Wikipedia:Deleted articles with freaky titles

Strange titles are rarely added to Wikipedia under the guise of real encyclopedia articles. Occasionally, Wikipedians lose their minds (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 other "silly things", often it seems a shame to delete the best of this humor which has been submitted to us.

Unlike bad jokes and other deleted nonsense, 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.

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.
