Special:Recentchanges ([[Talk:Special:Recentchanges|talk]] - history - links - logs)

A list. Unsourced. Doesn't follow the MOS and LG. Subject to constant edit wars, vandalism and spam. Lots of redlinks. - Sikon 15:01, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

Keep

2. Why should this be deleted, this is absurd!!! Themelle444 18:02, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
3. This must be an April Fools joke. You NEED the recentedit page to find Vandalism. Every wiki has one!--1upD 18:12, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
4. What the hell? If this is some sort of April Fools joke, then it ain't funny. Unit 8311 18:52, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

Comments

• If this is part of the wiki system, why would we delete it?--Doquis^{(HoloConference)} 17:59, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Because it's so messy and filled with spam. G.He_(Talk!) 18:10, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
    • I don't think it's possible to delete it! There's not even an edit button! Without it, how will you tell where Vandals are? They could fill a minor page with porn, and people wouldn't see it for months! —Unsigned comment by 1upD (talk • contribs)
      • Think about it: If there's no edit button, how come there's a deletion tag and a deletion category on the page? Besides, the page itself is vandalism if it gets spammed with inappropriate usernames, so why bother keeping it? G.He_(Talk!) 18:19, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
        • This is just plain stupid. If it's an April fools thing, then like I just said, it's the worst one ever, and if it isn't, then obviously the world is descending into insanity.Unit 8311 18:55, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
          • Does it look like a joke? The deletion tag and this page look pretty real to me. I don't see how this is faked. G.He_(Talk!) 19:03, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
            • Oh, god. So the world is descending into insanity. Oh, well. I suppose deleting the recent changes page won't do anything other than highly hinder admins, allow vandals to overrun this site with ease, and goodness knows what else. Unit 8311 19:06, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
• I think we're starting to take April Fools a little too far. -- SFH 19:14, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
• Why not protect the page from new editors? Then new editors wouldn't be able to damage the page, and at the same time, the benefits it has for the wiki would remain. Hobbes15^{(Tiger Headquarters)}
