* Please do not refactor the discussion into lists or tables of votes, however much you may think that this helps the process. Again, the votes are not the ends in themselves (Misplaced Pages is not a democracy). Both the context and the order of the comments are essential to understanding the intents of contributors, both at the discussion closure and during the discussion. Refactoring actually makes the job of making the decision at the closure of discussion much harder, not easier.

* '''NOTICE TO ADMIN:''' I have re-inserted the so called "death threat" and heartily encourage that ] learn the difference between a statement that all persons voting for deletion should consider themselves formally challenged to a duel which they could refuse only under pain of their emasculating cowardice being known to all of the internet, and a death threat, you DFF.
'''BULLSHIT''' This radio show is created by an independent entity, me (l0de). The gnaa calls in to the show, this is the extent of their participation. All equipment, music, etc is provided by me. Most insults to delete voters are from me, because these people need to unclamp their teeth from their pillows and get on with life. This wikipedia entry was created by a fan of the show, and is a fitting homage to the spirit of the l0de radio hour. Grave repercussions await its deletion. I am personally issuing a challenge to any one voting for delete, I will duel you, to the death, in international waters. If you so strongly wish to have this deleted, you must back up your words with your life, else they shall be considered inconsquential, and those urging its deletion forevermore relegated to the ranks of shunned cowardice.

* '''Strong Keep''' This show is representative of the general malaise of today's Net-enabled youth; contrarianism and shock jock talk to stretch the boundaries of what the media can do; what is offensive/what is entertainment/what is music -- all questions posed by this show, taken as a continuing piece of art.

Both the context and the order of the comments are essential to understanding the intents of contributors, both at the discussion closure and during the discussion. Refactoring actually makes the job of making the decision at the closure of discussion much harder, not easier.

Looks non-notable: it only nets 16 distinct hits on Google. chocolateboy 20:56, 23 Jun 2005 (UTC)

  • for reference purposes the lrh episodes page can be viewed at
    • Try Googling for lrh + l0de instead. 231 results.
  • Note that this is a 'deliberately' misleading figure. I also question the validity of a "need" for the warning below, which seems to be systemically and inherently biased.

Lol stop changing all the votes to keep, these shoe-sniffing waterheads will revert all my choice witticismz. Warning: this radio show is the work of GNAA members who will likely come to its defense. Please watch out for any sock-puppet votes, vandalism and fallacious arguments. Most of the keep votes are from GNAA members who came to vote after a rallying call in their IRC channel. They also seem to be insulting any delete voters.

  • NOTICE TO ADMIN: I have removed a (possibly farcical) death threat to those voting delete. --Scimitar 29 June 2005 20:21 (UTC)
  • NOTICE TO ADMIN: I have re-inserted the so called "death threat" and heartily encourage that Scimitar learn the difference between a statement that all persons voting for deletion should consider themselves formally challenged to a duel which they could refuse only under pain of their emasculating cowardice being known to all of the internet, and a death threat, you DFF.

BULLSHIT This radio show is created by an independent entity, me (l0de). The gnaa calls in to the show, this is the extent of their participation. All equipment, music, etc is provided by me. Most insults to delete voters are from me, because these people need to unclamp their teeth from their pillows and get on with life. This wikipedia entry was created by a fan of the show, and is a fitting homage to the spirit of the l0de radio hour. Grave repercussions await its deletion. I am personally issuing a challenge to any one voting for delete, I will duel you, to the death, in international waters. If you so strongly wish to have this deleted, you must back up your words with your life, else they shall be considered inconsquential, and those urging its deletion forevermore relegated to the ranks of shunned cowardice.

