Talk:List of regular mini-sections in Private Eye

This article was nominated for deletion on 10 August 2023. The result of the discussion was no consensus.

Merging from Luvvies, Pseud's Corner and Dumb Britain[edit]

Colemanballs has enough supporting information to merit its own article, but these three articles are just single-paragraph explanations with a lot of (fairly arbitrarily chosen) examples - they're funny, but they don't add anything to the article. Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information, and I think these would all be better off merged with the list article here. What do other editors think? --McGeddon 13:47, 28 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I agree completely with all of that, if we put all the encyclopaedic info in manageable and navigable articles like this then we can eventually sort out a whole series of good articles about private eye (the Private Eye article itself is still massively overlong). Eventually I foresee some kind of cute little template or something. Jdcooper 15:56, 28 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with merging Luvvies and Dumb Britain, but I do think that there exists an awareness of Pseud's Corner outside of the hardcore Eye readership, which might make it noteworthy enough to deserve its own page. Whatever anyone does though, those lists of quotes have to go. They're just to long and pointless.Sceptic-all 15:07, 13 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hmm, I think I moved the information here originally because the article was a stub and didn't appear to be making any progress out of being a stub. However, I'm sure, like you say, that there is more information to be found that might make a proper article about it. We can wait and see if anyone takes that task up I suppose, nothing is set in stone. Jdcooper 06:11, 23 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
