Capade[edit]

The article sounds sensible, but turns out to be a neologism coined as an experiment. It refuses to cite sources, although it states that some capades (pranks) received media coverage. Delete. JFW | T@lk 19:11, 8 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

The only things that turn up in research are the ice capades, which are entirely unrelated. This is a concept (with a name that is a pun on "escapade") coined by one person that has not been accepted by by reliable sources and the world at large. The article hyperlinked to above indicates that this is also an attempt to use Wikipedia by that person and one or more associates to promulgate that concept. This is original research. Moreover, the article tells us outright in its closing paragraph that it is unverifiable. Delete. Uncle G 19:59, 8 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

BJAODN and delete' Author's blog admits hoax, but it is an excellent piece of writing nonetheless and should not be lost. BJAODN contains way less amusing stuff than this. Denni ☯ 01:14, 9 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
