Opposite Week

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Seems to be an game made up in one day, with no chance of gaining a reliable source. -- Σ  talk contribs   05:13, 30 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete - Clearly WP:FAILN because WP:NRVE. Further, circumstances of articles creation lead me to suspect WP:SPIP, given the fact that the name of the creator of this game and name of the account that created the article are the same. To be honest, WP:SPEEDY is probably appropriate under WP:G11. Sailing to Byzantium (talk) 07:20, 30 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete slowly. Speedy deletion is not appropriate here because this is not spamming. While it is possibly intended to promote this person's idea, the language is such that it is trying to be an encyclopaedia article - probably in order to be able to say to others that "this is notable/significant/whatever because it has a Wikipedia article". I remember playing games like this as a kid, and so developmental psychologists might have studied something like this. If they have, then we can write an encyclopaedia article about such research, but it wont be this article and it wont be at this title, which is afaict not what any reliable sources have used to write anything about the possibly notable topic.

 * Delete There's already an article on Opposite Day which is pretty much identical to the letter, just with a list of pop-culture references added. Might be worth a passing mention on that page if anything. BulbaThor (talk) 16:40, 30 July 2011 (UTC)
