[edit] Luke's Prediction

Luke's Prediction (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Article about a mixed drink. After I put on a prod tag citing Wikipedia:Wikipedia is not for things made up in school one day, the author immediately took down the part of the article that indicated that its subject probably was concocted in a dorm room somewhere [1] and assured readers of the Talk page that the drink was not invented by bored small children, and that it was in fact "becoming quite popular in Malta." Until it actually does become popular in Malta and there are reliable, third-party sources to back up the assertion, its article should be deleted from Wikipedia without prejudice to its eventual recreation should it ever become verifiably notable. [EDIT: Extensive original research on my part earlier thiis afternoon indicates that, despite its apparent non-notability, this drink is quiite good.] --Dynaflow babble 16:39, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete per nom. No sources cited, and I can't find any relevant Google hits. Fails WP:N, WP:V, and probably WP:NFT. EALacey 20:49, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete - while the attempt to disguise the fact is amusing, it is still something made up in a dorm one day. --Haemo 22:05, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete For the time being, as not notable. However, when I can go down the street to my local and order one and not be cut off for the mere suggestion, I would support such an article.--Xnuala (talk)(Review) 03:06, 24 May 2007 (UTC)
I found this website containing the above recipe for a shooter: http://www.cocktailmaking.co.uk/displaycocktail.php/2138-Luke's-Prediction
Can it be a 3rd party proof for its existence? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Flugs (talk • contribs)
  • Not when there's a big, bright link right below the recipe that says, "ADD YOUR COCKTAIL!!!" --Dynaflow babble 21:19, 24 May 2007 (UTC)
Ok i get the point then. I have to search form more supporting evidence then... —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Flugs (talk • contribs).
