 * Needs more words on fidget spinners in the article, either keep it up or merge it with the HI page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 46.208.49.53 (talk) 23:33, 1 August 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete as utterly NN - might be plausible to smerge into Hello Internet. And yes, salting seems a good idea. Grutness...wha?  01:42, 1 August 2017 (UTC)

 * Speedy delete. No redirect. Protect from recreation. Delete and protect the image too. Non-notable. No independent references. Pure fancruft. The original redirect was clearly made in good faith but it is unnecessary. The subsequent action turning it into an article seems to be deliberately vexatious. I find it deeply sad that Gray and Haran are out there working hard to make intelligent stuff to try to make the world less dumb and then some people come along and take their stuff and just use it as nothing more than yet another way to make the world dumber. This flag referendum thing was done as a way to help people learn and think about voting systems, and also about what makes a good flag, in an interesting and entertaining way. It was never meant to start an idiotic battle that spilled over into regularly vandalising Wikipedia for god knows how long. Sadly, some of the "Tims" have missed the point. They probably think that they are cleverer than the run of the mill Wikipedia vandals. I don't care if they are more intelligent. If they are then that just means that they should know better. Such behaviour is purely disruptive and it has to stop. If they don't care about Wikipedia then they should care that they risk making Gray and Haran, not to mention all the rest of the "Tims" who are not busily making a damn nuisance of themselves, look like a tribe of idiots, which, for the most part, they are not. Let them have their fun on Reddit, not here. --DanielRigal (talk) 20:20, 3 August 2017 (UTC)
