Wikipedia:Fart


What is this page for exactly? The edit came in Huggle. I speedied but reverted when I saw the edit history by administrators. Marvellous Spider -Man 12:37, 23 August 2016 (UTC)
 * After reading the last good version, I can say that this nomination could be withdrawn. Due to the IP edits and the page name, it didn't look encyclopedic at that time. Thank you. -- Marvellous Spider -Man 12:48, 23 August 2016 (UTC)


 * Delete. There are too many weak attempts at so-called humorous essays attempting educational insight into the concept of Notability, this one is particularly weak, but worst, it associates negatively with a living person, and has done since the first version.  Better non-BLP infringing WP:BIO focused essays exist, (eg I wouldn't know him from a hole in the ground), and far better treatments of the subject exist (eg User:Greg L/Sewer cover in front of Greg L’s house).  --SmokeyJoe (talk) 23:45, 23 August 2016 (UTC)
 * As the original author, I of course don't think this should be deleted. The purpose of this, is not specifically directed at individual articles, rather, trivial content within articles about notable people. One does not need to include every trivial tidbit of every famous person's life in their article (which is the premise, not every fart is notable). The specific Bill Clinton example (for reference) was actually something that someone intended to include in an article. Did it happen, yes, is it relevant to their encyclopedic biography, no. --kelapstick(bainuu) 05:04, 24 August 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep - This little humorous essay combines both notability and WHATNOT to give a clearer explanation for those who can't be asked to read everything. Dat GuyTalkContribs 14:43, 27 August 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep—humor is useful in these cases.  Montanabw (talk) 01:45, 30 August 2016 (UTC)
