- Xkcd theory (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (delete) – (View log)
This article's content is based only on text found in one strip of a webcomic. It is not notable and has not been put forth as "Xkcd theory" anywhere else. I prodded it earlier, but it was declined. Mysdaao talk 12:56, 15 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per the admission in the article. "Somebody realized that it just made sense, and posted the theory on Wikipedia". Sjakkalle (Check!) 13:07, 15 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. WP:OR, WP:MADEUP. There ought to be a speedy criterion for this, but it just doesn't fit with any of the existing ones. JulesH (talk) 13:25, 15 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Not a scientific theory, but a joke from a webcomic taken out of context. Doc StrangeMailboxLogbook 13:49, 15 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- The amusing thing is, it is a perfectly valid theory. Just not an original one. JulesH (talk) 14:45, 15 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Xkcd is my 2nd fav. comic (sinfest is #1) but no love for this page without citations. Hobit (talk) 14:29, 15 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Only applies to people and music. JulesH (talk) 14:43, 15 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Speedy delete (G3) as pure hoaxery, clearly an attempt to disrupt the encyclopedia. MuZemike (talk) 15:28, 15 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete as patent nonsense. LinguistAtLarge 17:14, 15 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
