Bad Jokes and Other Deleted Nonsense/Encyclopædia BJAODNonica
Let me put it this way. I've actually broken the rules for MfD listing here, because I haven't put an MfD alert tag on the article itself. I'm not able to: this is what happens... (10.0.5.3)
 * Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 83886080 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 10683867 bytes) in /usr/local/apache/common-local/php-1.5/includes/Parser.php on line 3862
 * I've added the mfd1 tag to the page, the page loads occasionally, but you can go direct to editing at The edit link — xaosflux  Talk  03:42, 21 May 2006 (UTC)

I'm told this is an amalgamation of all BJAODN, past, present (and future). If so, that would explain the page crashing due to article size. So why don't we just get rid of this unviewable (literally) article?


 * Delete, full list already exists at Bad Jokes and Other Deleted Nonsense. Nacon kantari  21:49, 20 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment: I'd be uncomfortable deleting this until a developer looks at the issue and comments: do we know it's a MediaWiki issue? On the other hand, it is just a mega-transclusion page (IIRC), so it hardly matters.  --  stillnotelf   is invisible  23:31, 20 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment: I was told that this had to do with the page being too big with all that transcluding, but I too would be very much obliged if we could get a dev on the record. TheProject 23:37, 20 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete. Even if there's a way to get it to work, what's the point?  Chick Bowen 04:34, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete, if it's too big to be opened, it's not useful. Transcluding all the BJAODN pages onto one big page may have made sense when there were only three or four of them, but it doesn't make sense any more. Angr (t • c) 10:10, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete after making sure that there's a page with wikilinks (not transclusions or substitutions) to the relevant subpages. Pegasus1138 Talk 03:18, 23 May 2006 (UTC)
