 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Trivial list that really doesn't amount to anything. Most of it is original research. Theres a lot of TV shows, movies, and magazines that do parodies of people, they doesen't need to be encyclopedia articles about it. its an unimportant list, non-encyclopedic and fancruft.

 * Keep Trivial nomination that really doesn't amount to anything. I have added a citation to the article to demonstrate this. Colonel Warden (talk) 09:23, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep Seems like a vaild fork of the main Private Eye article. -- neon white user page talk 13:28, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep. Eye parodies are well known and frequently referenced in British media - added a few more references to support this. Multiple reliable sources can easily be found to support most of the other entries in the list. Gr1st (talk) 13:48, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep Lists of this kind may not turn up in an Encyclopedia, but many of the terms included here do surface in dictionaries of 'phrase and fable'; many WP articles are effectively an online version of these works. Philip Cross (talk) 19:22, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
