Deletion of Apple Wellington Poem Page

This page was deleted on the ground of being "patent nonsense," however, it does not fall under either definition of "patent nonsense" given by Wikipedia. Nonsense "falls into two categories: 1. Total nonsense, i.e., text or random characters that have no assignable meaning at all. This includes sequences such as "sdfgdsfkgdyhkflmaololol;;'dsfg", in which keys of the keyboard have been pressed with no regard for what is typed. 2. Content that, while apparently meaningful after a fashion, is so completely and irredeemably confused that no reasonable person can be expected to make any sense of it whatsoever."

Wikipedia, Patent nonsense, available at, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:PN (last visited Jan. 29, 2009).

The page had legible, comprehensible text. People were able to make sense of the text and its meaning. As a result, "patent nonsense" is not a valid basis for deleting the page. There may be other bases for deletion, but deletion on the basis of "patent nonsense" is an arbitrary and capricious use of your power to delete. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Wellingtonapple (talk • contribs) 21:32, 29 January 2009 (UTC)

Yes it is patent nonsense, it's about some form of poetry you made up. Stifle (talk) 16:45, 31 January 2009 (UTC)
