Motivational poster

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Doesn't seem to be expandable beyond a dicdef. Only sources are an ep of The Simpsons and an article in the Onion, neither of which really add anything.

 * DELETION... Less is More A good article could be written about this type of poster, which usually has a conversation-starting picture, a word, and some cliche that is supposed to inspire office employees (example "TEAMWORK" followed by "We're all in this together"), and it's still not impossible that that would happen. This article dates from the "Simpsons days" of Wikipedia, when a page frequently had a reference to "The Simpsons" or "Family Guy".  I'd reconsider if someone wants to take a shot at improving the article, but if it hasn't happened in two years, I'm not expecting anything this week. Mandsford (talk) 19:07, 9 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep Time to reconsider, Mandsford: since you left your comment, UncleG has placed tons of obviously reliable sources on the article, making it quite suitable and a fine example of a short Wikipedia article. Notability is now demonstrated.  Nyttend (talk) 20:47, 9 October 2008 (UTC)
