Hmmm...=[edit]

Hmmm... If this article is allowed, I guess I'll make a page on Doug Stanhope. He's even more critical of religion, and there seems to be a huge debate on YouTube over whether him or Bill Hicks was a better comedian.

Why do we need information on a YouTube debate? Why does this article exist? Who the hell is this person? - π 03:46, 12 June 2009 (UTC)
Bill Hicks is a now-dead, extremely vulgar and funny comedian. He often bashed politicians and fundamentalists in his act. --Gulik 06:39, 12 June 2009 (UTC)
Will anyone object to me deleting this, as few seem interested? - π 02:50, 20 June 2009 (UTC)
I mean, I love Bill Hicks as much as anyone, but there's really no reason for him to have an article here. I think it can be deleted, especially since it's in a fairly useless form. I'd be willing to write it (I'm a big fan) but I don't think it brings much to the table either way. --PitchBlackMind 03:05, 20 June 2009 (UTC)
Do you think you could write an article on him relevant to our mission? - π 03:06, 20 June 2009 (UTC)
That's the thing, outside of his rants against fundies and Republicans, he's not particularly relevant to the mission. While he's very funny, and his commentary still relevant, I think it's superfluous. --PitchBlackMind 03:14, 20 June 2009 (UTC)
Oh well, I'll get rid of it then. - π 13:57, 20 June 2009 (UTC)
