Lueshi

Severe fancruft - better merged with GameFAQs message boards if mentioned at all. Article was restored because of inapporpriate AFD procedures (see Talk:Lueshi for details). Hbdragon88 05:22, 11 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to GameFAQs message boards. - Mgm|^(talk) 11:47, 12 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Even Shigeru Miyamoto has acknowledged the fad. - Stoph 04:49, 13 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Delete or merge individual pieces of ascii art aren't encyclopedic, and Google hits are extremely low for an "internet phenomenon". Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 14:21, 13 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - pointless and non-encyclopedic. Couldn't this get speedied? Toffile 05:36, 14 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- It has been speedied; the second AFD was speedied. Unfortuantely, an admin restored it because of "inproper procedures," which is why I've renominated it for AFD again. Hbdragon88 06:10, 15 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  - Fortunately, my friend, fortunately. Deletion is a serious act, not to be done on a whim or carelessly. mikka (t) 19:45, 16 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Also, on the second thought, please do not merge. There is no place for this in either GameFAQs or GameFAQs Message Boards. --Toffile 00:09, 16 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  - It's always been on GameFAQs Message Boards in much smaller form. - Stoph 00:31, 16 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
    - The section it's in is heading for the chopping block though. Toffile 01:30, 16 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. This is a significant piece of internet history that deserves to exist. Cowpowder 21:07, 15 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to GameFAQs message boards. mikka (t) 19:43, 16 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Maybe because I myself am a LUEser, and LUEshi is important in its own right Sceptre ^(Talk) 10:48, 18 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Merge (but do not delete) to GameFAQs message boards as per Mgm. Although I am not a hardcore gamer, I am quite familiar with this image. LUEishi is worth mentioning on the GameFAQs article IMHO, but not so notable that it needs an article of its own. Can't sleep, clown will eat me 10:51, 18 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Keep ♦ Pabix ℹ 13:14, 18 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Keep LUEshi may have started out on the GameFAQs boards, but since then has gone far beyond it. Even Miyamoto has acknowledged the fad, and it's well known. There's no reason to delete or merge the article when it makes sense for it to have its own page. Ahnonamis 19:26, 18 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

keep. One of the internet's finest fads. Keep in quick reference alone. Deletiion is discrimination - kunae — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.17.216.235 (talk • contribs) 22:10, 12 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. I don't see why these "less significant topics" shouldn't have articles of their own. I mean, really, its not like anyone else is going to use http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LUEshi. Also, don't you think wikipedia should really be about the spread of knowledge, freely? I reiterate. Keep. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.229.140.166 (talk • contribs) 13:14, 18 December 2005 UTC (UTC)
Delete. It's a waste of space, and exists solely for the amusement and egos of a few people from one website. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.169.124.140 (talk • contribs) 17:50, 18 December 2005 UTC (UTC)
Keep. i agree keep this because i know years from now someone will be looking for this information and everything about it, and how miyamoto acknowledged it and everything !!! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.231.140.74 (talk • contribs) 18:18, 18 December 2005 UTC (UTC)
Keep. This is a symbol for thousands of people at least, and is important to a huge number more. It has a history and is very significant to a famous part of a big website. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.7.244.197 (talk • contribs) 18:25, 18 December 2005 UTC (UTC)
Keep. This is so significant. Why even consider deleting it in the first place? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.177.168.194 (talk • contribs) 18:35, 18 December 2005 UTC (UTC)
Keep. This is the single greatest wikipedia article in the history of mankind. 10/10 WOULD BY FROM AGAIN — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.13.209.154 (talk • contribs) 18:58, 18 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Have you ever been signed by Miyamoto? Exactly, therefore it is an accomplishment. -ACinsomnia — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.122.98.138 (talk • contribs) 19:01, 18 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. There are other things people should be worried about getting rid of on wiki. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.68.51.185 (talk • contribs) 19:06, 18 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
