The result of the discussion was  Keep. If it was an April Fool's joke that didn't get closed, then the time is long past. If it was a serious nomination, then WP:SNOW seems to apply. --RL0919 (talk) 00:25, 8 April 2011 (UTC)

Village stocks
Unfunny. Shows just how stupid Wikipedia can be. :| TelCo NaSp  Ve :|  07:59, 1 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Not sure if bad April fool or actually serious... Barts1a | Talk to me | Yell at me 08:37, 1 April 2011 (UTC)

I laughed. Nomination disproved. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 08:40, 1 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Assuming the nomination isn't an April Fool's joke, keep because a significant number of people find it funny. Hut 8.5 16:02, 2 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep. Provides valuable on the behaviour of the community of editors.  Has educational benefit.  --SmokeyJoe (talk) 21:51, 2 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Strong Keep - We need pages like this to lighten up the community. If we cannot laugh at ourselves; then who can we laugh at? Barts1a | Talk to me | Yell at me 01:22, 3 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. Not needed. -- Klein zach  23:48, 3 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep per nom. We need to be able to demonstrate how stupid Wikipedia can be. Also, this page probably has uses in aiding the collaborative and collegiate working that is essential for building a quality encyclopedia. --Demiurge1000 (talk) 00:03, 4 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep. I didn't know about this page before - it's entertaining and an excellent cautionary tale for curious new admins. Dcoetzee 00:12, 4 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep, amusing and serves as a cautionary tale. Gwinva (talk) 02:31, 4 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep. This is definitely something that is needed, both to keep track of things that happened to Wikipedia but are not notable enough for the main article and to serve as a cautionary tale for new administrators. Crisco 1492 (talk) 03:38, 4 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Rename to Main Page, then delete.... umm.... I mean Kilo-Echo-Echo-Papa (link not related) Ham  tech  person  01:20, 5 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep - It's funny and serves as cautionary tales.--Hazel77 talk 09:02, 6 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep. Otherwise, this is all going to happen again..."fair cop, guv!" Lanthanum-138 (talk) 12:54, 7 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep. Worthwhile both as humor and as a set of cautionary tales. UltraExactZZ Said~ Did 17:57, 7 April 2011 (UTC)
