Shakesbeare
Your article at Shakesbeare, along with those at at Chet Shakesbeare and "chet shakesbeare", has been nominated for deletion as a hoax / non-notable web phenomenon (see WP:WEB for general guidelines there). &mdash; Lomn | Talk / RfC 00:51, 25 September 2005 (UTC)

I believe the articles on Chet Shakesbeare are not encyclopedic, because it's related to a non-notable website; there are billions of web sites on the internet, but only some of them are notable enough for an encyclopedia article. The usefulness is questionable, and wikipedia is not a link repository, or a web directory.. links to humor sites is not a particularly encyclopedic quality which could merit keeping an article.. --Mysidia (talk) 21:44, 25 September 2005 (UTC)

Re: Why a hater?
The above sums it up quite nicely. A consensus to delete is very quickly emerging so I'm taking the initiative to remove references from other articles that you've inserted. &mdash; Lomn | Talk / RfC 23:17, 25 September 2005 (UTC)

Please stop re-inserting your material in William Shakespeare
Please desist from reinserting the shakesbeare text and link in William Shakespeare. There are 16 million Shakespeare sites out there, and only a tiny selection of the best and most relevant ones should go in that external links section, otherwise it becomes useless.

Ditto for Parody
As per the above. If the Shakesbeare content survives AfD (the process ends in about 3 days), then I'll withdraw my objections to its insertion elsewhere. Until then, I request that you respect the emerging consensus. &mdash; Lomn | Talk / RfC 04:48, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
