Re: your speculation "without even reading it": your assumption is incorrect. Please do not speculate on what other editors have read, that is somewhat rude. Being incivil does not make your point stronger, even less so when said speculation is simply wrong.

Re: "Is Wikipedia only about history that can be seen in written form": Wikipedia is about information that is verifiable using reliable sources. A web forum (or even two) do not constitute a reliable source.

Please keep expressing your opinion on the matter but please also be mindful of Wikipedia policies on verifiability and reliable sources so as not to spend too much time on articles that do not conform to policy and have no hope of doing so. I'm saying that in all friendliness, in the interest of saving your time as well as others'. Thanks! Weregerbil 21:35, 5 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Re: "How else would a speech-only ... colloquialism ever get included in wikipedia": if a figure of speech becomes widely used it can be included. Often by then its use has been noted in mainstream media too; I have seen newspapers discuss the use of smileys and LOL. For borderline cases we discuss the matter to gain consensus on the matter; that is what is happening in the AfD discussion.
Please let's continue this discussion on the AfD page rather than on our talk pages. Discussion on our talk pages will be seen only by us the two of us and so has very little effect on anything. Weregerbil 21:54, 5 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Bruce WIllis was a robot

[edit]

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Bruce WIllis was a robot, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Speedy deletion of Bruce WIllis was a robot

[edit]

A tag has been placed on Bruce WIllis was a robot, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion debate, such as at articles for deletion. Under the specified criteria, where an article has substantially identical content to that of an article deleted after debate, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. Pip (talk) 20:32, 22 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
