2010 Korean Flight of Doom

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Unreferenced and totally speculative article about an event that has yet to happen. Delete.  Blanchardb - Me•MyEars•MyMouth - timed 03:51, 3 April 2010 (UTC)

There are a ton of events on WP that haven't occured yet like say the 2010 World Cup...Once it is disproven then it can be deleted —Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.6.208.212 (talk) 04:16, 3 April 2010 (UTC) — 108.6.208.212 (talk) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

It is satire. Rather than delete it, merge it into the iPad page as an example of pre-release jitters. The massive nature of the shipment means that UPS tracking doesn't work like normal and people are getting anxious. This information belongs as witness to a part of the cultural phenomenon of major product releases. This is a new one though, but one we're likely to see again in the future. It is right along with people waiting outside a store all night. Instead of waiting outside a store, people are waiting at their computers and sharing community via a chat room. This represents a distinct development in this type of thing and should be documented. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.111.88.63 (talk) 04:32, 3 April 2010 (UTC) — 68.111.88.63 (talk) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
 * Delete no sources. if someone can find a source for a notable delay in shipping, add it to the ipad article. this is essentially vandalism, and should be treated as such.Mercurywoodrose (talk) 04:35, 3 April 2010 (UTC)
