Ancient Astronaut Creation Theory

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Everything here that is not a violation of WP:NOR or WP:FRINGE can easily be included at ancient astronauts. jps (talk) 13:02, 23 February 2014 (UTC) Thanks for the review of the page I created. Feel free to delete it. It was a class project.Newsmill (talk) 01:44, 24 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete - possibly merge a few select items, but most seem covered in ancient astronauts or sub-articles from there.-- &#9790;Loriendrew&#9789;  &#9743;(talk)  14:39, 23 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete; seems to put undue weight on the ideas from one episode of some silly infotainment episode on the History channel. (With rose-tinted glasses, I fondly remember when the History channel mostly covered actual history). bobrayner (talk) 14:42, 23 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete An example of what happens when pop culture takes over where education leaves off. - LuckyLouie (talk) 14:57, 23 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete Lot's of original research and undue weight to fringe sources. It would be a stretch to find reliable references for the topic. Goblin Face (talk) 15:14, 23 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Merge to Ancient astronauts. Some of the material is amusing and worth adding to the other article. Creating a redirect will minimize the risk of the article being recreated again later.  Montanabw (talk) 21:02, 23 February 2014 (UTC)
 * So, you are saying you knowingly and purposely created an inappropriate article?-- &#9790;Loriendrew&#9789;  &#9743;(talk)  03:14, 24 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Way to WP:BITE a newcomer, Loreindrew. The editor is saying they can live with our decision and you snark at him? It looks like a good faith attempt, however many problems it may have.  Montanabw (talk) 04:26, 24 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Montanabw, Newsmill, you are welcome here, and your initial efforts are a lot better than mine were when I first started. Please stick around and create more content. Could you do me a favor and tell your instructor to read Student assignments? He/she can reach me by email at this link if she/he has any questions. Again, welcome. --Guy Macon (talk) 20:48, 24 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Um, Guy, I'm not the person who wrote this article, that was Newsmill, and I'm not a newcomer; I've been here since 2006. I just commented above on the AfD and suggested a merge of the usable info.  I was trouting Loreindrew for snarking at a newbie.  Newsmill said he did it as a class project, so it's HIS teacher who needs your comment, not me (I happen to agree with you on that topic, though. This is the second time I've come across "class projects" by instructors who don't know how to edit wikipedia)  Montanabw (talk) 02:43, 25 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Oops! Posted the wrong name. Sorry about that. (Note to self: next time, smoke crack after editing Wikipedia...) --Guy Macon (talk) 08:40, 25 February 2014 (UTC)

 * Delete and move any properly sourced information to Ancient astronauts. Simonm223 (talk) 18:12, 24 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Redirect as suggested to ancient astronauts; see also WP:CHEAP. Bearian (talk) 21:09, 4 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Redirect as per above to Ancient astronauts, well sourced material can be added to that. - - MrBill3 (talk) 14:24, 6 March 2014 (UTC)
