The result of the debate was delete. Barno's reason to merge doesn't wash; I've read half a dozen full-fledged books on the browser wars and none of them even touches on this. Besides, this wouldn't fit in the article, like at least 2/3rds of all merges from AfD that either throw the size of the article devoted to trivial matters out of whack or cover something all but tangentially related to the article.

Not an Internet meme. A very obscure catch-phrase, on par with (or below) "The magic words are squeamish ossifrage" or "You are not expected to understand this." There's nothing to say about it except "one Microsoft engineer put it in a DLL once," so it's not encyclopedic. Non-notable, non-encyclopedic — maybe even a speedy delete.

- Merge this bit of trivia into browser wars. Smerdis of Tlön 16:04, 17 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete, a strange comment found in program source code is very non-notable. As a computer programmer myself I have written much stranger comments. JIP | Talk 18:51, 17 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge into browser wars. This was a widely discussed bit of trivia that was often used to characterize the tone of the Microsoft Internet Explorer vs. Netscape Navigator battle, which led to one of the biggest and most noted government antitrust actions ever.

- Delete. I would consider All your base are belong to us as the baseline for inclusion of nonsense phrases. This doesn't pass it. Stifle 16:50, 18 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
