[edit] Sugarelly
This is an article I created myself last summer, although I do not actually want the article deleted as such, so do not attempt to speedily delete the article. I would, however, like to generate discussion about whether it is a valid topic for inclusion. Before commenting to keep, delete or something else, read the article itself, its talk page, and try the Google test. The term returns quite a few Google hits independent of Wikipedia, although it's difficult to say how many of these would be reliable sources - most are peronal websites. Before defaulting to delete, read the goals of Wikipedia:WikiProject Countering systematic bias - sugarelly is a historical invention, and will doubtless show up less in Google than recent trends. I think this article would fit in fine to merge with an article on early twentieth century children's culture in Scotland or something less specific. Also, it was notable as the primary subject of an Oor Wullie cartoon from the 1940s.-h i s s p a c e r e s e a r c h 13:31, 11 April 2007 (UTC)
