Phan (ship)

Unremarkable "shipping" name, the result of fan speculation. Hardly worth a mention in the subjects' own articles, Definitely not worth its own article. Just doesn't quite fit into a speedy category. -- Non-Dropframe   talk   01:18, 24 August 2015 (UTC)


 * Delete despite astounding quantity of fan-generated material on this. The closest approximation to a source I can find is newmediarockstars.com, a WP:TABLOIDy website which wrote a brief blurb about Howell and Lester's launch of a joint YouTube channel, and included "PHAN" as one of a dozen tags. It's possible that a future RS will take enough notice of the phenomenon for a mention to be added to the subjects' respective articles. FourViolas (talk) 04:02, 24 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete There might be enough to write a somewhat spun-out article about Howell and Lester's joint achievements (radio show, joint gaming channel, upcoming book and tour) that would be less appropriate to main at either one article, but the shipping is not deserving an article now, and at most a redirect to a Reception/Influence section later.  野狼院ひさし  u/t/c 06:01, 24 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete Although their generic presence of them as internet celebrities are quite notable, an article about this so-called closer-than-people-think relationship is unnecessary and very gossipy. A section on Dan and Phil about their internet adventures in general is something that would be more appropriate. Myname is not dave (talk/contribs) 14:22, 24 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete - And I recommend that this matter be closed soon. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 05:38, 25 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete - No encyclopedic value whatsoever.  General Ization  Talk   13:06, 26 August 2015 (UTC)
