[edit] Ham Day

Ham Day (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

I believe that this holiday is a non-notable subject that is inappropriate for Wikipedia. Should it become notable in the future, this article can be recreated. Marlith 01:52, 30 December 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete. Looks to me like an attempt to give Christmas a non-religious-sounding name. --Blanchardb-Me•MyEars•MyMouth-timed 02:06, 30 December 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment A Google search turned up one legitimate hit, and three blogspot hits. Probably notable, and could be redirected to Turkey Day. —BoL 02:20, 30 December 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete. I originally PRODded this and my belief is that this is the author's protologism which he's attempting to "hoax" into the language. There are no hits in any dictionary I could find for any meaning remotely close to this, including Urban Dictionary. Doesn't meet notability guidelines nor is it verifiable from trusted sources.
