Declining speedy deletion. A Google news archives search gives exactly one relevant hit (another hit is from 2001, another hit is French), and given that, I think the article creator is overstating the buzz. None of the refs are from reliable sources. - Dank (push to talk) 21:29, 12 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

G4 Re-creation of salted YouTube Poop and other capitalizations. At least one variation of the title has been through AFD. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Many otters • One hammer • HELP) 21:42, 12 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]- Comment: Please specify where this AFD is please. I have checked half a dozen capitalisations but all were speedy deleted and none was at AFD. There is no other AFD to be found using Special:PrefixIndex or by the search. It has been to DRV for the speedy deletions but never for AFD. It's thus not eligible for G4. Regards SoWhy 21:53, 12 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- My mistake. A7 then as non-notable web content. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Many otters • One hammer • HELP) 21:58, 12 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

- There's a DRV of one of the speedies here. That may be what TPH was thinking of. Deor (talk) 22:01, 12 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Oh yeah, also, the TV.com hit isn't actually from 2001. YouTube didn't even exist in 2001. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Many otters • One hammer • HELP) 22:20, 12 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

- Comment If it survives this AfD, needs to be renamed as Youtube Poop (or similar) - no need for disambiguation. PamD (talk) 21:53, 12 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- The weird name was to get around YouTube Poop and Youtube Poop being salted. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Many otters • One hammer • HELP) 22:25, 12 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Speedy delete and salt (I'm the nom, but just voting to change to "speedy and salt"). I wasn't aware of the multiple DRVs when I declined the speedy; if I had known, I would have agreed that a speedy deletion as G11 was acceptable, but on the other hand, the creator(s) of this article is/are so persistent that I'm glad I brought it to AfD, so we can G4 it if it reappears. - Dank (push to talk) 22:28, 12 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- I'd go with maybe 6-month protection; it's always possible this will be notable in the future. - Dank (push to talk) 03:50, 13 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

- Surely this article could be deleted under A1, A7, G1, and G11. It is just incoherent crap and seems like an advertisement to me. Also, completely unremarkable. Alan16 talk 16:34, 13 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Do not delete: Why delete an article on a valid subject that is relevant and significant!
- Um... relevant and significant to Internet dumbasses != relevant and significant to the general public. JuJube (talk) 16:05, 13 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Speedy
flushdelete with a serving of salt - If two similarily titled (but presumably very similar) articles have been deleted and salted, I can't see this one going anywhere other than down the toilet (sorry). DitzyNizzy (aka Jess)|(talk to me)|(What I've done) 09:24, 13 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

DONT DELETE! Is urbandictionary not reliable? Is wikia.com not reliable? Ajfweb (talk) 17:04, 13 May 2009 (UTC) There are hundreds of thousands of youtube poop videos... I just would like it to be considered as not a "useless, meaningless thing that Youtube people do" and instead as a "valid, popular form of video remix". please, give it a chance! Ajfweb (talk) 17:07, 13 May 2009 (UTC) HEY HEY HEY! Hang on a second!!!! Youtube Poop on many valid encyclopedias and dictionaries on the web (not all of these are that reliable, choose for yourself though):[reply]
