There are 100+ pages in this name space. Should we go through and delete the lot of them? Nominally Humane! 01:55 02 Apr
- No. -- The Zombiebaron 02:59, April 2, 2012 (UTC)
- Okay. Why not? Nominally Humane! 03:45 02 Apr
- They Are a part of our history.--WELCOME TO UNCYCLOPEDIA HELL!!!!
04:18, April 2, 2012 (UTC) - Why would we? I see absolutely no reason to go through and delete them all. -- The Zombiebaron 14:35, April 2, 2012 (UTC)

Nah - they're a name space that should never be used. If there is anything of value in then it should have been in the forum itself. Nominally Humane! 05:31 02 Apr
- Oh, I saw it. Disable it as well.--WELCOME TO UNCYCLOPEDIA HELL!!!! 06:10, April 2, 2012 (UTC)

- is it just me or are puppy's pointless crusades getting more and more pointless --210.168.185.68 17:31, April 2, 2012 (UTC)
- I'm just trying to clear up pages that are pointless, or bad, or redundant. And it was either ask or just drop them all on QVFD. Deleting 100 odd pages is a chore, but not an extreme one if it's just a case of going through a bundle of pages. On a side note, does anyone know how to get a measure of how many pages are in what name space? Nominally Humane! 09:05 02 Apr
- Just so you know, "deleting 100 odd pages" is actually super easy with the Batch Delete script. Also, from an admin point of view, "deleting a page" is the same as "hiding a page". Since ForumTalk pages are already pretty well hidden, I fail to see what purpose deleting them would serve. -- The Zombiebaron 01:08, April 3, 2012 (UTC)
- Why delete pages when they obviously still exist? --

- "Pointless, bad or redundant" is a pretty good summation of our ethos. Sir Modusoperandi Boinc! 06:47, April 3, 2012 (UTC)
- Cool. Do these add to our "content" page count at all? Nominally Humane! 06:55 03 Apr
- Nope. -- The Zombiebaron 14:12, April 3, 2012 (UTC)

BRING THEM BACK
They are a worthwhile way to discuss forums that have been archived without bumping them unnecessarily! By nature, they do not invite lingering debates or drama due to their natural behind-the-scenes status. I just tried to create a Forum Talk and was met harshly but the fucking abuse filter. Fuck that guy! Fuck him HARD. --Argylesocks (talk) 06:36, 5 August 2014 (UTC)
