Gallon smashing
Contributors to this article might be interested in helping to expand the gallon smashing article, which includes a comparison to the Harlem Shake. -- Another Believer ( Talk ) 18:18, 16 December 2013 (UTC)

Disiz
A change made by 98.119.191.92 credited the "form" and "idea" to Disiz:. I've undone the change because the only source provided was a video of Disiz performing. &mdash; rybec   23:57, 28 December 2013 (UTC)

The video shows Disiz dancing by himself, to his own song Autodance. Toward the end, it shows a group of people doing the same dance. It's several minutes long. I found an interview:

"Auto-Dance est une sacree trouvaille, parce que c'est un truc que tout le monde fait ! [Auto-Dance is a sacred discovery, because it is something that everyone does!]

... C'etait avant le Harlem Shake (rires). [That was before ... the Harlem Shake (laughs).] Contrairement au Harlem Shake, il y a un fond, il y a des paroles qui veulent dire quelque chose. [Unlike the Harlem Shake, there is a background, there are words that mean something.]" &mdash; rybec   20:55, 29 December 2013 (UTC)

Combine with Dance
As the Harlem shake dance has little, and this has quite a bit more information, I feel that they should be combined. It will start out with the dance section, then go to the meme section.

Unless they are completely two different things, of course. — Preceding unsigned comment added by RealWoodCoal (talk • contribs) 13:24, 17 May 2015 (UTC)
 * They are too different things, however, I do think this should be combined with the song.Nikki Lee 1999 (talk) 05:56, 5 October 2015 (UTC)
