Norfolk County Council

Obvious hoax, no claim of notability. Joseph2302 (talk) 01:47, 2 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Speedy keep - obviously notable. I respectfully suggest that it is this nomination that is the hoax. Just Chilling (talk) 01:52, 2 April 2015 (UTC)
 * I don't find it respectful that you think it's a hoax. Joseph2302 (talk) 01:56, 2 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Then please explain why you think a well referenced article on a major local authority is a hoax? Just Chilling (talk) 02:06, 2 April 2015 (UTC)
 * "Norfolk" should be "The Northern Folk of the East Angles", abbreviating the true name is grossly insulting.
 * "In 1902, the council consisted solely of landowners"- not true, they were all farmers.
 * "The United Kingdom local elections, 2013 saw UKIP become the second largest party in Norfolk County Council and the Labour Party third"- that can't be true, because Norfolk isn't full of racists, the only people who would vote UKIP.
 * "First past the post"- they actually just throw pitchforks at each other to decide who gets elected.
 * As you can see, this is an obvious hoax page. Joseph2302 (talk) 02:13, 2 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Speedy keep - The article is clearly notable. Every other county council of England has their own article because local government is considered important. The nomination shouldn't be taken seriously - you need only read the nominator's so-called reasons for deletion above. Duffit5  talk 07:56, 2 April 2015 (UTC)
