Captain Obvious
AfDs for this article:
- Captain Obvious (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View log)
From reading the old nomination, and the current article, there are some things to bring up:
- The Google hits for this term are irrelevant
- The sources given in the article are not reliable - Wookiepedia and Uncyclopedia are nureliable
- The embedded picture makes no sense, is misleading even
The subject of the article isn't notable, and has been transwikied to Wiktionary already (although, to be fair, lots of rubbish gets transwikied there anyway) Montchav 19:37, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
- This AfD nomination was incomplete. It is listed now. DumbBOT 11:44, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
- Delete. Not a widespread neologism. --Blanchardb 13:14, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
- Weak delete per above. JJL 14:44, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
- Delete. Slang (wiki not urban-dictionary) and not even particularly deep slang on an etymological basis. There's my word of the day. Epthorn 16:17, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
- Delete - already been transwikied, no use for it here. Otto4711 16:22, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
- Weak delete — Good for a laugh *cough*Dubya*cough* but not much more, unfortunately. — RJH (talk) 16:33, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
- Weak delete per nom. – Mike.lifeguard | @en.wb 03:49, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
- Delete The word can be explained briefly in Wikitionary and "in-depth" analysis was already provided by the other encyclopedia--Lenticel (talk) 09:01, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
- Delete - not even remotely encyclopedic --Orange Mike 17:45, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
- Keep It's a reasonably widespread meme, and a short page does no harm, although the page could use a cleanup. -lk 15:54, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
