The result was Super speedy keep. SynergeticMaggot 18:26, 31 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Obviously just immature spam. AQHAHAHAHAHA OMG POOP IS SO FUNNY. Grow up people. Newspaper98 21:18, 27 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Speedy keep, bad-faith nomination of very popular children's book (even though I completed the nominator's incomplete AFD effort). NawlinWiki 21:39, 27 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Speedy, strong keep - I'd like to vote for a block on Newspaper98, too. PT (s-s-s-s) 21:48, 27 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- No block - he made a good call by tagging Lugdi devi for speedy, with the reason "who cares?". Indeed it had no assertion of the girl's notability. Kimchi.sg 23:23, 27 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- I agree that Newspaper98's actions are often ill-advised, but I'm not sure it's bad faith we're seeing here, more likely just knee-jerk reactions and failure to consult Google before making a nomination. Crabapplecove 00:47, 29 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Speedy keep as bad-faith nomination. Second one today by nom. --DarkAudit 22:04, 27 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Speedy keep and remind nominator that a book (or anything) having an article here doesn't imply that wikipedia or its editors endorse or like it, just that it's verifiable and notable enough. This certainly is. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 22:28, 27 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Well, I like this book! :) PT (s-s-s-s) 22:31, 27 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Speedy keep, bad faith nom. hateless 23:00, 27 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Speedy keep, I am now convinced that the nominations for this and The Gas We Pass are bad-faith nominations. --Coredesat talk. ^_^ 23:30, 27 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Speedy keep, obviously notable book. --Kinu t/c 23:46, 27 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep, especially since the movie rights to the book have been sold. [1] --Calton | Talk 00:16, 28 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Should be a great film... in fact, the buzz is it's bound to be the #2 movie of the year. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 00:45, 28 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Speedy keep as above. WP:POINT. --badlydrawnjeff talk 01:23, 28 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep per above. Perhaps a speedy keep is justified, since it appears that the nominator should have had a chance to read the discussion of Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/The_Gas_We_Pass before nominating this one. Amazon sales rank of about 3000. Very familiar, well-known childrens' book. Published in 1993 and still in print. Dpbsmith (talk) 12:42, 28 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep per Andrew Lenahan. (I have to admit that I really don't want to see the movie, though.) Jacqui★ 18:02, 28 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Speedy keep as above. This has been a best-selling children's book for years. Crabapplecove 00:47, 29 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Strong keep per the above. -- DS1953 talk 03:26, 30 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. It's a book with an extremely strong cultural influence. Certainly notable. alphaChimp laudare 00:12, 31 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
