Icy Hot Stuntaz

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Non-notable musical group which happens to be an internet meme. Fails WP:MUSIC as a musical group. Fails WP:WEB as an internet meme. Fails WP:V, which is non-negotiable, for having no sources. A previous AfD said keep, but that was a year ago, consensus can change, and all of the keeps were simply "I've heard of it!" which is not an argument to keep. - Chardish 06:51, 12 April 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete, no secondary sources are provided, or that I can find, are available. Seraphimblade Talk to me 08:01, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete, exactly why the word "generally" appears in "Notability is generally permanent". Not to mention that it's not sourced.  Eliminator JR  Talk  08:13, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep. Dallas Morning News article available, plus i recall another coming up in a previous discussion that I can't find anymore.  Absolutely notable, nothing has changed. --badlydrawnjeff talk 11:52, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
 * The link from the Google News search you provided is dead - no article shows up if you click on it. A search from the Dallas Morning News website itself turns up no results. - Chardish 17:14, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
 * It's probably "dead" because of the subscription service. --badlydrawnjeff talk 17:17, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
 * weak keep per the source mentioned by Badlydrawnjeff. Maybe merge to fark.com cliche list, if this is almost entirely a Fark thing (I really have no idea). --W.marsh 14:31, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
 * fact, but this pre-dates Fark from my recollection. --badlydrawnjeff talk 14:38, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete as non notable band. The lack of sources means that nothing in the article can be verified. If some published non trivial sources can be produced, I might be inclined to change my opinion. --  Cy ru s      An dir on   15:38, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete Per nom. GideonF 10:24, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete or merge into fark if that's appropriate, I dunno. This is just a tidbit.  The one source mentioned is from 5 years ago. Seems unlikely to become a sufficiently verifiable subject for an article.  Friday (talk) 01:01, 14 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep these guys were one of the first internet memes. The photo of them and their cars was spreading around in 1996, and far predates fark.  ALKIVAR &trade; &#x2622; 02:43, 17 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment I missed the "first internet memes" criteria in WP:N, even after looking twice. I did see a requirement for multiple nontrivial reliable sources, though. Seraphimblade Talk to me 02:53, 17 April 2007 (UTC)
