Captain Obvious (talk - history - links - logs)

Keep

  1. It's a real life expression that's since been used In-Universe. As a canon article, there's no reason to delete it. —Jaymach Ral'Tir (talk) 02:15, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
  2. Obnoxious as it is to see this... canon it is. Wildyoda 02:17, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
  3. This is a vote to keep the Captain Obvious article. StarNeptuneTalk to me! 03:46, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
  4. Per StarNeptune. -- Ozzel 03:48, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
  5. Doesn't matter if it's a real-life term or not.Kuralyov 04:10, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
  6. This is a vote to keep the Captain Obvious article. It is much like StarNeptune's vote to keep the Captain Obvious article. In fact, the first sentence uses the exact words originally used by StarNeptune to vote to keep the Captain Obvious article. This sentence is followed by my signature. jSarek 10:44, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

  8. Per StarNeptune. Green Tentacle (Talk) 11:24, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
  9. I was all set to vote to delete it since it is in Ric Olie's BtS section, having forgotten that it is now IU with Shatterpoint. It should stay. - JMAS 12:39, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
  10. This vote is basically akin to putting a match into a raging bonfire. It's vote number 10. This user will now copy StarNeptune and say, This is a vote to keep the Captain Obvious article. Now I will copy jSarek and say, "This sentence is followed by my signature.". JorrelWiki-shrinkableFraajic 19:27, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
  11. Per Ric Olié. -- I need a name (Complain here) 19:30, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

  13. Riff was here. -- Riffsyphon1024 18:52, 4 April 2007 (UTC)
  14. Keep!! McEwok 20:10, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
  15. I have used this article! Darth Seth 16:36, 19 April 2007 (UTC)
  16. This is my vote. My vote is followed by my signature. I signed my signature by typing four tildes. —Xwing328(Talk) 01:49, 21 April 2007 (UTC)

Merge

Redirect

  1. This is a vote for redirecting Captain Obvious to Ric Olié. KEJ 23:11, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

Delete

  1. Nominated. This is a real-life expression. Does it really belong in Wookieepedia? Jedibob5 01:55, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
  2. Well, I agree with Jedibob. Do we really need this?--Windu223 14:34, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

Comments

  • I'm not sure how to vote here. We really don't have any consistency for "pejorative names" here on Wookieepedia:
So, would Captain Obvious redirect to Mace Windu since that's who the insult was directed at? At the moment I'm leaning towards a disambiguation page. - Esjs 07:53, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
