  • Delete - College student. (With this own theme song...) - Tεxτurε 21:40, 11 Jun 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. Although now I want my own theme song. Joyous 23:15, Jun 11, 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete, and I'm perfectly content not having my own theme song. —Stormie 02:03, Jun 12, 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete - What I want is a laugh track. -- Cyrius| 05:02, 12 Jun 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep - Someone showed me this link... I say keep it. Seriously, he is still a legend on campus. His name has entered the everyday vocabulary at the Clarmont Colleges, and I have heard it has spread to other schools nationwide. In fact, call the main campus to see that this submission was likely not intended to be a joke or vanity page. -- A Mudder 09:30, 13 Jun 2004 (UTC)
    • Anon vote - same college student? - Tεxτurε 04:48, 14 Jun 2004 (UTC)
      • Keep - Mamasuga, I named my firstborn after you! You're a god among men. I enthusiastically vote to keep this entry; it serves as an important living document on this great cultural phenomenon. --West Dormer '96. 09:39, 12 Jun 2004 (UTC)
        • Anon vote - 7 minutes after the prior vote - Voting time is faked - Tεxτurε 04:48, 14 Jun 2004 (UTC)
          • I'm really getting tired of seeing vanity page authors fake support for themselves (badly) three times a week. I guess it happens because they don't realize that we see this sort of thing all the time, and they have an overinflated view of their own cleverness. "I know, I'll write a Wikipedia article about myself. I bet nobody's ever tried that before! What? Listed for deletion? I'll just pretend to be multiple supporters, they'll never see through that!" -- Cyrius| 04:59, 14 Jun 2004 (UTC)

Rebuttal -- This is ANON vote #1. ANON vote #2 was someone who I passed the link along to. Please be assured that I am NOT Mamasuga, and you would be surprised to see that "Mamasuga" is in fact a well known figure on the campuses of the Claremont Colleges. And the times were not faked, but are PST.

  • Not only was it faked but it was done badly. It shows as a day earlier than your first post even though the page history shows it as being 7 minutes later. - Tεxτurε 16:28, 14 Jun 2004 (UTC)
    • Actually, the first comment was made at ~9:30 pm PDT, if you adjust for time zones, and ignore the fact that they excluded the "pm" and "PDT" and don't seem to know what UTC means. The second comment is also at the roughly correct time if you take the 12th to be a typo. -- Cyrius| 18:35, 14 Jun 2004 (UTC)
A person contacted me via IRC claiming to be Mamasuga. The address used was in the 67.114.*.* range, which is outside the ones used for writing the article or making comments in this deletion discussion. He seemed embarassed by the whole thing and disclaimed responsibility for the article or the comments.
I don't know if he is or isn't the person responsible, but if he isn't, could the people trying to save this article please stop? You're making him look bad. -- Cyrius| 05:34, 14 Jun 2004 (UTC)
  • I've said it before and I'll say it again: The worst vanity posters are college students. Oh, and I want not only my own theme song, but my own sitcom as well to go with it! Delete this one, BTW. - Lucky 6.9 06:11, 14 Jun 2004 (UTC)
  • Wikipedia != cheap personal website. Delete. -- EuroTom 11:25, 15 Jun 2004 (UTC)
