[edit] Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny

Deleted here, redirected to Neil Cicierega at The Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny and elsewhere, redirect endorsed by WP:DRV, but the article is back again. Maybe it's notable by now (after three months "out there") but maybe it's not. Either way this seems to me to need an AfD decision to avoid being speedied as a re-creation of previously deleted content. My personal view is that individual Flash movies are not notable except in extraordinary circumstances, but there you go. I'm also just the teensiest bit fed up with content being endlessly re-created until eventually it gets kept; for some reason this content is almost always related to some internet fad or aparent neologism. Yet more proof, in my mind, that we should not even try to document anything until at least a year after it happens, to allow a proper perspective to develop.

  • Keep definitely notable, it has been mentioned in different venues and was the number one video (and is still high on the list) on Newgrounds. Pegasus1138Talk | Contribs | Email ---- 09:52, 5 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete per nom, unless convincing links to mentions in notable outside sources are provided. Sandstein 10:37, 5 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep. Notable song and animation. --Billpg 16:18, 5 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep. Quite notable by now. If it is to be deleted, though, then I would suggest reinstating the Lemon Demon article (which is currently a redirect to Neil Cicierega) and having this material be a section thereof. --AdamAtlas 22:49, 5 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep per Iceberk3k. --Rory096 04:51, 6 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete Internet Fad. --Mmx1 06:34, 6 March 2006 (UTC)
    • Comment. How is that a valid reason for deletion? --Rory096 19:56, 6 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep Notable song, animation, and is well known. JONJONAUG 19:58, 6 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep I believe that it should stay on because of it's impact. It is well known online, hence it should keep its article. --Shaoken 06:12, 7 March 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete This item is not really worth mentioning as of yet. --Chris Buckey 10:04, 7 March (GMT)
  • Keep This item is definitely a notable flash cartoon and song on the internet, the lyrics are well-known, as well as the response to the song. Still at the top of Newgrounds Top 50 Flash Cartoons. --User: Matt Neuteboom 9:26, 6 March (EST)

  • Keep "more than one million" views on Newgrounds, 640 000 views on Weebl's Stuff, #7 on Newgrounds Top 50. Big following. 96T 14:48, 7 March 2006 (UTC)
And as for reliable sources, per WP:RS? Just zis Guy you know? 23:36, 9 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep notable internet memes. --badlydrawnjeff (WP:MEME?) 00:28, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep Noteable song, noteable flash animation - the article just needs a lot of help.--Naha|(talk) 07:29, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep exactly what Naha^^ said Jakemcmahon 18:41, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep Anyone who can achive this much internet fandom deserves noteriety and is therefore noteworthy Vcelloho 21:29, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
  • That's why we have an article on him. But that does not make every single thing he does independently notable. Just zis Guy you know? 23:36, 9 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Merge somehow to Neil Cicierega, keep as much as possible. The guy is way talented, I imagine that one day TUSOUD will be viewed as his vanguard work, and then we might have an article on the various critical deconstructions of it. Or not... KWH 07:00, 9 March 2006 (UTC)
