[edit] I Love It

Great essay! Jehochman (talk/contrib) 01:49, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

Yes, it's a great page :-D   — Athænara ✉ 05:07, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
Fun essay with good links. A true novelty! Suggest adding a stage 6 - "Selectively spam your own websites with Wikipedia censorship claims." Google searches: [1] [2]. 4.246.226.66 03:33, 19 May 2007 (UTC)
Excellent. Really sublime :) Cheers, Moreschi Talk 18:39, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

Quality stuff, and right on the money. --Stormie 21:31, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Attack page?

Seems to fit the criteria... --badlydrawnjeff talk 03:48, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

Can you expand your comments. This is an essay. Jehochman ☎ / ✔ 04:47, 22 May 2007 (UTC)
Looks more like an attempt to help people through a difficult time. Not sure how you can see the as an attack page. H 05:00, 22 May 2007 (UTC)
He's right, it's a blatant and unprovoked attack on defenseless, hardworking spammers. Nice work, too. --Tony Sidaway 11:59, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] MathIsFun

I suggest that this diff be removed from the essay. As per Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Math Is Fun, this is not example of "spam".

I am not associated with MathIsFun (in fact, I am from a different country; check my IP, if you wish). But, I am concerned that this might end up being an attack page.

It is not appropriate to cite an active editor's statement for keeping an article as example of spam, especially when the article survived an AfD. Why accuse a resepectable editor of being a spammer? There are many better examples that can be included here. 202.54.176.51 14:29, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

It is an excellent example of that stage in grief. However since he ended up being correct perhaps it is not the ideal example. (H) 14:37, 22 May 2007 (UTC)
Replaced with this. Veinor (talk to me) 17:05, 29 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Humor

I was tempted to transclude { {humor} } on here, but too bad it says humor can't serve a serious purpose - when obviously you are trying to help these poor lost souls. Psu256 18:05, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

When you can't find one you like, make one! I think it safely warns drifters without detracting from the content's true intent. -wizzard2k (C•T•D) 07:14, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
