Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Apple timer

Apple timer was proposed for deletion. This page is an archive of the discussion about the proposed deletion. This page is no longer live. Further comments should be made on the article's talk page rather than here so that this page is preserved as an historic record. The result of the debate was DELETE

Similar to Clockwork orange (see history before it was a redirect, not Clockwork Orange), this article is nonsense. Ironically, the earlier versions were less nonsensical. --ssd 19:47, 25 Jul 2004 (UTC) This page is now preserved as an archive of the debate and, like other '/delete' pages is no longer 'live'. Subsequent comments on the issue, the deletion or on the decision-making process should be placed on the relevant 'live' pages. Please do not edit this page.
 * Eequor is behaving rather strangely. Delete strange article that wasn't much of an article before it was strange. -- Cyrius|&#9998; 23:24, 25 Jul 2004 (UTC)
 * I almost wonder if Eequor added strageness just to get this worthless article noticed and deleted. --ssd 04:41, 26 Jul 2004 (UTC)
 * I'm hearing the music from The Twilight Zone. Odd... can't even revert as earlier versions aren't worthy of keeping, either.  Delete.  SWAdair | Talk  01:52, 26 Jul 2004 (UTC)
 * Heh. I said previous versions were less nonsense. I didn't say they were more worthy of keeping.  Otherwise, I might have considered reverting. --ssd 04:41, 26 Jul 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete: And this, friends, is why they call it "dope."  Geogre 03:51, 26 Jul 2004 (UTC)
 * Note: If this is deleted, Category:Pomology should also be deleted, since this is the only article in it. Actually, Category:Pomology should probably be deleted anyway.  Isomorphic 05:42, 26 Jul 2004 (UTC)
 * comment: my knee-jerk reaction was to assume "Pomology" was part of the "joke" (ology of pommes), but it appears to be a legitimate branche of academe, viz. e.g. UC Davis, Department of Pomology, "The Science of Fruit and Nut Production and Distribution" Ianb 05:51, 26 Jul 2004 (UTC)
 * Pomology will be deleted unless someone fills it up before Apple timer is deleted. --ssd 00:52, 29 Jul 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete. I didn't realize quite how strange the world is until I found Wikipedia. Ianb 05:51, 26 Jul 2004 (UTC)
 * "Do you like apples? Well I've got a delete. How 'bout them apples?" - UtherSRG 01:00, 29 Jul 2004 (UTC)
 * We already have "Apple Timer" on BJAODN: An apple Timer is a bright red mechanism that goes tick.  You turn the top half of the mechanism and it turns starts the mechanism going.  At the end of a period of time it dings.  No room for two nonsense articles on the same subject. - Lucky 6.9 22:18, 29 Jul 2004 (UTC)
 * If you look far back enough in history, you'll find the above still there. It has just evolved  beyond that BJAODN into total weirdness. Either the orignal was not deleted, or was undeleted and added to. --ssd 03:24, 30 Jul 2004 (UTC)
