Is this really notable? The entire thing is original research. It's one reference at this time doesn't even find any reference. It goes to a dictionary site's main page and then I searched in there for "first post" and didn't find anything. William Ortiz 14:45, 27 October 2007 (UTC)
 * First delete! Unsourced, Wikipedia is not a dictionary Will (talk) 15:42, 27 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. No prejudice against recreation in the event of reliable sources, but is this really something thats going to get mainstream media attention? I think not. THE KING 17:35, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

 * Keep It could use more sources, but it is a valid internet phenomenon, on popular discussion group sites such as SlashDot, etc, at least amongst the 'geek' crowd. The article does trace the concept back to BBS's in the 80s-early 90's.  Even Will's possibly tounge-in-cheek "First delete!" three lines above does not have context without understanding the concept of First post  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Cander0000 (talk • contribs) 22:25, 27 October 2007 (UTC)
 * It's not particularly a hard concept. Will (talk) 19:09, 28 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment. This should be sourceable.  As one of the most well-known internet phenomena, going as far back as the early days of Usenet, the Jargon File should have entries on this.  Deleting this article without searching for sources first would be an act of profound laziness. — Da rk •S hik ari [T] 01:03, 28 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Weak Delete an actuale phenomenon, but is everything that happens on the Net notable? JJL 15:03, 28 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per others. Questionable notability at best, mostly OR. Doctorfluffy 05:50, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
