Hystud
Non-notable constructed language/constructed culture that is being posted here by someone very close to its creator. Delete. Andy Saunders 17:34, 30 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Strong delete more of a fake micronation-type-thing than just a conlang. 69 Google hits, and most of those are irrelevant mismatches with hýstuð, apparently a real word in Iceland which shows us under a search for Hystud. Andrew Lenahan -  St ar bli nd  17:49, 30 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete - presented as a hoax. Thue | talk 17:51, 30 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep especially if it can be linked to a discussion of constructed languages and cultures. Five hundred words is a fairly respectable size for a beginning language (especially one constructed simply according to linguistic rules), and the constructed history and culture seem to be consistent, if sketchy. -- MatthewDBA 18:23, 30 January 2006 (UTC)
 * keepNot only close to the creator, but the creator himself. Non-notable? Since when did wikipedia become an exclusive club? I apologize for the assumption of hoaxery, but in my defense I am an inexperienced wikipedian. As to the google hits: do not say "most of those are irrevelant mismatches" when this is in fact false. Of the first page, 9 of the first 10 are relevant to some aspect of Hystud's online existence. Akerensky99 21:18, 30 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Wikipedia has always been an exclusive club. The sign on the door clearly states: Only Facts Welcome. The rest of you can bugger off. So make like a bee, and buzz off. --Agamemnon2 09:50, 31 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Ahem! Please address the article itself and refresh your memory of Please do not bite the newcomers. Uncle G 13:37, 31 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. Until this constructed language receives some recognition from the outside world, I think it violates No original research.  --Thunk 22:23, 30 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete nn, the 'overview' section is nonsense -- Astrokey44 |talk 00:05, 31 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per above. Stifle 00:39, 1 February 2006 (UTC)
 * I'm voting delete because even though Langmaker and Janko Gorenc's list have it, it has fewer than 100 Google hits. Plus the "roughly 500 words of vocabulary offline" presents problems with verifiability. Wiwaxia 08:43, 2 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. Agree with Wiwaxia. &mdash;IJzeren Jan In mij legge alle fogultjes een ij  13:16, 2 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment. I vaguely recall seeing an article about Hystudian a few days ago. But when I checked back, it was a redirect without a page history. Does that mean that it was speedily deleted? If so, I have to object against that. Notable or not, verifiable or not, but that's no way to go about these things. Although I might have voted for deletion in that case too, I still found it interesting. &mdash;IJzeren Jan In mij legge alle fogultjes een ij  13:16, 2 February 2006 (UTC)
