Wikipedia is not a forum for creative fiction. This is a neat idea community-building, de-stressing idea, but that can and should happen on a fun-and-games WikiCity. The Wikipedia: namespace is intended for instructions, advice, policy, and related discussions. Unrelated items simply become clutter here. -- Beland 03:00, 19 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep, community-building is a major goal of the wikipedia namespace. --Gmaxwell 03:46, 19 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Userfy or Transwiki to meta. →Iñgōlemo← talk 03:49, 2005 May 19 (UTC)

- Keep, I don't see any reason to delete. Demi T/C 04:09, 2005 May 19 (UTC)
- Keep. This is part of WP:FUN, part of the community-building programs at Wikipedia. Beland, if you have an issue with this, please contribute to the relative talk pages, not VFD. Zzyzx11 (Talk) 04:51, 19 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- I respectfully dissent with the above. Delete, I don't see how this advances encyclopedia-writing. Gazpacho 05:09, 19 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. Reminds me of crazy forum games seen on GameFAQs etc. I second the above, NOT encyclopedic. Master Thief Garrett 07:00, 19 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Interesting. Is it notable/meritworthy/comprehensible/encyclopaedic ? No vote --Simon Cursitor 07:42, 19 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. From the top of the Community Portal - "Together we are building an encyclopedia and a wiki community." --the wub (talk) 08:20, 19 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep of course - let's not be boring Brookie: A collector of little brown things 16:48, 22 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. Yes, it's silly and of little value as a finished product, but as a process it is a community-building activity, and the benefits of keeping outweigh those of removing. Antandrus (talk) 16:56, 22 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
