  • delete. (1) its too soon to say if its just a fad (even the article says so) (2)caps lock is and alwyas has been consider shouting, and thus rude and so is unlikely to gain widespread support. (3) its non-notable (nothing relevant on a quick google) (4) it might be considered a neologism (5) this article seems to me to be desgined to propogate the fad (6) its completely pointless. need I go on?

  • Delete. Sorry, it's Saturday where I am. --Calton 01:22, 29 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. I recall a few months back we had International Caps Lock Day or something. I believe it was deleted after some partisan debate. This is just more of the same. Now how about Type In Orange Tuesday? -R. fiend 02:07, 29 Jan 2005 (UTC)

  • Delete - Apart from anything else it's a bad idea. As this site is on the WWW we could have a lot of confusion. Different time zones may lead some people to be on CAPS LOCK FRIDAY whilst others are on Strikethrough Saturday. Due to Peer Pressure and not wanting to feel odd one out some users may feel obliged to use CAPS LOCK FRIDAY even though, where they live, it is Strikethrough. It is a sure cause of unrest and elitism.... --Marcus22 13:36, 2 Feb 2005 (UTC)

  • Delete. Non-notable "tradition" on messageboards at most a year old. I'm pretty sure this was an attempt by some on 4chan's /b/ board to supplant "furry friday" (where /b/tards—don't give me that look, that's what they call themselves—alternate between posting furry porn and complaining about furries). — Gwalla | Talk 23:26, 2 Feb 2005 (UTC)
    • It died a while ago, I think. Delete on wiki wednesday? humblefool® 00:50, 3 Feb 2005 (UTC)
