Wikipedia:Segway Geeks

This nominaiton includes...

Wikipedia:Segway Geeks
Template:Segway Geeks
Category:Monitored By Segway Geeks
Template:User SG (added 00:32, 11 Jan 2007)

What is this? Aside from it being totally pointless and having no function towards building the encyclopedia, it was created by a now indefblocked user. Since this user is a sockpuppet, I question the importance of this page. Deskana (For Great Justice!) 20:38, 10 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Project does not cover a wide enough range of articles and is created by an indefblocked user. Yuser31415 20:50, 10 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Even if not made by indef blocked user, focus is far too specific. Dar-Ape 21:11, 10 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as ridiculous, and don't forget to AWB the templates as there's a fair few transclusions. Daniel.Bryant ^{[ T · C ]} 23:25, 10 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as bad joke. -Amarkov ^blah_edits 00:02, 11 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- But keep the user template; seriously, why would that be included here? -Amarkov ^blah_edits 00:35, 11 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  - No idea. My !vote didn't include that. Daniel.Bryant ^{[ T · C ]} 00:37, 11 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    - I realised that people might not agree, which was why I added the timestamp as to when I added the template to the nomination, so that the closing admin can determine what had a consensus to delete. My reason for proposing it's deletion is the same as the others; it was created by a banned user and serves no encyclopedic purpose. If you choose to oppose that templates deletion, then that's fair enough. --Deskana (request backup) 00:59, 11 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
      - While that may be true, historically, userboxes have never ever been deleted for not serving an encyclopedic purpose. Userfied, yes, but this isn't really the place for userfication. -Amarkov ^blah_edits 01:03, 11 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Ridiculous, wikipedia doesn't benefit from this in any way. Arjun 01:32, 11 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete & Template:User SG. The template was created as part of the project, so it should be deleted as well... otherwise, generalise it and remove the project related junk. ---J.S (T/C/WRE) 02:51, 11 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, focus is too narrow, don't see any reason to keep this project. Terence Ong 13:50, 11 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, This project doesn't really serve any purpose other than promoting a commercial good. "Projects" like this belongs on MySpace, not Wikipedia. Somnabot 14:21, 11 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, I have edited the Segway Geeks pages. However, I do not support it. It has failed to keep its goal of bringing Segway and geek related articles to featured status. Instead, its creator, Geekler (talk • contribs), admits that he is the creator of Tooj117, who (with his numerous socks) hasn't improved the article Geek but instead has vandalized it. So, my conclusion is to delete all Segway Geeks pages. SD31415 (SIGN HERE) 02:10, 12 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete all *insert corny White & Nerdy joke here.--Ac1983fan 21:13, 12 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete all even Wikipedia:Wikiproject Segway would be too limited in scope. James086^{Talk | Contribs} 06:32, 13 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete all per above reasonings. - Mailer Diablo 17:17, 13 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
