London Psychogeographical Association
Delete I considered ((db-group)) but decided against in light of the long history. What is this about? A fictional association? This would be downright funny if it wasn't so sad. CrazyRussian talk/contribs/email 05:14, 29 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete This seems to be a fairly common term on Google, but I cannot decipher its true identity. It seems to be a widespread inside joke, with the humor being the plausibility of the name and ever-elusive true identity of the fictional association to outsiders.  I could be completely wrong, but my web travels lead me to believe this.  Perhaps if the term reaches a certain degree of prevalence, a true article could be created, but for now, kiss it goodbye.

 * Delete - I can see references reported from Goal, British sports magazine, issue of August 1996, as an exhibitor at anarchist bookfair, Conway Hall, 1995 .They're referred to as non-existent but highly influential . Very line ball but the clincher is that they are claimed not to exist. - Peripitus 06:04, 29 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Non-existent does not imply non-notable; see Unicorn and Perfection. --Lambiam Talk 13:45, 29 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per above. Deosn't seem to be notable. DarthVad e r 13:13, 29 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete, nn organisation. --Ter e nce Ong 15:40, 29 May 2006 (UTC)
 * No idea. The french version of the article seems to say it was a real organization that became part of Situationist International, for your information. I don't know if that's right and this is a farce, or they're both wrong. The SI article here claims the same thing, though. Grand  master  ka  01:32, 30 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Keep - lots on google and an entry is clearly needed - i agree the subject is very difficult to understand, but maybe we need to improve the entry rather than delete it! Paki.tv 16:32, 1 June 2006 (UTC)


 * Keep - lots of google entries and this is where Psychogeography originated. The dfact taht people find its "true identity to be problematic, shows an understanding i.e. see http://www.lutherblissett.net/archive/283_en.htmlhttp://www.lutherblissett.net/archive/283_en.html
 * Keep They are a real situationist organisation in London - I've come across them offline. Secretlondon 12:48, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep Article may need work but whatever the LPA is/isn't/is said to be, it's widely-enough referred to to merit an entry. Dogville 22:17, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete - per nom. Zaxem 01:11, 6 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment for this article to survive, it MUST clearly explain what the LPA is.  I would appreciate anyone familiar with it to do this. Adambiswanger1 01:57, 6 June 2006 (UTC)
 * OK, I tried -- please see redrafted article (rush morning job), which tries to explain why it's a difficult one to write. Dogville 07:23, 6 June 2006 (UTC)
