List of references in Codename: Kids Next Door[edit]

An indiscriminate collection of references to other fictional works. Fine as part of an article, but not as a standalone. Lovely cruft! Wonderful cruft! Cruft cru-u-u-u-u-uft cruft cru-u-u-u-u-uft cruft. Lovely cruft! Lovely cruft! Lovely cruft! Lovely cruft! Lovely cruft! Cruft cruft cruft cruft! GarrettTalk 04:35, 11 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Strong Delete - well, at least the article doesn't have a trivia section. Oh, wait, it is a trivia section. My Alt Account 04:54, 11 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete; egregious fancruft. --MCB 05:39, 11 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete that's how cruft riders roll. Danny Lilithborne 07:00, 11 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. We just deleted one of these for Pokémon a while ago, and, while I love KND, if it's cruft for Pokémon it's SURELY cruft for anything else. - A Man In Bl♟ck (conspire | past ops) 07:34, 11 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    Oh, and censure anyone who suggests we censure anyone. Myself included. - A Man In Bl♟ck (conspire | past ops) 21:23, 11 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per cruftmongering. Bonus points for hilarious nomination. --S0uj1r0 08:06, 11 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, helps Codename: Kids Next Door fans understand the cultural background of the work. Censure nominator for gratuituously offensive nomination. Kappa 16:06, 11 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    • Comment There are plenty of fansites to help fans understand the cultural background of the work. And don't indiscriminately throw claims of being offensive around. Danny Lilithborne 17:12, 11 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
      • There are other encylopedias which partially duplicate wikipedia function but we don't close it down. I don't "indiscriminately throw claims of being offensive around", I may have to put up with offensive remarks but I'm entitled to object to them. Kappa 22:15, 11 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
        • Comment As I am entitled to object to your objection, and your objection to my objection to your objection. Now let's see where this ends! ^_^ Danny Lilithborne 00:17, 12 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    • It's a reference to Monty Python's spam song, with "spam" replaced with "cruft". I've been using this on and off for a good year now. GarrettTalk 20:57, 11 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete and censure nominator for suggesting that it would be fine as part of an article. Geoffrey Spear 20:05, 11 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • I support censuring for this suggestion. Censuring for 'gratuitous offensiveness', however would be absurd. It may have gratuitously used 'cruft', but I found it far more humorous than offensive. --S0uj1r0 20:10, 11 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • LOL. I don't really want it in the article either, but at least there it would have length limits. GarrettTalk 20:57, 11 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete as too uncontrollable of a list. But howable we don't censure anybody.-- danntm T C 21:19, 11 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete--Peta 05:36, 12 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per nom. Can someone please lend Kappa a sense of humour ? Angus McLellan (Talk) 17:03, 12 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep-- I agree with Kappa's comment about 'cultural background of the work.' Furthermore, although there are some fansites that also lists the cultural background of KND, wikipedia is by far a most reconizable source thus making it an apporpriate place to post it. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Bertabanes (talk • contribs) .
  • Comment-- Instead of deleting the article altogether and losing all of that information, I suggust someone redirect it to the main page of KND or shorten it to make it easier for some people to understand. But hey, that's just my opinion. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Bertabanes (talk • contribs) .
  • Delete per nom. Indrian 02:48, 15 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Nuke from orbit. It's the only way to be sure. --Calton | Talk 05:07, 15 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
