National Beard Month

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

I took a chainsaw to this article to remove everything I couldn't source (previous version), and was left with 5 words. Gnews search gives just 3 articles, all about a group not yet successful in making this official. Gsearch comes up with a lot of blogs, but very little in the way of reliable sources (and I can't say the source I used is definitely reliable, either). Keep and expand? Redirect somethere? Or shave it off? Fabrictramp |  talk to me  23:40, 2 May 2009 (UTC) 
 * Possibly merge to Movember, which is a similar article, only with mustaches instead of beards. Nikkimaria (talk) 00:38, 3 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Shave it off (delete), I love the pun that Fabrictramp implied, and I don't really see anything supporting this claim or any sources that would help expand the article, so it is best to remove it. Tavix | Talk  23:45, 4 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Interesting to note that the original version of article claimed it was January! Suggests a certain uncertainty. PamD (talk) 07:57, 7 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached. Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, – Juliancolton  &#124; Talk 00:46, 9 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Shave it off per above, no reliable sources about this event. Ten Pound Hammer  and his otters • (Many otters • One hammer • HELP) 17:04, 9 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Shave it off per awesome pun. It's amazing how making a decent joke will garner support for a deletion discussion. Better than canvassing. But, on a serious note, this article should be made gone. Though November makes note to being "No Shave November". Perhaps some sort of mini-merge there? Otherwise just take it down. Greg Tyler (t &bull; c) 19:30, 9 May 2009 (UTC)
