75:(challenge to the challenge to the response to the challenge of the deletion) With the exception of the first sentence (which should have been trimmed to 'It is a Viennese coffeehouse'), the article was nothing more than random musings about various things related to the coffeehouse and some advice about how to avoid a tip. An encyclopedia is a collection of knowledge in a factual, organised fashion. The musings in the article are neither factual, nor verifiable, nor relevant. Furthermore, the article suffered from a lack of context (Knowledge (XXG):Criteria for speedy deletion#Articles reason 1). Ingoolemo talk 09:09, 1 December 2005 (UTC)
82:(response to the challenge to the challenge to the response to the challenge of the deletion) Knowledge (XXG)'s definition for "encyclopedia" includes "...The encyclopedia as we recognize it today developed in the 18th century from the dictionary. A dictionary is primarily focused on words and their definition, and typically provides limited information, analysis or background for the word defined. Hence, while it may offer a definition, it may leave the reader still lacking in understanding the meaning or import of a term, and how the term relates to a broader field of knowledge.

English-speaking world. Always meticulously served, with a small spoon, a small glass of water, sugar, and a napkin, on a small metal tray, scratched and worn, but still dignant, elegant. You could stay as long as you liked, or at least as long as you could tolerate the universal whithering scorn of the waiter. He didn't care if you wanted to stay or not. Or wanted a dessert or not. Tip the guy more than 2%, and he'd snubb you, you'd clearly overplayed your hand as a corrupt capitalist
American, who thought you could buy him off, with mere money. Ha. You pathetic foreigner worm!

man, almost bald, shaking his fist dramatically at the ceiling, the sky beyond, sunken face of a dissappointed angel - Onkel Karl? And her, the young cute one, tight-stylishly dressed, in black, with dominatrix boots, leaning into the table, towards the disaffected slouch of a youth, making her point, and then tapping hard at a cigarette - your cousin Andrea? Or one of her friends?

If you have an alternative entry, or would like to work with me to create an appropriate entry for the Cafe Pruckl, I would enjoy that. From your archives, you have extensive experience with wikipedia. I was surprised and delighted to find a gap that I could fill, in wikipedia, a resource that I use

A most classic
Viennese KaffeeHaus. All are equally snubbed. The "Herald Tribune" is racked up on the stand of free newspapers, but sometimes you have to wait a few hours for it. In the days before internet, this was the best way of tracking, for the price of a "Grosse Schwarze", the ongoings of the

3-My musings are both verifiable and relevant. They discuss the (admittedly) subjective art of having an appropriate culturally immersive experience of this cafe. That's much more relevant than simply announcing 'It is a

So here's the plan. Stay there, wait him out. Pretend to peruse the Kronen

1-I never discussed avoiding a tip. I gave information on how to give an appropriate tip. I have spent hundreds of hours at this cafe, over the last 15 years. I have friends and relatives who have been visiting this cafe for decades. The tipping code in Vienna ranges around 2%. Tipping more is

Almost, but not quite. Wait long enough, and surely someone will come. Until then watch, float and drift in a sweet caffeinated haze of
Viennamnesia. And whatever you do, show some respect. Don't tip any more than 2%...
