I created an article with three links to coverage by reliable sources, two of which were significant. The article clearly identified the subject, and was tagged and deleted as patent nonsense, without any communication whatsoever with the creating account.

The reason I deleted the article was that the wikilinks did not have the proper markup. In addition, "See also" should be used instead of "See articles" and "External links" should be substituted for "Sites". Willking1979 (talk) 02:43, 6 October 2009 (UTC)
I'm not sure any of those reasons are relevant to CSD, and sadly I note that User talk:...and the circus leaves town is still a redlink. ϢereSpielChequers 09:16, 6 October 2009 (UTC)
Wow. I had to read Williking's comment a few times to make sure it wasn't a subtle parody. (Just to check: he did genuinely mean that comment, right?)
I think we can end this experiment now; it's an obvious success. --Gwern (contribs) 22:37 8 October 2009 (GMT)
