 * Keep Not a hoax, and is notable as it is about a day about Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers that was passed in Wisconsin Legislature to be celebrated across Wisconsin. Plus it is a stub article which backs up its notability firmly with 5 strong references including USA Today, NFL.com, ESPN, etc. Soulboost (talk) 20:32, 10 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep as per SoulboostFirst4Uppingham (talk) 21:21, 10 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Struck per Articles for deletion/Birmingham Blue Coat School. Uncle G (talk) 15:02, 11 May 2012 (UTC)


 * Delete as non-notable. State legislatures pass "X Day" resolutions all the time. At best, this should be a section in the Aaron Rogers article. &mdash;Al E.(talk) 15:28, 11 May 2012 (UTC)

 * Note Non-notable? That must be the reason why a google search will bring up several number of pages filled with sources, news sites, references, etc. to prove this day's notability. As for the other "X-day" that the legislature passes, if they are able to have several google search pages like Aaron Rodgers Day, then they should be able to warrant an article as well. Again, this article should be kept. Soulboost (talk) 20:25, 11 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete I'm willing to believe this isn't a hoax. That said, it's a local/regional issue at best and not suitable for its own article.  No one outside of the Packer Fans cares, I would gather.  Would be good to mention in the article on the player tho.--Paul McDonald (talk) 00:08, 12 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Merge this is definitely not a hoax. It's all over the news in Wisconsin that 12/12/12 has been declared his day in Wisconsin (since he wears jersey #12). However, I'm not convinced by either argument. While it meets GNC, it's a minor local (subnational) news that could easily be incorporated in Rodgers' article.  Royal broil  01:34, 14 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Merge to Aaron Rodgers. The article is short and well-sourced, and wouldn't make the Aaron Rodgers article much longer. Northamerica1000(talk) 02:56, 14 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Merge. If, hypothetically, the subject were able to satisfy the notability standards of WP:GNG, WP:NSPORTS or WP:EVENT, there still would not be enough meaningful content to justify a stand-alone Wikipedia article.  This "day" merits one or two sentences in Wikipedia article about the subject athlete&mdash;no more.  Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 18:28, 14 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Merge and redirect to Aaron Rodgers, per Dirtlawyer1. cmadler (talk) 13:50, 15 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Merge and redirect to Aaron Rodgers. This is unliklely to have enduring notablility per WP:NOTNEWSPAPER, bit it can be WP:PRESERVED in the honoree's article.—Bagumba (talk) 17:11, 16 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Merge as per the above. Surely there's some precedent for similar celebrations being mentioned in the honoree's article. UltraExactZZ Said~ Did 15:23, 17 May 2012 (UTC)
