Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents
I believe we all hate this page and wish we did not need it. Except for the vandals and dramamongers, of course, but we should deny their recognition or even their existence. We should stop engaging in Wikidrama and start writing GAs. J.L.W.S. The Special One (talk) 15:55, 1 April 2010 (UTC)


 * Question - Is this a serious nomination, or something that has to do with the day this nomination was made? (If the latter, you at least get a golf clap.) --  At am a  頭 16:09, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment - Looking over the contents of the page further, I think it might be a BLP violation. --  At am a  頭 16:25, 1 April 2010 (UTC)


 * Delete. No evidence of notability. Alzarian16 (talk) 16:13, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Move to User talk:Jimbo. SGGH ping! 16:23, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
 * LOL! --Supreme Deliciousness (talk) 16:44, 1 April 2010 (UTC)


 * Delete. Inappropriate use of project page and general waste of space. We have quite enough drama without it! HJ Mitchell  |  April Fool!   16:38, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Speedy keep—it's past noon and this isn't particularly funny. ╟─ Treasury Tag ►  sheriff  ─╢ 17:01, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment - in the U.S. it is celebrated all day.  Eagles   24/7  (C)  17:14, 1 April 2010 (UTC)


 * Delete per Waste of Time. Count Iblis (talk) 17:02, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete way to much drama to make this page worthwhile. Kevin Rutherford (talk) 17:04, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep. im not sure which this page has been nominated. It has proven very useful in the past for notifying admin of incidents. I wonder if the nomination to delete this page is because said users have had a bad experience with it? Lil-unique1 (talk) 17:06, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
 * I believe that jokes should be used to raise serious points. Now, go and write a GA. GAs do not write themselves. --J.L.W.S. The Special One (talk) 17:09, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Trust me, we admins don't want to hear about your petty disputes. People complaining about harassment just cut into all the time I could be spending fixing the real problems on Wikipedia, like deciding whether or not hummus should be considered Arab or Israeli. --  At am a  頭 17:14, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
 * That AN/I may be a BLP violation does not seem like a joke now. --J.L.W.S. The Special One (talk) 17:16, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Speedy keep. Someone does this every year; it wasn't funny the first time and it's certainly worn thin now. Want to go AFD Wikipedia while you're at it? That's the other traditional one. – iride  scent  17:23, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Ah, I see three people have had that hilarious idea so far today as well. – iride  scent  17:44, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep. Its hilarious to read. Parrot of Doom 17:28, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep per Rutherford, Delete per Parrot of Doom. Then exile to the planet Foodcourtia. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Many otters • One bat • One hammer) 18:15, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete Can be easily combined with WP:AN. No need for 2 boards. Suomi Finland 2009 (talk) 18:17, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Hilarious, literally hilarious. Keep. --John (talk) 18:31, 1 April 2010 (UTC)

 * Speedy delete on wheels! Leftis (atkl) 19:04, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Transwiki to ED.  caknuck °  needs to be running more often  19:35, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Vandalism_reports. Let the stewards enjoy all the wikidrama so that we can focus on building GAs. :P -- SoCalSuperEagle ( talk ) 19:40, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Rename to Banhammer. Or perhaps Delete it altogether. No AIAV = no vandalism reports, and no vandalism reports = no vandalism right? Excirial ( Contact me, Contribs ) 19:46, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete and ban everyone who ever edited that page, including that no-good User:Harej who shouted profanities on that page. harej  20:00, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment It's rather sad that everybody is treating this as an obvious April Fool's prank since ANI is in need of some help.  Them From  Space  20:24, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Sausages! Tony Fox (arf!) 20:39, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete. Xavexgoem (talk) 20:39, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:ATTACK.--Wehwalt (talk) 21:26, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Merge with Village pump (proposals)/Persistent proposals. -- llywrch (talk) 21:38, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:DENY, Where else are you gonna find trolls?-- SKATER  Speak. 21:39, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep We must have something to offer to practitioners of schadenfreude. What's better than this? Also, it would take a while to develop a suitable replacement. RadManCF &#x2622; open frequency 22:04, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Strong keep The very idea of deleting a page this important is completely absurd. Immunize (talk) 22:13, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Tic Tac Toe - The only winning move is not to play. Burpelson AFB (talk) 22:16, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep Is this an April fool's joke? -OberRanks (talk) 22:25, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Yes. See WP:APRILFOOLS -- sk8er5000 yeah? 22:26, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
 * (ec) The Magic 8 Ball says "You may rely on it", so Delete (WP:DENY, WP:POINT). Gives vandals reconigition, and halts Wikipedia to raise points constantly. -- sk8er5000 yeah? 22:26, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete This page is the biggest time waster at wikipedia. It doesn't cite any reliable sources. It's heavily POV. And its unsourced comments about living people are in clear violation of wikipedia policy. Grundle2600 (talk) 22:31, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Rename to Drama and add humour. - Mailer Diablo 22:34, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete along with This page, and this page.-- Gordonrox24  &#124; Talk 22:36, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Rename to a random series of letters, numbers, and punctuation marks. Then delete the redirect page. That should go a long ways towards keeping the drama to a minimum. ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots→ 22:47, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Speedy nonadministrative courtesy blank at 11:59:59PM Samoan standard time. Also, in the future charge a subscription fee, institute a scoring system, and sell beer and popcorn.  - Wikidemon (talk) 23:22, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
