*Stevie Wonder is God  - joke article (but not really! Actually, this was a useful page, with a perhaps inappropriate title)
*WikiIsNotAnEncyclopedia? - blank
*The Pit and the Pendulum/Page 2
*The Balloon-Hoax/Page2
*Marilyn Manson/Bible speech -someone typed out a full speech, but it was deleted due to copyright. the page is blank now.
*PHrOzEn cReW - only delete this page, not the page its re-directed to.
*DAL - "Describe the new page here. Dalby" isn't much of a content
*Endlösung, EndlÃf¶sung, EndlÃösung - non-linkable
*Sampath
*ATTAN -- page read "ATTAN ialah seorang staf di CENTEPIS.. nama manjanya ialah `baby'... hobinya pada masa lapang ialah korek idung...."
*Boris the crazy Russian - a redirect to a non-existent page.
*Sudden Creationism - a made-up term
*The weather in Minnesota - was used as an example of a page that didn't exist; some smart aleck created it. :)
*Belgium/Koninkrijk - serves no obvious purpose
*Homepage of Sampath Suranga - some stuff from yesterday's fiasco.
*Wikipedians pub - nonsense by a visitor
*Barman - more nonsense by the same visitor
*Intelligent form - yet more nonsense by the same visitor
*Recent celebrity deaths/44 BC
*adamw - no content (note case!)
*Little blue question marks
*discounted_cash_flow - impossible to link to because of lowercase d
*Wikipedia utilities/Proofreader - an unused, and I would guess unworkable, idea.
*Quran of Iblis/Surah 2 - either source text or original writing, no evidence found for this "Quran of Satan" document which it is presenting the text
of.
*Feminism Debate/Talk and Feminism Debate - abuse of the purpose of Wikipedia.
*Re Kevin - validity of marriage of transsexual - a good article in the wrong place - moved to Legal aspects of transsexualism.
*Color Talk/Red, also various other "color talk" pages. -- Duplicate info which is currently on pages of individual colors and better left there.
*Cow story - silliness
*Eep -- silliness, moved to Bad jokes
*Parejas-amigas - someone thought Wikipedia would be a good place to set up a website for his IRC channel.
*Usuarios - part of the above
*Pargalega - ditto
*AUM? related to the American Union of Men entry; superfluous
*German names of places taken by Poland - ok, IMHO, this is a stupid page. It cannot be NPOV by virtue of the title. It is just another step in the
ever-increasingly silly Prussian axe-grinder war with Poland. Jimbo and Tim, please make it disappear!!!
*Masculist Trinity - one guy's pet theory
*QIM Tunes - more of the pet theory
*American Union of Men - yet more of the pet theory
*Tom Smith - the last of it, I think
