China-Thailand meme war

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

I don't think the subject warrants a stand-alone article. It was a Twitter drama which lasted a couple of days, and was briefly covered by the International news media, but I don't see indication that this single event is likely to generate WP:LASTING effects or be subject to WP:CONTINUEDCOVERAGE. At most a few sentences at China–Thailand relations should suffice. Paul_012 (talk) 11:48, 20 April 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete with no prejudice towards including a very truncated account in China-Thailand relations per nom, since it generated just enough tension for officials to respond. Otherwise WP:NOTNEWS is clearly in play here, and we can always recreate it in the future if any great intellects point to this meme war as a turning point in whatever history Kingoflettuce (talk) 17:01, 20 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete - In context, this event has had little to no meaning in the grand scheme of foreign relations between the two nations. I'm not really sure what to say other than that. This is a minor bit of trivia for those who follow the history of meme culture, and really deletion is the right call for sure. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 17:55, 20 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete as per above and WP:SUSTAINED. dibbydib (T ･ C) 23:17, 20 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete - The article possibly contains original research, as none of the sources mention the meme war, instead, they just mention the memes. Also, it doesn't pass WP:NOTNEWS. 🌺Kori🌺  - ( @ ) 17:26, 22 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete - Insignificant subject. China–Thailand relations can make mention of the issue if there is anything really important. Tessaracter (talk) 15:16, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete - This is not a suitable topic for a stand alone article. - MA Javadi (talk) 21:10, 25 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete - per nom. Some details can be included in China-Thailand relations article. — Emperork (talk) 09:16, 26 April 2020 (UTC)
