Cheeky Nandos

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Flash-in-the-pan meme with zero deep third-party coverage; belongs in Urban Dictionary, not in Wikipedia. <b2015 (UTC)

Delete per nom - there's coverage but not particularly notable, we'll see if anyone remembers this next week —Мандичка^YO 😜 22:18, 17 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete – Lightweight coverage on a slow news day or two; doesn't alter the fact Wikipedia's not a slang dictionary—WP:WORDISSUBJECT. –146.199.151.33 (talk) 02:02, 18 May 2015 (UTC)>OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 21:49, 17 May[reply]
Comment: I'm not seeing a huge amount of coverage but I think that this might merit a very brief 1-2 line sentence in the main article for Nando's, perhaps in an "in the media" section. I would imagine that the chain has probably been featured in films or TV shows, so it might merit a media section overall. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 04:05, 18 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment I wouldn't object to that, Tokyogirl, as Nando's is aware of the meme and has commented on it. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 13:50, 18 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete The article is brief and not informative, the concept is not notable: a few very brief news reports with nothing substantial to say. Apart from this meme, there has been quite a bit of British media coverage of Nando's wider cultural significance (which apparently it does have), so this might merit a mention under Nando's but certainly no more.

Merge a few lines into Nandos, Delete the rest. –Davey2010^Talk 21:26, 18 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
"Cheeky nandos" anagrams into "hackneyed, son", which at this point in the life of the meme seems quite apt. Newyorkbrad (talk) 21:46, 20 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
