Talk:Seaking (Pokémon)

Ok, the protection part is understandable, now that the humble Azumao has fallen victim to becoming a fad... however, that's no reason for 90 percent of the article to be missing. ^_^' someone wanna slide that back in? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.72.21.221 (talk • contribs)

Well...
The phenomenon of "FUCK YEAH SEAKING!" should be represented in this article. Without it, the increased interest is inexplicable. I suggest presenting the phrase in a tasteful way instead of ignoring it. Please take action on this as soon as possible.

Aye, this is an extremely popular meme, on 7chan in particular.--86.142.17.171 19:17, 18 June 2007 (UTC)

THIS IS SEAKING. FUCK YEAH SEAKING!

wikipedia cant break rules 1 and 2
 * WP:NOT, along with WP:V, is non-negotiable. -Jéské ( Blah v^_^v ) 18:10, 23 January 2008 (UTC)

SEAKING IS NOT A MEME! AAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRG! (end of unsigned comment(s))


 * Guess what wikipedia is! Wikipedia is not censored! Anyways, this should be mentioned, however, the text on the pictures should be left out completely. How about a statement such as:
 * Wikipedia is also not a publisher of original thought, not a web directory, not a billboard, etc. -Jéské ( Blah v^_^v ) 18:10, 23 January 2008 (UTC)


 * Seaking became an internet phenomenon when a few enthusiasts photoshopped Seaking onto a picture of destruction or violence as if to imply that Seaking was the cause of said event. Text on these images usually show support for what Seaking is doing.
 * What do guys think? Feel free to copy and edit your own version.--Can Not 20:08, 24 June 2007 (UTC)


 * I don't know. While I don't support willy-nilly censorship, I don't know that "FUCK YEAH" belongs in an article about a children's character. How about Seaking became an internet phenomenon when a few enthusiasts photoshopped Seaking onto a picture of destruction or violence as if to imply that Seaking was the cause of said event. Text on these images usually have a "F*** YEAH SEAKING" [image macro]. desu


 * It shouldn't be censored. It also shouldn't be included, it's not noteworthy enough. Derp isn't included on the Bidoof page. Forced meme is unfunny. Babrook 17:51, 25 June 2007 (UTC)


 * I didn't even know what 4chan was until today.-h i s  s p a c e   r e s e a r c h 19:35, 30 June 2007 (UTC)
 * You're a bit late on the boat. -Jéské ( Blah v^_^v ) 18:10, 23 January 2008 (UTC)

I propose a straw poll: should mention of the Seaking internet Meme be made in this article?


 * FUCK YEAH It's the primary reason people appear to be visiting and editing this article, and enough precedent exists to include it. --NEMT 20:06, 6 July 2007 (UTC)


 * SEAKING, FUCK YEAH! I propose we add an official mention somewhere and get the page semi-protected. Seaking went from forced to accepted, and is more of a meme than Derp. Mysticaloctopus 13:50, 8 July 2007 (UTC)

SEAKING ISN'T A MEME IT NEVER WAS AND NEVER WILL BE
 * FUCK YEAH Would be a useful addition to this article Adjective Noun 21:14, 18 July 2007 (UTC)
 * A search on photobucket shows a wide variety of FUCK YEAH SEAKING pictures, uploaded by different accounts. You can claim FUCK YEAH SEAKING is not/never was/never will be all you want, but the factual evidence is clearly against you. Your efforts are almost as futile as trying to claim the Numa Numa song and Longcat are not memes. Please give up on your ridiculous failpastah and return to 4faggots-chan. Or, come to 7chan and 420chan, where /b/ moved to after /b/day.


 * FUCK YEAH SEAKING! We can cite Wikichan or Lurkmoar's meme pages for proof of its relevance, can't we?
 * No. -Jéské ( Blah v^_^v ) 18:10, 23 January 2008 (UTC)


 * ABSOLUTELY NOT, AND EVEN IF SO, NOT IN THIS ARTICLE. As with SIHULM, this would do far better in List of Internet phenomena. -Jéské ( Blah  v^_^v ) 18:10, 23 January 2008 (UTC)

I'm of the opinion that it should be mentioned, as Seaking is a meme, and i'd say its probably the main reason people view this artical. I also think we should leave it censored as "F*** YEAH", as this is a childs page, and only an idiot couldn't work out what the meme was. Bazarnz 02:42, 25 July 2007 (UTC)

The reason that "I heard u liek mudkips" is not included on the Mudkip page is because of lack of a reliable source for this meme. *chan are anonymous imageboards, and therefore not verifiable sources under the definition. Though "fuck yeah seaking" qualifies as a meme, it does not qualify for inclusion into the article. Also see List_of_internet_phenomena. Obviously there are more than what is included in that list, but only verifiable memes may be added to that entry.

I disagree with you and your unsigned statement. It's obvious that it is a meme, as evidenced by the number of results that "Fuck Yeah Seaking" returns on Google. I'm sure there are articles that have less results. I know that doesn't show a source, but not mentioning anything about it really seems to be leaving something important out. That's the entire reason I came to this page, and I know I'm not the only one. Tithonfury (talk) 02:55, 21 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Google Hits don't mean shit. -Jéské ( Blah v^_^v ) 18:10, 23 January 2008 (UTC)


 * *ahem*; if this is not the definition of a meme, then I do not know what is. And of course, there's the images... --Ihmhi (talk) 00:33, 26 December 2007 (UTC)
 * But can you get proof out of those pages that falls in line with WP:V and WP:RS? -Jéské ( Blah v^_^v ) 18:10, 23 January 2008 (UTC)

The entire reason this thing is locked is because of "FUCK YEA SEAKING!" Every other edit is vandalism. This article is evidence of the meme "FUCK YEA SEAKING!" 75.164.4.34 (talk) 03:32, 28 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Um, where's the sources? Where's the independent sources?  Like SIHULM before it, FYS will be reverted on sight as vandalism barring reliable independent sources (i.e. stuff like Reader's Digest, the New York Times, CNN).  Until those are found, I will revert every instance of FYS and personally add the phrase to Lupin's filter. -Jéské ( Blah  v^_^v ) 18:03, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
