User:Barneca/Requests for Jimboship/Barneca

The Cabal must be preserved at all costs. And Jimbo has offered me supreme executive power in the form of my own status of "Lord Protector of the Cabal", similar to his own Founder status with unknown abilities. Note that per new policy I have just made up now, in lieu of deletion we will indefinitely protect the coup attempt, at least until someone unprotects it with their own fictional policy creation. While protected, someone else can do something else bizarre with policy until 23:59 on April 1st, when we will sacrificially offer Jimmy up to He Who Walks Behind The Rows. Flounder tastes good with corn. Lawrence § t/e 18:52, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

• Support deletion, Jimbo is perfectly adequate for the role. Thanks, SqueakBox 18:54, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

Note to closing admin: Squeakbox is apparently experiencing technical difficulties. Lawrence § t/e 18:56, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

• Madness! Subversion of the democratic process! A scourge on the name of all things that are good and right in the world! Oh, and anti-truthiness, too. The request for Jimboship must stay! - Philippe 18:55, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

• Madness? THIS IS SPARTA!!!! Just kidding, had to say that after that comment. Happy April Fools Day, everyone. Red Phoenix (Talk) 20:01, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

• Barneca needs to MfD this MfD. Hut 8.5 18:57, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

• As someone who has actually MFD'd an AFD before myself, I support this procedural vortex. Lawrence § t/e 18:58, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

• Support. They are all voting for the wrong person anyway.—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); 19:07, 1 April 2008 (UTC)
  • I think you mean the other wrong person, by the way. --Ali'i 19:13, 1 April 2008 (UTC)
    • Aren't you one of them turtles yet?—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); 19:46, 1 April 2008 (UTC)
      • I believe you mean honu. And no. Never will be. I've got magixist powzers on my side. Speaking of images I uploaded: Image:Punaluu turtle.jpg (oh we weren't really talking about that?) Turtle, turtle. --Ali'i 19:52, 1 April 2008 (UTC)
• Strong support The "sole flounder" must remain the sole flounder. EJF (talk) 19:24, 1 April 2008 (UTC)
• Oppose, down with the establishment! Wizardman 19:45, 1 April 2008 (UTC)
• Voting is evil! Evil, I tell you! --Carnildo (talk) 19:46, 1 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Comment to closing admin, if this argument is valid perhaps you could/should ignore all the keep votes. Thanks, SqueakBox 19:52, 1 April 2008 (UTC)
• #%@$#&!^#. I am so angry tight now, I don't know what to do. When I calm down, I will choose from one of the following options:
  • Make vague legal threats. Con: I'll get blocked. Pro: Resulting thread on WP:ANI might cause amusing drama.
  • Block Lawrence for trolling. Pro: I can then say the nom made in bad faith by a known troll. Con: I might be just the tiniest bit "involved". Another Pro: Resulting thread on WP:ANI might cause amusing drama.
  • Simply ignore this attempted coup, as being beneath my imperial notice. Pro: Less typing for me. Con: The MfD might actually close as "delete".
  • Pay off Lawrence and Squeakbox; they seem to be the ringleaders. Pro: Elegantly Machiavellian. Con: If 1000 Class A shares of Wikipedia can't sway them, I have nothing else to offer.
  • Sic Wizardman on them. This seems my best option. Wizardman, turtles all around, please! --barneca (talk) 19:53, 1 April 2008 (UTC)
• Countdown to Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/User:Barneca/Requests for Jimboship/Barneca ... 5 ... 4 ... 3 ... 2 ... --B (talk) 19:59, 1 April 2008 (UTC)
  • I don't have Twinkle, so MfD'ing something is too complicated for me. Plus, I'm worried the meta-paradox of having an MfD of an MfD would create a tear in the spacetime continuum, leading to all sorts of terrible things, like dogs and cats living together or something. --barneca (talk) 20:16, 1 April 2008 (UTC)
    • I've done it for you. Hut 8.5 20:27, 1 April 2008 (UTC)
• Support adminship of the page itself. —  scetoaux (T/C) 20:52, 1 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Perhaps a courtesy blanking at April 2, 2008 13.00 UTC as we are an international encyclopedia. Thanks, SqueakBox 21:04, 1 April 2008 (UTC)
• Neutral If Jimbo wants to have Barnecaship, why not? And why should he? Eh? LessHeard vanU (talk) 21:07, 1 April 2008 (UTC)
• Speedy comment: I have no opinion on this. Friday (talk) 21:12, 1 April 2008 (UTC)
• If it helps, I'd be willing to userfy. oh, wait... --barneca (talk) 21:48, 1 April 2008 (UTC)
• Oppose – Barneca will be easier to overthrow than Jimbo, so my plans for the domination of Wikipedia will be one step closer to completion. (evil grin) Wait, forget you've ever heard that. Waltham, The Duke of 23:50, 1 April 2008 (UTC)
• Oppose - And considering you haven't paid me yet for keeping the natives from storming the castle, you'll be even easier to overthrow than Barneca will be. (sniggering evilly) John Carter (talk) 00:19, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
