Yes, User:Radiant! The result of the mfd was Keep. I wonder how many editors, myself included, never heard about this debate in time to comment, or, indeed, have never even heard of the process Miscellany for deletion before now? Newbyguesses - Talk 11:26, 13 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Amazing what you can get away with when you call something a joke. (1 == 2)Until 14:21, 13 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Well, I ain't gonna be sending this to mfd, though I dont see much value in it. This kinda stuff is funny for about a minute, then just becomes embarrassing all around, like the most embarrassing essay ever. I am going to just ignore it, it's an essay from the "Twilight Zone"!

Typos

[edit]

At top center, "dekete". At the left edge near the bottom, "interetsing". Art LaPella (talk) 19:31, 21 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

More importantly, I see that the spelling-Nazi zombies are underrepresented. silly rabbit (talk) 19:46, 21 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I'm pretty sure those are direct quotes of statements that were misspelled that way in the field.--Father Goose (talk) 22:38, 21 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Popularity

[edit]

The popularity of zombies has skyrocketed in the past 10 years. Zombies are the subject of many video games, online games, and popular television or book series. The outbreak of zombies is referred to as Zompocalypse, which plays to people's curiosity of an apocolyptic world. 213.124.222.206 (talk) 10:22, 14 March 2014 (UTC)Melinda Baker[reply]

Alternate meaning

[edit]

The term "zombie" has been brought up repeatedly at Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard#Nip_Gamergate_in_the_bud in ways that do not seem to align with how this page describes zombies. I am wondering if this term is also regularly used to convey the idea of a user who edits actively, goes inactive for a period of time, and then returns to life in a sense, to resume editing? Kind of like thread-necromancy?

The page currently seems to talk more about an editor's attitude (herd-following, unthinking) rather than their activity patterns. Ranze (talk) 11:14, 24 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
