The End of the World (animation)

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

There is no assertation of notability, and little to be found. The article lacks verification and reliable sources to back up its claim of importance as an internet meme. Teke 17:11, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Recreate It was notable enough that Nike hired the guy to make their own ads. They were previously on the nike website, but can now be found [|here].
 * Delete The notability is not established by reliable, third party sources. It would also appear to include original research. Leebo T / C  18:56, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - nothing more than another internet meme that lacks notability per WP:WEB, fails WP:ATT, could be called OR, yadda yadda.  A r k y a n  &#149; (talk) 19:03, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. Yadda yadda yadda pretty well sums it up. Realkyhick 21:54, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - it doesn't even look funny. Masaruemoto 18:34, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment Your opinion on its humor is irrelevant. -Dylan0513 00:57, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Cough I think what Dylan0513 means is that when closing an AfD (or any other discussion), administrators are to judge the merits of the comments made in support/opposition !votes to determine consensus rather than a head count. As such, "it's not even funny" means little.  "It's not even funny, and I cannot find any verification or sources that validate the article's claim to humor" carries more weight.

 * Keep I think The End of the World should have an article as it is internet phenomenon, the current state of the article just isn't good. If it was cleaned up, it could be turned into an appropriate article. -Dylan0513 01:01, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment But the problem is the notability. It has one mention from a flash animation site, of which the notability is unclear, and that's pretty much it. Are there articles about this animation in reliable publications? Leebo T / C  01:05, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Very true. There are only like 2 articles on it. Support removed. Maybe if we find more articles it can be remade. -Dylan0513 01:24, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
