Speedy deletion of Badger Bite

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. Tckma (talk) 18:44, 25 July 2008 (UTC)

Welcome, and thank you for your attempt to lighten up Wikipedia. However, this is an encyclopedia and the articles are intended to be serious, so please don't make joke edits. Readers looking for serious articles will not find them amusing. If you'd like to experiment with editing, try the sandbox, where you can write (almost) whatever you want. --Tombstone (talk) 19:03, 25 July 2008 (UTC)
