A tag has been placed on Metafloyd, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the page appears to have no meaningful content or history, and the text is unsalvageably incoherent.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion. To do this, add  on the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag) and leave a note on the page's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself.

If the page you created was a test, please use the sandbox for any other experiments you would like to do. Feel free to leave a message on my talk page if you have any questions about this. RHaworth (Talk | contribs) 20:00, 18 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Hello Rob. I perfectly understand why you would propose this wiki for speedy deletion. I would be extremely greatful if you would take me seriously for a minute, and not think of this as plain nonsense. It did start out as so (not the wiki!), but it is becoming VERY serious. If after you still feel it unfit for wiki, well... all is fair in love and war, as we understand it seems too "out there" - The term metafloyd was a concept created by a couple of friends on a crazy night of crazy talk and lots of crazyness all round. To cut the story really really short, this term is spreading like a virus in proportions that is simply ununderstandable, yet real. More than just the trendy jargon of the season! It is quite scary even. So as to not pollute this section, I will happily fill you in over skype, msn, email, whatever! But it would be very important to have this wiki. We, the group that created it, have absolutely no economic interest, but we do solidly want to create this movement. This movement is becoming a flagship of social change, regarding the supercharged society we live in, its problems, and MANY etc - I´m trying to be concise but its quite hard to explain, and I dont want to come in as having the post-60´s-psychadelic-revolution-blues, but dare I say, it frighteningly similar! As with all, its difusing and loosing it´s character. We spent the whole day formatting it so once read it would give a clear picture. We didnt know it would be so speedly deleted, we were having more fun than actually getting in what is really important. Within each hour we started editing for coherence, droping the futilities. But we didnt finish! The language used was to demonstrate some sort of intelligence and effort behind it, so as not to be stamped as, well, plain nonsense from weird freakzoids. To attract as many angsted people as possible, from conspiracy theoretics to quantum physicians, to yougsters who just found, or wants to find out, the world is not what it seems at first. It is to preserve the guidelines of the filosofy that made us do this wiki, but yes, I never thought it would be so fun to wiki! seriously, so in the light of comic relief, we added some pun. Also to attract and not be boring, for speaking of what is metafloy in a really serious way does make peole steer away, because they simply compare it to a mild form os schizofrenia. What is said about "La Torre" for instace, is ABSOLUTELY true. One I have overheard a couple strangers in a bar trying to find where I live to ask to participate in the gatherings. We have both colleague professors and trance freaks debating, open heartedly! I urge you to not discard this without at least letting us try to figure out how to stay within Wiki's policies. I just registered this morning and everything here is so new I am a bit in over my head really. Spent 1 hour just trying to figure out how to contact you. Please advise us. Thank you for your time, Yidakee (talk) 21:57, 18 April 2008 (UTC)

An hour trying to contact me! Did you see "RHaworth (Talk | contribs)" above? Did you realise that Talk was a link? Wikipedia is simply not a place for new ideas or promoting new groups. Publish on one of your own websites. When the idea becomes notable and has acheived independent critical notice, then someone will write it up here for you. -- RHaworth (Talk | contribs) 02:37, 19 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Hello Again. I spent an hour because it is my very first day here and I had no idea about the system. For instance, as I clicked on talk I got redirected to your profile talk page, but this wiki does not show up there. Then I understood I had to edit THIS entry. Sorry, not that clear at first. I noticed you emailed me the removed wiki, does this mean I get a chance to re-edit it and post? Also, what would be your citeria to access "achieved independant critical notice"? We have an article coming out in a tri-monthly magazine, would a scan of the document do? I am not trying to work around you, just to comply to standards, as we really would like to maintain it "real" and not have people undermine our efforts, the true filosofy, gain for personal reasons, or fade out due to inconsistancy. This is also why we, the core group, would like to be responsible for the structural edifices of the wiki. I am sorry we got carried away, my friend and I spent the whole day just brainstorming and editing and ended up having a laugh together. We did not mean to mock wiki's guidelines in any way. Final question, if we are allowed to re-post, is it not possible to write up a description which is both cientifically backed up by independant wiki's and articles, and be writen in a light-hearted semi-provocative way (but never ofensive)? As with any social movement, the lack of some sort of well intended provocation or truthful cheekyness is a "must" to shake up opinions and stir up discussion. Thank you Rob, sorry for the long read, just dont want to waste anyone´s time, but defend the relevance of our views. Cheers! Yidakee (talk) 20:00, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

Who is this Rob guy? RHaworth is also a link and if you follow it, you will see that I am Roger. Of course you get a chance to "chance to re-edit it and post" but not on Wikipedia ! You can try to submit a scan but a) a link to online mention would be better and b) the "tri-monthly magazine" must itself be notable, preferably already having an article here. I suspect you are just undergraduate time-wasters but I will play along with your game a little further. -- RHaworth (Talk | contribs) 07:58, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
