There are plenty of other pastas that are so much better and should be getting the fame that Jeff does, such as "Russian Sleep Experiment", "Normal Porn for Normal People", "The Cell Phone Game", and so many more. I don't think the pasta itself is the reason it's so popular. The image (File:Jeff the Killer.jpg) came well before the pasta, I believe. (Although the pasta does seem to appeal to a certain large demographic of this wiki, what with the "teenage revenge fantasy" aspect of the story.)

That said, I don't think deleting it would be the best idea. We all know how well that turned out the last time we did it. Perhaps we could expand the page to include more than just the story (i.e. actual information and history behind the Jeff the Killer/"Go to Sleep" phenomenon).

I suppose that would work, to provide a background to the story. And I guess I under-estimated the fan reaction, though in hindsight I should have considered it.
