Appears to be a game/hunt of some sort hosted in a user's subpages. Wikipedia is not the host for personal games. I see no tangible benefit to Wikipedia to host these for the user. This MFD covers the main page for the game and the 5 subpages of the game. Metros232 15:18, 8 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Note from nominator This is not related to the holiday that is today (Easter) in any way. These pages relate to easter as in easter eggs (virtual)--hidden gems in movies or video games. This is not an easter egg hunt like with bunnies and candy, it's a "find the hidden things within my subpages" game. Metros232 03:16, 9 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Doing fun stuff on holidays adds to interpersonal kindred spirit and doesn't detract from the Encyclopedia. In fact, it can benefit the project by fostering good faith and human feeling between users. Remember, we aren't robots. Nardman1 15:47, 8 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment on holidays? This page was created in May of 2006. It's easter egg as in like hidden things in movies and video games, not easter eggs as in bunny rabbits. Metros232 01:09, 9 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I don't know if my vote counts but.. My easter egg hunt is actually a helpful way to teach people how Wikipedia works. Someone with little knowledge could learn about adding comments, image pages (how they get linked), etc. I didn't know it would disturb anyone. And by the way, I did create it for this Easter.

Oh, and thanks to the people that voted to keep it. Dom thedude 0 0 1 04:01, 9 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Unlike the WP:FUN games this one actually takes skill in knowing wikisyntax, and can teach new users as well. –Pomte 14:48, 9 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete I am having a difficult time seeing how this is related to the project, the guiding principle here would be WP:NOT and WP:USER. Thanks, Navou ^banter 20:40, 9 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep a game intended to help new users. Save it. - ElbridgeGerry t c block 01:03, 10 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Harmless, and may actually be useful (per Pomte's comments above). Walton ^{Vivat Regina!} 19:32, 10 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Harmless and users does contribute. ➪HiDrNick! 21:14, 10 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. It's harmless, I like it, and there's other unencyclopedic content out there other than this one that can be deleted.--WaltCip 12:59, 11 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Strong Keep Good editor, page is not harmful. Keep. WikiMan53 (talk) (click here) make a sig! 15:13, 11 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
