ANI sucks the life out of you


This page tends to scare editors, especially new ones, away from using WP:AN/I for rightful purposes. It also defames WP:AN/I as a hellish place, and anyone who've been to AN/I would find it very offensive. Overall, it is an unnecessary provocation to editors, which is indeed a WP:BADIDEA.

 * Comment - You've labelled this as the 2nd nomination, but where was the first? --David Biddulph (talk) 16:18, 31 July 2014 (UTC)
 * It's been renamed.Forbidden User (talk) 16:19, 31 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Renamed from what to what? Please provide links.  If the deletion has been discussed previously, readers need to see that discussion. --David Biddulph (talk) 16:22, 31 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Ah, yes, I now see that the previous discussion was at WP:Miscellany for deletion/Wikipedia:AN/ISUCKSTHELIFEOUTOFYOU, and resulted in AN/ISUCKSTHELIFEOUTOFYOU being renamed to ANI sucks the life out of you. --David Biddulph (talk) 16:37, 31 July 2014 (UTC)


 * You could try adding a humor tag to the top, and removing references to it from serious articles. JamesJNHu (talk) 16:39, 31 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Considered this option, but it is too amusing for me to laugh, even when I have never been on AN/I.Forbidden User (talk) 16:52, 31 July 2014 (UTC)


 * delete or at least userfy and remove links from any project/help pages. I nominated it last time and still think it fails as both a piece of humour and as useful advice. At worst it will unnecessary keep editors away from ANI, where they have every right to be, and it's found too easily via search as well as via links.-- JohnBlackburne wordsdeeds 19:59, 31 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete - This is a negative and not-so-helpful essay. It's also factually wrong. ANI serves a very valuable and necessary purpose in the operation of the project in spite of the frequent drama.- MrX 15:54, 1 August 2014 (UTC)
