Tidal Impact
AfDs for this article: 
 * – ( View AfD View log  •  Stats )

This article has only one reference that is not a primary source. Despite being flagged for a reasonable length of time as requiring citations in order to validate the various claims made within it, none has been forthcoming. This implies that the topic is not as notable as those who created the article believe, and, possibly, that it was placed in Wikipedia to fly a kite and see if it might remain. The topic is not verifiable as notable. It has been to AfD before and the closure specifically allows early renomination for deletion.

A search using the usual channels has not revealed anything except a study made on participants by a university to look at motivations as far as I can recall. This is not a reference for the event itself in a reliable source

I have waited for what I believe is a polite period before renominating it. I made an error and used PROD before. That error has been corrected. Fiddle Faddle (talk) 17:12, 16 April 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete - No luck in finding any sources about this that aren't first party. Looking at the previous AFD debate for this article, it seems that this problem was addressed by the article creator that there were none, and unfortunately the response given there is the same.  If there are no reliable third party sources available, then there is no place on Wikipedia for the article.  Rorshacma (talk) 19:08, 23 April 2012 (UTC)
