Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of computer pranks
as glad as I am to have this complete list all in one place (and I was wondering whose face that was in the "Say it" prank, so it's Linda Blair), I must admit that it does appear to be a repository of links, and as has been said before, that's not what Wikipedia is for. However, there are many other such lists on Wikipedia of examples pertaining to a specific article, and I'm not sure how different from those this can be considered, even given that it's a bunch of links. This was first put on a separate page from the main article on "computer pranks" because the complete list was cluttering up the page too much, and by its very nature, a page such as this is fundamentally supposed to be a repository of links anyway. Oh, and I'm not sure how much good it would do to have a section describing why these are classified as pranks, given that the original parent article on computer pranks explains that already. Are we supposed to copy even more material from the parent article and paste it into here, just to keep this page from being classified as ? I'm not sure what the point of that would be. Of course, on the other side, what else would citations be for on this page? What exactly are we supposed to cite? I don't know if it should be deleted or if it just needs work, but I can't deny that it is a list of examples of something with it's own page, and that has been done before. For instance, if this page is deleted, then why not go back further delete the entire page on Internet Memes, and all the articles that it is parent too? Maybe I'm just not savvy enough to understand the difference, but I don't see how that page is much further away from  than this is. --Sylocat
