[edit] Man Laws
AfDs for this article:
Not notable series of US only adverts Darrenhusted (talk) 10:25, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
- Keep It seems like somebody put a lot of work into this article, and the cultural references show notability. I'm not in the US so I can't judge the notability myself, but I don't think that being US-only makes it non-notable.--Angelastic (talk) 12:39, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
- Putting a lot of work into an article is not a reason to keep it.Darrenhusted (talk)
- Fair enough. I'll stick with keep though, because the pop culture references seem to establish notability. It looks as though some of these 'man laws' are fairly well-known to the general public and coming into general use, though it would be nice to see some references for that section. Actually it needs some real references for the rest as well... I clicked on some of the links to imdb profiles and they don't mention that the actors were involved in these commercials.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Angelastic (talk • contribs)
- Then it fails WP:RS and WP:V. As well as being a large chunk of WP:TRIVIA. Darrenhusted (talk) 13:29, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
- Isn't this a surmountable problem? (assuming such reliable sources exist... if they don't, then of course the article should be deleted.) --Angelastic (talk) 13:36, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

- Keep I have added a couple of sources. They were easy to find. The ad campaign itself was notable. Jim Miller (talk) 13:45, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
- Keep. Significant coverage in two separate New York Times articles is enough to clearly demonstrate notability. Scog (talk) 14:43, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
- Weak delete/merge to Miller Lite page. Spell4yr (talk) 05:29, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
- Keep. Someone took a lot of time and effort to make this page. It also provides mucho reference some like I. Also, we may feel it's relevant even if Wikipedia does not. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.160.206.219 (talk) 05:54, 8 June 2008 (UTC)
