[edit] Blogtipping

A meme, created on April 26, 2006. Fails WP:MEME. Delete. --Hetar 06:40, 3 May 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete - less than 30 unique google hits, with each more irrelevant than the last. Wickethewok 06:41, 3 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep - 15 posts tagged "blogtipping" in Technorati and counting. If you delete this now, I understand. But maybe by this time next month, if it is clear that many people are interested in my meme, it would be more feasible to keep it. --easton_ellsworth 06:44, 3 May 2006 (UTC)
    • Comment - if you can list all of the people who have heard of your little meme, it is certainly non-notable and should be deleted with extreme prejudice towards future recreation. Wickethewok 07:51, 3 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete vanity neologism. --Eivindt@c 11:01, 3 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete Yet another person trying to use wikipedia to spread his meme. A Wiki entry should be created only after something is notable, not a vehicle to gain notoriety. --Bachrach44 14:23, 3 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete Sorry. I thought it was already notable, and I didn't want to create this article primarily for notoriety - I simply wanted to clarify the rules of blogtipping for future blogtippers' sakes. Your comments have taught me better. I'll take this as an initiating lesson on the Wikipedia article creation process and won't try to create this article again. If someone else comes along after the meme becomes notable as per Wikipedia's criteria and creates the article - say, after a year and thousands of participants - I hope it stays. I apologize for my naivete and thank you all for upholding the standards of this awesome resource. --easton_ellsworth 16:04, 3 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete per Bachrach44. Stifle (talk) 00:21, 6 May 2006 (UTC)
