Feted Inner Core
Unsourced and self-admittedly fringe conspiracy theory about the goings-on in an online game. Very broadly non-encyclopaedic, this. WP:NOT, WP:OR apply. Contested PROD.Sandstein 06:35, 19 March 2006 (UTC)

 * Do not delete. The article could use more sourcing, including to the articles by the originator of the term, the avatar Prokofy Neva. The hypothesis is not a conspiracy, and in fact is documented here by the author in argumentation concerning media coverage, outsourcing of contract to Wells Fargo, etc. An important element of the history of the Metaverse, and a household vernacular term for the immediate community, Linden Lab, which includes the term in messages of the day, and those analysing the virtual world.
 * Keep/Modify or Merge. Though it may have initially been cruft, its quickly taken on a life of its own in some of the more common vernacular within Second Life, and could be merged into that entry.  Alternatively, it could be properly expanded upon to include its possible application among any gaming group (I know of some non-computer games for example which could fit the bill; I'm sure that it could apply to other MMOs or other formats).  --TSK  02:15 EDT, 21 Mar '06
 * Merge under Second Life, subsection 7 (Issues and Criticisms). -- User:Sarah Little Princess 22 March 2006
