pages for NPOV balance. Eloquent
  • Rename to Page - why is this page called "main"? That's POV. In wikipedia, all pages are equal, although some are destined for VfD. Tim Sparrow
  • Rename？Wikipedia Main page？or Wikipedia Home page? or welcome to wikipedia? or Hello! wikipedia? hehe...--Shizhao 17:05, 1 Apr 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. 1/ Judging by the amount of history [4], it's too prone to edit wars. 2/ It's elitist as only admins can edit the page. 3/ Google only shows 8,760,000 hits [5] and at least one of them was this one. 4/ Real encyclopedias don't have articles called "Main page". --Zigger 11:60, 32 March 4002 (UTC)
  • Delete. This page creates the false impression that Wikipedia is a reliable, accurate resource, when the truth is that it is a dangerous suicide cult designed to prey on the young and innocent by indoctrinating them into the white mans' corrupt Western imperio-capitalist order and feed the inflated egos of its so-called "contributors". Deleting it would fit right in to the Wikipedia junta-mentality of trying to cover up and hide anything that reflects badly on this ridiculous project. --Avian 17:18, 1 Apr 2004 (UTC)
Well, well, well...What have we here?...What have we here....! it's clear my fellow Wikipedians (of whom I am most prominant, having made 127,462 edits in the last 24 hours) are not showing the correct amount of quies custodiet ipsos custodes in regard to this fine occasion of furious POV-centric WikiLove. We must clearly strive to include a better showing of nemo me impune lacessit to what we in France describe as le pique-nique. Such insults cannot but pass judgement on the overall Weltanschauung of our blotted escutcheon. Perhaps with a better understanding of how buddyloving-cabals have dominated the development of "Wikidiscourse" by ex catherda pronouncements, we will achieve something approaching NPOV - sui generis...! ;o) :o) Happy editing! -- Corneaopener 11:00, 1 Apr 2004 (UTC)
  • A Frenchie bowing down to the facist cabalistic forces of the WiKKKipedia. How appropriate. -- Cyrius | Talk 18:20, Apr 1, 2004 (UTC)
  • Comment: Some good stuff here, that last trick got me in for a second. But can it all be archived so we don't repeat it all next year? Andrewa 21:37, 1 Apr 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. Main pages are non-notable.--BaronLarf 15:34, Apr 1, 2005 (UTC)
  • Whine about the end of April Fool's Day. I haven;t decided to delete, keep, refute, do a logit model, or something else entirely. — Rickyrab | Talk 01:22, 2 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete It's spam for Wikipedia! - ???
  • Keep I time traveled from the future, so maybe we shouldn't mess with the space time continuum? - Fun
