Ego surfingEdit
I'm not sure if we need an article on ego surfing, but even if we do, this isn't it. --fvw* 18:42, 2005 Jan 28 (UTC)
- Delete. POV, unencyclopedic. This is by user Agquarx, who has been inserting extreme POV statements in articles like Poland and Teresa Salgueiro, and has created gibberish articles like this one and
datastream. Not sure if this is a clueless newbie or some vandal. JoaoRicardo 20:49, 28 Jan 2005 (UTC)- Comment. The article I wanted to list above was actually datapackets. JoaoRicardo 20:52, 28 Jan 2005 (UTC)
- This article is rolling over in ready-ready happy-happy quality, and caused me to experience a cyan-green-yellowgreeen feeling. Delete, Wikipedia is not for stream-of-consciousness. --Zarquon 21:51, 28 Jan 2005 (UTC)

- Should have been speedy deleted just because it hurts the eyes. :) We probably should have an article about ego surfing, but this isn't it. Delete. RickK 23:48, Jan 28, 2005 (UTC)
- Delete, un-encyclopaedic POV. Megan1967 01:03, 29 Jan 2005 (UTC)
- Move to Wiktionary I've removed all the nonsense and replaced it with a dictdef. --LeeHunter 15:42, 29 Jan 2005 (UTC)
- Yup, this is a move to wiktionary. I'm not sure why you did it like this though. If you'd just created the ego surfing article on wiktionary and left this to be deleted, the extra effort of moving to wiktionary (is anybody actually doing those anymore?) would have been unnecessary. --fvw* 16:07, 2005 Jan 29 (UTC)
- Agreed. Move to wiktionary. Narrower in scope than googling, but 'to google' has one meaning not represented in the Wiktionary article which is "to look for a proper name, be it person, place or thing, using a search engine to the end of assessing it's internet presence as opposed to finding information about it".
