Does anyone know what this is or need it explained? Why is this page devoted solely to a five-year-old joke still here when dozens of useful pages were deleted for having some sarcasm or humor on them? Matt Weiner (talk) 16:06, 13 July 2013 (PDT)

Relatedly: Is there a top-down way to delete stupid or useless categories, so people don't have to drudge through every page linked to that category to delete the category tags? There's a ton of un-updated and conflicting categories listing championship programs, title winners, etc. which ought to be consolidated, lots of stupid nonsense like this, and lots of super-large and completely-unused categories such as "High school players active in 2004". Matt Jackson (am I adding to this talk page right?) (time stamp)
