Urban Mimics

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Not sure if this is a well-known or notable art form. Google search comes up with a lot of Youtube and other wikis. I found some mentions in German newspapers. Contested prod. ... disco spinster   talk  15:43, 10 July 2011 (UTC)

 * Keep This feels like planking. It's somewhere between an art form, web content, and an event.  One article from The Gap (translated to English, and it's not the clothing store) seems to cover the fad in-depth.  It is also described somewhere between a mention and in-depth in this Zeit Article (translated to English)  and this Giessener-Zeitung article (translated to English), about how planking is old news and that Urban Mimics is emerging as a new thing.  I'm willing to support a keep for this (apparently very German) fad since it seems to fulfill WP:GNG in that it is supported in-depth by multiple, reliable sources.
