I feel that this page should be deleted because the name of it appears to be incomplete (there's clearly some text before the first letter that is cut off) and even the letters we can make out are unclear, we don't know for sure that the first three letters are "CAU". Therefore, I feel that since we can't be sure on the name of this, the page should be deleted. <span style="font-family:Algerian">[[User:Solar Dragon|<span style="color:green">The</span>]] [[User talk:Solar Dragon|<span style="color:red">Solar</span>]] [[Special:Contributions/Solar Dragon|<span style="color:blue">Dragon</span>]]</span> 14:27, May 9, 2026 (EDT)

I agree that the article should be deleted. However, I suspect that there have been enough ''Peanuts'' references on the show to justify a ''Peanuts'' references article. If that is indeed the case, then the Schroeder look-a-like should definitely be included in it. -- [[User:Mythigator|Mythigator]] 13:23, 16 February 2013 (EST)

Delete tag was placed on the page because he looks more like Shakespeare. On further inspection, I agree with this.

It's Shakespeare for sure ...
 
#They've got a literary theme going with the characters making cameos ... Snape, Sherlock and Winston Churchill (who was an accomplished author in addition to serving as Prime Minister). Shakespeare fits right in with that theme, where Fawkes doesn't.
 
#The skull is a reference to the "Alas, poor Yorick" scene from ''Hamlet'', which is one of the best-known (but also, alas, most often misquoted) scenes from Shakespeare's plays.
 
#The plotline of ''Love Actually'' (which ''Love, Indubitably'' parodies) comes off like one of Shakespeare's romantic comedies, which have the recurring motif of everyone getting paired off in the end. (If they were getting blown up, you could make a case for the man being Fawkes. :-P)
 
Plus, as Solar said, the man looks a lot more like Shakespeare than he does Fawkes. The Fawkes article should be deleted and its information incorporated (where appropriate) into the [[William Shakespeare]] article. -- [[User:Mythigator|Mythigator]] 13:18, 16 February 2013 (EST)

Eh... Oops. Sorry, I can't really tell the difference in cartoon form. I got [[Winston Churchill]] and [[Alfred Hitchcock]] mixed up as well, because I am bloody hopeless. Also, thank you to Mythigator for knowing a lot of references. :D --[[User:Frederick|<big><font color="purple">Fred</font></big>]] (<small>[[User talk:Frederick|<font color="green">Talk</font>]]</small> '''•''' <small>[[Special:Contributions/Frederick|<font color="red">Contribs.</font>]]</small> '''•''' <small>[[Special:Editcount/Frederick|<font color="orange">Editcount</font>]]</small>) 16:50, 16 February 2013 (EST)

Pages for deletion (PfD) is where editors discuss whether a page should be deleted. Articles listed are normally discussed for at least five days after which the deletion process proceeds based on community consensus. Then the page may be kept, merged or redirected, moved to another title or deleted.

Also do not forget to mark the page to be deleted with {{Delete}} on the top.

Nominations[edit]

Cauldron (location)[edit]

I feel that this page should be deleted because the name of it appears to be incomplete (there's clearly some text before the first letter that is cut off) and even the letters we can make out are unclear, we don't know for sure that the first three letters are "CAU". Therefore, I feel that since we can't be sure on the name of this, the page should be deleted. The Solar Dragon 14:27, May 9, 2026 (EDT)

Agree. Couldn't find any real record store in which the name "Cauldron" could be based on. --Simpsons88 (Talk ☎️) 15:00, May 9, 2026 (EDT)

Eats[edit]

Name is generic so against notability policy. The Solar Dragon 18:02, May 9, 2026 (EDT)

Itchy Lot, Scratchy Lot, and Stationnement Itchy[edit]

These are just parking lots for the theme parks, I don't feel that they need articles to themselves, especially when so little can be said for them. The Solar Dragon 20:01, May 9, 2026 (EDT)

Itchy & Scratchy Land Cutlery[edit]

Actual name of the shop is just "Cutlery", so against notability policy. The Solar Dragon 20:07, May 9, 2026 (EDT)

Itchy & Scratchy Land Candy and Itchy & Scratchy Land Toys[edit]

Same reason as Cutlery above. The Solar Dragon 09:04, May 11, 2026 (EDT)
