Entirely NN college tradition clearly fails all inclusion standards I can think of. If anything, this deserves a 1 sentence mention in UCLA. αChimp ^laudare 04:25, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

• Delete' as per nom. Hahaha. --Merovingian - Talk 04:26, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per nomination. Some other college students, at least, take all their clothes off before running around campus :). Fabricationary 04:39, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

  Yeah, I've gotta admit that streaking with underwear is pretty lame. αChimp ^laudare 04:44, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

• Merge mention of it at UCLA or circle jerk. It does seem notable enough to mention there. ref Medtopic 06:10, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete or merge Unencyclopedic tone, but has some limited notability. There's nothing here to suggest it merits a page, though. Ace of Sevens 06:45, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
• Merge (one or two sentences) with the UCLA article. Viridae^Talk 09:07, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

• It's Legit When over 25% of the student body at a University jumps on a tradition like this so quickly, the history books need to record it.

Here are some recent articles: Article 1Article 2 Wikipedia has allowed the Texas A&M Midnight Yell, so precedent has been set: Midnight Yell--Jasonmoreno 16:31, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

• Comment. I think that you are misinterpreting our difficulties with the article. Although we wholly believe that this event really does occur, we're questioning its notability for inclusion in this encyclopedia. You might want to check out WP:NN αChimp ^laudare 16:44, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

• Redirect to panty raid: I'm glad that it's a co-ed phenomenon and all that, and hooray for gender equality, but this is a local phenomenon at only one U. On the other hand, this is a probable euphemism and mistyping for the panty raid. Geogre 19:43, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. The "history books" (even a history of ULCA) will most likely not record this phenomenon. Regardless, it's not notable enough to need a whole article here. Merge with UCLA if you must. Geoffrey Spear 20:06, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, but only because the included pictures feature no female coeds, dammit. (Yes, that's sarcasm. Delete.) VoiceOfReason 23:45, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, non-notable and unverifiable phenomenon. --Coredesat talk. ^_^ 00:40, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
• Keep It or Merge, The Naked Guys deserve to be recognized as the genesis of the current UCLA tradition. At the very least, they should be included with the Undie Run information. Bruinbowler 01:30, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

  This comment is the user's first edit. --Merovingian - Talk 01:38, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

• Delete. Verifiable but wholly unnotable student hijinks. -- GWO
