[edit] Move?

On consideration, I (the writer of this essay) think it ought to be moved into my userspace. Not because it's not an OK essay (in my opinion) but just because it's not a very important concept, and I don't want to clutter up Wikispace. Even though the essay has only been here a couple of days, I don't want to violate WP:OWN, so... does anyone object to this? Herostratus 17:00, 17 June 2006 (UTC)

• Agreed. This is an amusing essay, but seems not so appropriate to Wikipedia-space. As the principal editor, please do move it into your User-space; I was going to do so myself, to follow up on my comments made during Wikipedia:Miscellany_for_deletion/Wikipedia:Don't_be_lazy. --Leflyman^Talk 06:59, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
  • OK, right, I kind of forgot about it. I don't think it's unsuitable, just trivial, but either way. Herostratus 07:11, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Wow

This is sheer genius. :) —Nightstallion (?) 10:51, 15 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] What's the point of this essay?

This essay basically just seems to be a funny description of something that has happened to vanity articles a couple of times. Or am I missing something? Either way, no offense to the creator, it just struck me as a rather unfulfilling read since it seems to lack a thesis. --tjstrf 01:36, 16 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Schadenfreude

This term would be pretty fitting for your essay ;-) Nice work! Antelan ^talk 06:03, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
