This bit probably doesn't belong in Wikipedia, which doesn't want content that expresses an opinion. What would be the best way to express this in a more neutral way? AdamAtlas 02:56, 10 Oct 2004 (UTC)

message: Vote for Deletion again - If every 17 year old internet geek had an article on Wikipedia then there would be twice as many pages as there are now.

replies: text: Next time you would like to put something on AfD, please do so using the procedures found at WP:AFD.  The problem with not following the outlined procedure is that you get a page like this that has had an AfD discussion on the talk page for about a year, with nobody concluding it because it doesn't use the proper templates and does not have a discussion of its own.  Since the vast majority of votes on this page are keep I am going to be bold and "conclude" it, moving the AfD-related contents of the talk page to a separate archive, and adding a "survived pseudo-AfD" notice to the top of the page. --TexasDex 02:17, 9 February 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Deletion Vote

message: I voted down the presence of Ultimate Showdown's article a while ago. Back then it wasn't significant, important, or anything. However, now it seems to have become a very, very big online hit and has a cult following big enough to result in incredible increase in traffic to Cicierega's weblog, forums, and ultimately way more album orders. I was thinking; now that it's become such a significant thing, should it have it's own article again? The "list of characters" is rather cumbersome and near-irrelevant to Cicierega himself here, and the huge stuff about it makes it feel like it's all Cicierega is when it isn't.

message: I'm thinking that there may be enough information on Lemon Demon for it to be given its own main article. (Lemon Demon currently redirects here.) Neil is putting together a live band; at past performances they've been a duo, Neil with his friend Alora Lanzillotta as the bassist, but they are now working with a guitarist and drummer, so Lemon Demon will soon be more than Neil. I think the fact that Lemon Demon is frequently played by Dr. Demento meets the WP:MUSIC notability guidelines. Any thoughts? —Adam Atlas 03:12, 24 April 2006 (UTC)

I just thought this might be a good idea seeing as this is the article on Neil Cicierega the person, not just his band. Depending on how exactly things work, there are multiple pictures throughout the Internet  of his face, recent ones.   Captainstoat 02:58, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

message: I have done some cleansing in this article. Much of the informations in this article was about his life, the software he uses and a long list of pretty much everything he ever released on the Internet. He truly deserves a wikipedia article but it should stick to what makes him worthy of one: his known work, his status of the internet, etc. and not a long list of what he has done and how he did it.

:I have done some more cleanup, in particular to provide a more neutral point of view. The cleanup tag is still on the article.

replies: text: Lemon Demon redirects here because Lemon Demon is just a performance name for Neil. Potter Puppet Pals is by Neil but isn't exclusively Neil's and judging on it's popularity should be notable enough for it's own article (there have been talks to make a separate page but nothing happened), but there is no Potter Puppet Pals band, just Potter Puppet Pals which have animations, live-action videos and music (which doesn't seem to be mentioned in the article either).

There's a good amount of information to be found there, including that he was homeschooled after he killed another kid  when he was eleven  (he claims the other kid was bullying him), and as recently as 2008 he lived in his parents' basement and their ten cats , who were part of what he calls a "cattery business."
