Do not create hoaxes
This is simple vandalism and doesn't require a content guideline. Nobody who would make a hoax would be bothered to read a page like this, let alone listen to it if they did. WP:BEANS. Ryan Delaney talk 19:17, 19 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep. Especially when I was a noob, I found the section on dealing with hoaxes to be very valuable.-- Fabrictramp |  talk to me  19:21, 19 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep. Per Fabrictramp . // roux    19:29, 19 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep. For the same reasons given above. Vicenarian (talk) 19:45, 19 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Snowball keep per above, doesn't seem to be WP:BEANS at all. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Many otters • One bat • One hammer) 03:10, 20 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep, don't be silly. Stifle (talk) 10:22, 20 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep, especially the part about the difference between actual hoaxes and articles about hoaxes is very helpful to newbies (and sometimes to old hands) - Mgm|(talk) 10:29, 20 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep. Even if this were not a guideline, it still ought to be kept, simply because the information within it is... well, informative. WP:BEANS is inapplicable; vandals are going to find some way to disrupt the Wiki even if they're not told how.--WaltCip (talk) 11:57, 20 May 2009 (UTC)
