Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Smarch

Smarch was proposed for deletion. This page is an archive of the discussion about the proposed deletion. This page is no longer live. Further comments should be made on the article's talk page rather than here so that this page is preserved as an historic record. The result of the debate was to redirect the article.

A "Treehouse of Horror" joke from The Simpsons, a single joke poking fun at dramatic openings ("the thirteenth hour of the thirteenth day of the thirteenth month"). Again, every single joke from a television series does not need an individual article. Delete. Ian Pugh 02:35, 10 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Delete. And now the waiting starts for a "Bort" article to be created. Wyllium 02:39, 2004 Nov 10 (UTC)

Maybe soon we'll have The First Baby Ruth, which will explain that on the show Taxi, Louie, as the boss, would cut to the front of the line when the vending machine was refilled and get the first Baby Ruth, and rhetorically ask, as he scarfed it down, "Why does the first Baby Ruth always taste the best?", only to have Tony reply "How should we know? You always eat the first Baby Ruth." Ah, comedy! Could Charles Burrow Charles ever have supposed such jokes would be documented in such a forum? And by the way Delete. -R. fiend 02:55, 10 Nov 2004 (UTC)
Delete: For that matter, what about I can't believe I ate the whole thing? At least that joke was repeated all over the US every day for months. Delete as a single joke from a single show. Geogre 05:05, 10 Nov 2004 (UTC)
Merge content to appropriate epsiode articles, redirect to one perhaps. —siro χ o 06:05, Nov 10, 2004 (UTC)
Delete Fancruft. --Improv 19:05, 10 Nov 2004 (UTC)
Delete. I still don't like the term fancruft, but if I ever did, this would be it. This is too much detail, even for me. If someone can come up with relevant article, a redirect would be okay to discourage re-creation. (And R. fiend's reference to chocolate is making me hungry.) -[[User:Aranel|Aranel ("Sarah")]] 01:49, 11 Nov 2004 (UTC)
Redirect to Made-up words in The Simpsons, which already has an entry for Smarch. --DropDeadGorgias (talk) 15:12, Nov 11, 2004 (UTC)

Redirects are cheap, use them. Agree with DropDeadGorgias. GRider 07:04, 15 Nov 2004 (UTC)
Keep. Verifiable and factually accurate -- [[User:OldakQuill|Oldak Quill]] 23:55, 15 Nov 2004 (UTC)
