Speedy deletion nomination of Canadian Ham and Brownies Day
Please refrain from introducing inappropriate pages, such as Canadian Ham and Brownies Day, to Wikipedia. Doing so is not in accordance with our policies. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Ham and Brownies day
You say it's an "obscure internet holiday". In fact it's so obscure that it has left no trace at all on Google or News. Is your source an independent reliable one? If it's just a web-site someone has set up, that's not enough.

If a subject is too obscure, it doesn't get a Wikipedia article. Just being true is not enough - it has to be verifiable and the subject has to be notable. Check out these pages: Good advice in WP:Your first article, and do read WP:NFT too. Regards, JohnCD (talk) 20:01, 27 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Verifiability, which includes: "The threshold for inclusion in Wikipedia is verifiability, not truth&mdash;that is, whether readers are able to check that material added to Wikipedia has already been published by a reliable source, not whether we think it is true."
 * Notability, a requirement to have a Wikipedia article, which is not a matter of opinion but needs to be demonstrated by showing "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject." Significant means more than just listing-type mentions; reliable excludes Myspace, blogs, places where anyone can post anything; independent excludes the subject's own website, affiliated ones and press releases.
