WikiRoadRunner


Part of the proliferation of wikifauna. This was created by a sock and does nothing to help collaboration. Guerillero &#124;  Parlez Moi  04:50, 18 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep- The nominator uses the same generic reason he applies to all other Wikifauna essays he is MfDing, apart from one difference, mentioning that the original author was a sockpuppet. If the original author had created this essay after his block was initiated, WP:G5 would apply, as long as no other editors had made significant contributions. However, the original editor created this essay before he was blocked, and other editors have contributed to the article, so the original editor being a sock is completely immaterial to whether or not the article should be kept. Apart from that, while the essay could stand to be improved, the Nominator gives no other reason why this particular nomination should be deleted, he merely provided the generic reason he has provided for the multiple Wikifauna MfD nominations he has posted in a very short time. It seems like the decision to nominate is being made based on an opinion of Wikifauna as a whole, not based on objective review of individual essays. That's not how deletion nominations should work, and it starts to approach violating WP:POINT. I don't see how most or even any wikifauna "increase collaberation on the project." Can anyone give me any examples of wikifauna that do increase collaboration on the project in a concrete way, and examples of how they do that? This essay doesn't violate any policies, it doesn't contradict or subvert policy, and it is related to Wikipedia, at least as related as many other Wikifauna. Like all Wikifauna, it's an essay, and essays are generally kept, even if they are just humorous essays, unless they violate, subvert, or contradict policy, or don't have anything to do with Wikipedia.

 * Comment- The sock here. I don't think, looking back, that WikiRoadRunner was necessary or truly humorous. But, since other editors have edited, it's not all of my doing, therefore... I'm neutral. And I wouldn't post a Keep/Delete here anyway, because I'm circumventing, but if it is my article being threatened, I would think I'd be able to comment on its RfD/MfD. --69.223.186.8 (talk) 18:18, 19 September 2015 (UTC) (TZLNCTV)
