Queen bee (subculture)

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Unsourced WP:OR article, if the concept is notable and encyclopedic, it's better the article were started from scratch based on WP:RSes not the article author's observations and opinions. Carlossuarez46 17:43, 21 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep, or at least Merge to a broader article about adolescent cliques. There's a best-selling book by Rosalind Wisemen called Queen Bees and Wannabes that discusses this concept. It's mentioned in many other books, as well. I don't think OR is a big problem; this is basically how Wiseman defines the term. (See, which summarizes Wiseman's book.)

 * Redirect to Conformity (psychology). As an aside, it reminds me a lot of the "when you presume you press you... to ... me..." scene from 8 Simple Rules Will (talk) 20:01, 21 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - while it may be a legitimate topic (maybe?), right now the little that is here looks to all be OR. Bjewiki 23:21, 22 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Conformity (psychology) looks to be a good action. -- Whpq 17:49, 23 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Conformity (psychology) seems to be the best option. Liveforever22 21:25, 24 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep - There's a child psychologist talking about this right now on tv. Seems like a legitimate, observable social phenomenon to me, deserving of it's own article. If the article had more articles linking to it, I'm sure more editors could find it, develop it further and bring it away from it's basis in original research. Knyght27 01:08, 25 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - as OR. No point in a re-direct: who will ever type in "Queen bee (subculture)".  Springnuts 17:32, 26 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Reply "Queen bee (subculture)" would be useful as an entry for the disambig page for Queen Bee which somebody might type in when trying to find information about the phenomenom. -- Whpq 19:00, 26 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Keep It needs a stub template, though. It is essentially a stub.  For disambiguation, there is a musical group with the same name.--Libertyguy 23:44, 26 October 2007 (UTC)
