This is rather, uh, preposterous - a "list" of 3 terms under an inherently POV article title -- Ferkelparade π 10:57, 23 Feb 2005 (UTC)

  • Well bugger you you ********. I don't care what you think - George W Bush is a pillock!
  • Delete, there is no way, we can manage editing this article objectively. Mgm|(talk) 11:10, Feb 23, 2005 (UTC)

  • Concur, Delete. Radiant! 11:26, Feb 23, 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete - DavidWBrooks 11:27, 23 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • The George W Bush comment ties this in with the past vandalism from this IP address. See WP:VIP#217.33.207.195. This is more of the same. Speedy Delete. Uncle G 12:04, 2005 Feb 23 (UTC)
  • GWB being a pillock has nothing to do with how deleteworthy the article is (very). DS 13:26, 23 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Preposterous article in the english wikipedia. Delete Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 13:51, Feb 23, 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. Neologisms not in real use. Bad organizing principle for a list. Not encyclopedic and no potential to become encyclopedic. Dpbsmith (talk) 15:16, 23 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. Unencyclopedic and useless article. Carrp | Talk 15:18, 23 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, It's all been said. Inter 15:54, 23 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • 217.33.207.195 (talk • contribs) is a serial vandal. Probably worthy of permablock. Delete. jpgordon∇∆∇∆ 16:49, 23 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. — Brim 18:27, Feb 23, 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. The only preposterous word in the English language is "preposterous". --TenOfAllTrades | Talk 19:24, 23 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Redirect to inherently funny words (on the off chance someone ever looks up this specific term) - but scrap these made-up terms. --BD2412 22:40, 23 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. The article is completely useless. I think none of the words even exist. I don't think this is even worth redirecting. 193.167.132.66 12:46, 24 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. Subluxation of the article produces osteochondral crepitus of the margo acetabularis. -Ashley Pomeroy 22:28, 24 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. Serious candidate for BJAODN. vlad_mv 03:43, 26 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. Nonsense. cesarb 04:14, 26 Feb 2005 (UTC)
