00ber (Pokémon)

Nothing about this term really pertains to Pokémon. Googling turns up several thousand hits, but most of them are Wikipedia and mirrors, and the others have nothing to do with Pokémon. In conclusion, this is an inaccurately portrayed non-notable term, better suited for UrbanDictionary or somesuch. Delete. Andre (talk) 13:51, Oct 19, 2004 (UTC)

• Delete - concur. The idea strikes of POV, as well. Ian Pugh 18:23, 19 Oct 2004 (UTC)
• As I asked on the Talk page several days ago, why is this disambiguated at all? Delete. RickK 21:02, Oct 19, 2004 (UTC)
• Actually, eleminating "wikipedia" and a peice of text from the article still gives 960 pokémon hits[1] out of 2290 hits total[2], so it is often a pokémon-specific term, but I don't think the word is notable enough in any context to have an entry.

• Can't we pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeze delete everything Pokémon-related? *sigh* Bearcat 06:21, 23 Oct 2004 (UTC)
  • I second that 132.205.15.4 07:07, 23 Oct 2004 (UTC)
    • I third, fourth and fifth that. Aecis 16:26, 24 Oct 2004 (UTC)
      • While I'm annoyed when people ask to delete everything Pokemon related, I dont care if this page gets deleted or not. No vote. WhisperToMe 04:20, 25 Oct 2004 (UTC)
  • No, we really can't. Like it or not, Pokemon was a huge pop culture phenominon (and still is with young kids) deleting all pokemon related articles would be POV. Oh and by the way. Delete--66.30.53.137 23:43, 23 Oct 2004 (UTC)
    • I grok that. I'm not arguing that Pokémon itself should be deleted. I just don't think we need a separate entry for every individual pokémon and every last little piece of pokémon-related trivia. Bearcat 21:32, 24 Oct 2004 (UTC)
      • Amen, amen. All fandoms with massive amounts of minor information/characters should be merged into single articles such as List of Pokemon 000-050 Star Trek characters (minor) Star Wars ships (and so on, excepting major things such as Pikachu or Kirk or the Millenium Falcon) But I suppose that's a discussion for another time.

• delete, This is entirely non-specific to any one show/game. Even the best of gamers will call soemthing uber at some point (: —siroχo 22:32, Oct 23, 2004 (UTC)
• Agree with Siroxo - I've heard people call certain celebrities uber. Non-specific to the nth degree. Delete. PMC 01:22, 25 Oct 2004 (UTC)
• D Being a p00r st00dent, I'd agree it's t00 00ber-00ver-00sed in n00merous c00ntexts. Chris 02:23, 25 Oct 2004 (UTC)