  • STRONG KEEP Come one, why not keep it? l0de rules. Long live GNAA.
  • Keep I know l0de personally, and lolled @ his show many many times. The amount of effort and time put into producing each episode is so great, that alone should require a STRONG KEEP on this article. Not to mention the fact that the article is informative and interesting. --Timecop 13:48, 24 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep. Notable. How do you figure "only 16"? Why are the Turnip Wars notable and not worthy of delete. Ich 07:18, Jun 24, 2005 (UTC)
  • Merge with GNAA. -- grm_wnr Esc 18:06, 24 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Merge with GNAA, though seriously , it's a large text and the person doing the merge might say no. It's quite odd: I was sitting on irc, minding my own business, when suddenly this gentleman from the GNAA came by... Kim Bruning 18:13, 24 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep I think it is unfair to preemptively scream "trolling" on a VFD for an article because it is loosely related to the GNAA article. I also don't think a merge would be appropriate, because the lrh is not produced by them.--TexasDex June 28, 2005 16:57 (UTC)
    • It is produced by a member, although has a far wider appeal than simply people inside the GNAA.
      • Looking at some of the edits it seems I stand corrected. Complaining about trolling was practically inviting them to mess with the voting process.--TexasDex June 28, 2005 16:57 (UTC)
  • Keep, <PERSONAL ATTACK>s. Only <PERSONAL ATTACK>s would dare delete this fine article. Are you a <PERSONAL ATTACK>? GNAA Popeye 21:25, 25 Jun 2005 (UTC)

    16 article edits total for this user. --Scimitar 30 June 2005 20:00 (UTC)
    • So? This user's creation predates the creation of this VfD by months. --Jacj 4 July 2005 10:32 (UTC)
      • Yes, it goes right back to the Vfd for the GNAA. And he votes to save this. What a surprise (it's called a role account; it exists as sort of a longterm sockpuppet, contributing nothing but voting on policy) --Scimitar 4 July 2005 14:43 (UTC)
  • Keep: seems like a lot of the people voting don't seem to "get" the nature of the l0de radio hour. It's independent of the GNAA, and I don't understand why a lot of the delete voters are strongly associating it with them. --Jacj 29 June 2005 03:33 (UTC)
  • Strong Keep Important part of Internets history
  • Strong Keep This show is representative of the general malaise of today's Net-enabled youth; contrarianism and shock jock talk to stretch the boundaries of what the media can do; what is offensive/what is entertainment/what is music -- all questions posed by this show, taken as a continuing piece of art. The GNAA reference could be deleted; they are an occasional particpant as much as any caller. Skip their self-aggrandizing and focus on l0de's artistry.
  • Keep Notable. Also note that amount of Google hits is greatly deflated by poster of this VFD. --Lysol 07:12, Jun 24, 2005 (UTC)

      • How convenient for you. I've made numerous contributions to articles, and it's people like you who constantly pick apart and judge others positive contributions that make Misplaced Pages increasingly more irritating to participate in. --Lysol 19:49, Jun 24, 2005 (UTC)
        • 24 total article edits, and none since January. Incidentally, you haven't editted anything on Misplaced Pages in the week since this post. --Scimitar 30 June 2005 17:04 (UTC)
          • What does that have to do with the validity of a vote? You're really scrambling for something to question my completely honest and legitimate piece of free speech. You should be ashamed of yourselves. --Lysol July 1, 2005 06:53 (UTC)
            • It has nothing to do with free speech, Misplaced Pages isn't a democracy. However, we generally only accept votes from community members; people commited to Misplaced Pages, not one particular article. --Scimitar 4 July 2005 14:43 (UTC)
    Misplaced Pages:Google test. It's not reliable to begin with, and somewhat of a red herring. The number of Google hits do not address the essential questions. JRM · Talk 19:59, 2005 Jun 24 (UTC)

    • Unsigned vote by 64.95.182.163, their second contribution. -- Joolz 17:31, 24 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep - The cries of "trolling" and "sockpuppetry" perhaps eminate more from the fact that the show is loosely-affiliated with the GNAA rather than any particular judgement upon its merits. Despite what the vote count could perhaps be, it is possible to dismiss whatever the powers that be disagree with by simply dismissing the individuals making the statements. The l0de radio hour is a fairly cutting-edge program that stands out within the realm of internet media as both extremely funny, shocking, and suprisingly topical. Despite the potential obscurity of the show, it has exiested as an internet entity for several years and will continue to thrive for quite some time

  • Keep, LRH is definately a notable part of the internet. Anyone voting for its deletion from the self-important Misplaced Pages needs to stop chomping on green logs of butt mud for a second and listen to an episode.

