Naked and Petrified
Not notable. Just some guy who used to be a troll. Verges on fancruft. --Improv 07:09, 27 Sep 2004 (UTC)
 * I heard about this guy on a message board, but he's not particularly notable. Delete. --Slowking Man 07:38, Sep 27, 2004 (UTC)
 * Not often that a three year-old article gets nominated. Weak keep . Cool Hand Luke  08:55, 27 Sep 2004 (UTC) Redirect to Slashdot trolling phenomenon.  Cool Hand Luke  09:37, 30 Sep 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete. This is an encycopedia not a trollpedia. Norm 11:01, 27 Sep 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete. Wikipedia is not Slashdot's inhouse pet record for their in-jokes and trolls. Average Earthman 13:13, 27 Sep 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete. Not very notable in the big scheme of things. Thue | talk 16:51, 27 Sep 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete. Why do people think anything slashdot is somehow notable? -R. fiend 17:38, 27 Sep 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep. Don't see how this can be worse or less relevant than Gay Nigger Association of America. Gamaliel [[Image:Watchmensmiley20.gif]] 18:35, 27 Sep 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete. If that's the best that can be said for it, enough said! Probable vanity, by a self-confessed troll. Andrewa 19:54, 27 Sep 2004 (UTC)
 * Well, it is precedent that Slashdot trolls are notable enough to deserve at least one article. It's lame, but it's notable/famous enough to make the cut, and should be preserved, even if it's just a redirect to Slashdot.Gamaliel [[Image:Watchmensmiley20.gif]] 06:38, 28 Sep 2004 (UTC)
 * Not sure this "one bad article deserves another" mentality really works. Having this article is like having an article on each of the 40+ members of the GNAA. At least as a group they might be somewhat notable. -R. fiend 17:28, 28 Sep 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete. Possibly autobiographical.Raazer 20:20, 27 Sep 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep. Intrigue 21:26, 27 Sep 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete, agree with R. fiend, who cares about Slashdot? -Vina 21:56, 27 Sep 2004 (UTC)
 * keep was usefull to me. This kind of cultural bit is what make wikipedia superior to paper encyclopedias.
 * Comment: That vote from IP 64.230.175.176, who has no other edits. Probably a valid comment from a reader IMO, but no change of vote. Andrewa 01:53, 28 Sep 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep - its notable enough. Mark Richards 06:24, 28 Sep 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete: trollvertisement. Wile E. Heresiarch 17:39, 28 Sep 2004 (UTC)
 * Weak keep. Can you imagine a beowulf cluster of that?. *ahem* Kim Bruning 20:25, 28 Sep 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep. Even being an RHPS fan, I never made that connection. Hope I added this vote correctly.
 * Delete. Tregoweth 21:33, Sep 28, 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep. Rhobite 00:20, Sep 29, 2004 (UTC)
 * Weak keep, because wikipedia is not paper and this guy has a small amount of notability. Redirect to Slashdot trolling phenomenon as this article will probably never be expanded. &mdash; siro  &chi;  o  00:52, Sep 29, 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep this is interesting. The Recycling Troll 03:13, 29 Sep 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete Wolfman 15:35, 29 Sep 2004 (UTC)

 * Delete. Mikkalai 04:51, 30 Sep 2004 (UTC)
 * Merge and Redirect to Slashdot trolling phenomena. Doesn't deserve a separate article. Mackensen 05:09, 30 Sep 2004 (UTC)
 * Does not deserve an article for itself. Delete. -- Mike Rosoft 10:56, 30 Sep 2004 (UTC)
