The Real Robert Hamburger

I was able to locate a 2002 NPR interview I heard about the site and its creator (I added it as a link at the bottom) and they do call him Robert Hamburger. Bobak 23:59, 13 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Clan advertising

I removed a sentence that in my opinion only served as advertisement for a CounterStrike Source clan. I take it such self advertising is not wanted? Mystman666 19:13, 17 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

"Book Reviews" Section

Is this really necessary? It's all from different POV's, and it doesn't seem to add anything useful to the article. I'm thinking about simply removing that entire section: what do you think? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.34.32.252 (talk • contribs) 18:33, 17 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I fully agree. If someone wants a book review, they can find it on amazon; descriptions belong in encyclopedias, not review, and we already have an excellent description. I am taking action to remove the reviews section presently, and if anyone disagrees feel free to revert, but please justify your actions here. Shaggorama 12:35, 8 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

The Real Ultimate Power book

Someone should write some more on the book. It has a more serious undertone than the website. --✈ James C. 08:28, 2005 Mar 1 (UTC)

Internet Phenom

If it's an Internet phenomenon, it needs to talk about the parodies in the article. I just created two last week and I think the parody has almost over taken the original in popularity. I won't edit here because I don't want to promote my own sites/views on Wikipedia. --JoeHenzi 16:08, 29 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Might well be popular, but I've never seen it. Can you provide a link on the talk page? (Links to the Alexa ratings for the two sites would also be helpful.) --L33tminion | (talk) 01:50, Apr 15, 2005 (UTC)

Removed sentence

"It surprisingly is the 5,349 highest rated book, which is a relatively good accomplishment in itself."

"Surprisingly" and "relatively good accomplishment" is too subjective, not NPOV. This statistic is fine if it can be sourced, and if the article indicates by what criteria the book is ranked (is it the 5349th best selling book by that publisher? On Amazon? In the world? etc.) --L33tminion | (talk) 01:49, Apr 15, 2005 (UTC)

That is almost certainly the Amazon rank. As of 01:35, 2 November 2005 (UTC), the novel is ranked 3775 on Amazon (yes, I know...) --Maru (talk) Contribs 01:35, 2 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion

Somebody wanted to DELETE this page?!!! The fact that there is an encyclopedia entry for 'real ultimate power' attests to the true awesomeness of wikipedia. And I am being totally serious here, not sarcastic. --Ericcjensen 05:36, 22 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I hereby give you dominion over all totally sweet Wikipedia entries. Go forth and flip out on vandals! --maru (talk) contribs 06:25, 13 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

When?

When was Real Ultimate Power first posted? I know it's been up for years, but this article doesn't say how many. -GTBacchus^(talk) 06:01, 30 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

At least before the year 2000, couldn't tell you exactly though --BHC 08:19, 13 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It was posted up late 2001, and that's a fact. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.209.160.243 (talk • contribs) 18:17, 12 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

If I'm not mistaken, it was first posted onto a student webspace type page on a Stanford server somewhere between 1999-2001. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 206.174.12.8 (talk) 03:35, 3 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It was UCLA. Mike R (talk) 22:01, 7 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Adding a sentence

Is there any use to adding that the "no" link on the home page goes to Oprah's site? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.78.76.230 (talk • contribs) 00:01, 21 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Jumping to conclusions

just because a character says "totally sweet" in a FF game doesn't make it a reference, it could just as easily be a reference to napoleon dynamite or maybe, just maybe, its just a common phrase? or is the whole sentence almost exactly the same as one on the site? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.87.5.230 (talk) 11:41, 15 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It's almost the exact same sentence. The one on the website says "My name is Robert and I can't stop thinking about ninjas. These guys are cool; and by cool, I mean totally sweet.". McJeff (talk) 20:55, 22 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Nintendo Power reference

Uhm, Ninjas Vs Pirates is an internet phenom(enon?). It doesn't specifically reference Real Ultimate Power. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.14.190.240 (talk) 03:58, 13 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

"Real Ultimate Power's secret"?

This section's title is arbitrary and unrelated to the section's information. The section isn't even necessary, it could easily be integrated into one of the other sections. 12.19.152.102 (talk) 03:10, 22 May 2008 (UTC)Dylan[reply]

Blacklisted Links Found on the Main Page

Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted. Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia. This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link. If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting. If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page. If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request it's removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta. When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags. The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true. Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.

Below is a list of links that were found on the main page:
