Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Perkins joke
Appearance
This appears to be an in-joke of some type. The page is orphaned, and none the people and organizations mentioned on the page appear to be insignificant:
- Maxx Bartko and Brett Schnieder of Excuse the Expression, Greg
Bartko gets six google hits; Excuse the Expression, Greg, gets zero. -- Dominus 18:24, 29 Oct 2004 (UTC)
- Nonsense. Delete. RickK 19:20, Oct 29, 2004 (UTC)
- . . . And then the page was deleted by a man named Perkins. Lacrimosus 21:24, 29 Oct 2004 (UTC)
- Delete: Vanity page for a "type of joke" invented in... in... Yes, 2004! Wow. It's called a shaggy dog story, Mr. Perkins. Geogre 23:46, 29 Oct 2004 (UTC)
- Delete. Definitely. --LeeHunter 00:28, 30 Oct 2004 (UTC)
- Delete. An unknown joke by a an equally unknown comedy troupe. Inky 01:31, 30 Oct 2004 (UTC)
- Delete unless good evidence for somewhat widespread use is presented. 14 Google hits for "perkins joke" (exact phrase), none relevant. In Google Groups, search limited to rec.humor.funny, I get 5 hits on the single work "perkins," non relevant. (rec.humor.funny is not an enormous collection; had it been present it would have verified the existence of the joke format, but its absence isn't terribly significant).