  • STRONG KEEP No good reasons have been presented as to why there shouldn't be an article here. The people wanting to delete this clearly have an anti-gaynigger and anti-trolling agenda.

  • KEEPZ* LRH is the greatest shit ever, I once called and he made fun of Latvia, it was so lol
  • Strong Delete Firstly an independant vanity article about a dime-a-dozen internet radio host. Its inclusion with GNAA is of no significance, as any one can join just by watching a movie and joing slashdot.

    • I don't understand your justification of your vote by reference to "WP:SOCK"...are you saying that the article itself is a sockpuppet and should be deleted for that reason? --Jacj 4 July 2005 10:37 (UTC)
  • Delete Not notable. -- Joolz 17:15, 24 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete'. What the GNAA does or does not have to do with the show is irrelevant, though the sockpuppet votes are not exactly supporting the arguments. In fact, the vote above was made by a GNAA member who was honestly arguing the point (I know this because we were talking on IRC as he made it, and I think you can trust me when I say I wasn't trolled...) However, this show is indeed very obscure. I don't see how this can be verifiable|; if the only source of information on the material is the station itself, or its listeners, we should not be reporting on it. Misplaced Pages is not for advertising, even if articles are written neutrally. When the station does something that makes it notable in the world (and I mean as in newspaper/major website notable, not "I really think this is revolutionary" notable) we can report on it, because then we'll have some sources with which to back up the claims. Misplaced Pages doesn't report on the truth, but on all (notable) views of the truth. This station is simply not big enough to be in any sort of view. JRM · Talk 17:59, 2005 Jun 24 (UTC)
      • I vote that the preceding user be granted leniency on grounds of hereditary idiocy, as this is a SHOW not a station. Note that the l0de radio hour has resulted in two deaths and one attempted suicide to date, which can be independently verified from a number of sources. This is MORE DEATHS PER SHOW than nearly any other radio programme.
        • Just outta curiosity, whose deaths are these? I assume one of them is Klerck's. --Jacj 4 July 2005 10:30 (UTC)
        Yes, you are correct; "station" is a mistake on my part. JRM · Talk 4 July 2005 10:27 (UTC)
    • I'll verify it right now, you DFF. Everything in that article is true, or should be. DEATH 2 CENSORS
  • Delete. We've deleted FM radio shows and presenters, this is nothing special. Hedley 18:01, 24 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. And aren't we due for another bitter, partisan, and rancorous VfD for the GNAA right about now? The sockpuppets seem to be ready, at least. -R. fiend 04:09, 27 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete with extreme prejudice, per the sockpuppets. Failing a delete, merge as suggested above. --Scimitar 29 June 2005 20:14 (UTC)
    • Suggest you "merge" your lips with dog feces

KEEP!

      • ...which shows the value of your suggestions, including what to do with this article ;) --Scimitar 4 July 2005 14:43 (UTC)
  • STRONG KEEP There are a lot of irellevant radio shows on the internets. This is not one of them. While many internet radio shows are dedicated to how sexually appealing an anime character's breasts are or even worse the fact that anonymous sexual intercourse just seems more arousing with a mascot costume on, this show is about relevant and recent news events and presenting them in a way that the aspberger's afflicted community can relate to. A vote for deletion on this item is a vote to marginalize anyone with aspberger's. These are intelligent people with a voice that must be heard.
  • Keep This show rules. Misplaced Pages's mere existence makes me wish I had AIDS. And before anyone comments, yes, I know how many edits I've done.

This is feerie - i'm absolutely not a "Sockpuppet" or whatever ridiculous terminology you simpering pro-censorship Moderator/Dictators use to dismiss the legitimate support this entry has. As I stated before, get the green logs of butt mud out of your mouth for more than 1 second and realize that A) people like the show and that B) its notoriety grants it a space in your bloated blog. Thank you, good night. --Feerie 2 July 2005 05:17 (UTC)
