  • Keep far better sources for this topic than the horribly sourced things kept after discussions like Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Okashina_Okashi_-_Strange_Candy. San Francisco Chronicle February 3, 2008 "You'll be singing "America, F- Yeah!" for a week." The Guardian June 30, 2006 "look to the movie Team America and its lusty litany of the country's contributions to the world - "Rock'n'roll, fuck yeah!/The internet, fuck yeah!/Slavery, fuck yeah!" - encased in a flawless parody of gung-ho, Simpson-and- Bruckheimer coke-rock." Statesman Journal February 9, 2006 "I still am bitter that "America, F*** Yeah" from "Team America: World Police" wasn't nominated [for an Oscar] last year." Sydney Morning Herald December 13, 2005 "The 2004 tune, much of which we can't print here, was penned by the creators of SBS's animated South Park series and - give or take a couple of vowels - its chorus goes a little something like this: America, fork yeah! Coming again to save the motherforking day, yeah!" Ottawa Citizen July 29, 2005 "Team America -- specifically, the anthemic theme song that accompanied any military action: America, F--- Yeah! Comin' to save the motherf---ing day, again! Yeah!" So we have reputable sources in the US, UK, Canada, and Australia for this and can actually write a verifiable, neutral article about it. --Dragonfiend (talk)06:06, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

  • Keep Article needs better sourcing but an AfD is not a call for improvement. - Dravecky (talk) 03:13, 24 March 2008 (UTC)

  • keep per Dragonfiend. JoshuaZ (talk) 02:03, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Userfy and put under Category:Wikipedia humor. No assertion in the article that it is independently notable but it is funny. Pocopocopocopoco (talk) 04:22, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Merge to the film article - Does not assert enough notability as is to be its own article. Judgesurreal777 (talk) 19:38, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
