Deleted articles with freaky titles
Strange titles are rarely added to Wikipedia under the guise of real encyclopedia articles. Occasionally Wikipedians lose their mind (especially on April Fool's Day) and if their posts are good they wind up here. Silliness can come in the form of creativity, insanity, or just boredom. As with BJAODN, often it seems a shame to delete the best of this humor which has been submitted to us under the GFDL.
Unlike BJAODN, however, some of these article names were made for good reasons, on real topics that the writers thought might be useful for wikipedia. That doesn't always mean that - out of context - the title will be any the less ridiculous-sounding.
If you find an article with a strange title up for deletion at WP:AFD, consider this page. If you do add it to the list, simply put it in its correct alphabetical place. Please don't link it - it'll only encourage them. With any luck it should be a redlink anyway, although one or two of those listed now act as redirects to more sensible titles.
As to this page's title, consider it a mild addition to the collection of "freaky" titles - the real reason for it was just so that it abbreviates to DAFT. Bewildering titles, bizarre titles, and surreal titles - all are equally fair game.

Notes for adding titles to this page[edit]
- A small note of explanation is OK, but please do not sign it - this isn't a talk page.
- This is for articles that really existed on Wikipedia which have been deleted -- provide proof of the deletion if you can, generally in the form of an XFD discussion page (the debates of which are often quite humorous themselves) or deletion log entry (for articles deleted prior to December 2004, see also the Wikipedia:Deletion log or Wikipedia:Old deletion log).
- DO NOT LINK ARTICLE TITLES!
