The result was withdrawn by nominator. There is lots of coverage, and I see no need to let this continue at the moment. It could be renominated later if someone thinks its necessary. —Torchiest talkedits 16:39, 27 February 2015 (UTC)

Flash-in-the-pan meme, very interesting but I would say WP:RECENTISM and WP:NOTNEWS applies here. —Torchiest talkedits 14:35, 27 February 2015 (UTC)


 * Keep - Is a meme, correct, but seems to be getting a huge amount of press, more so than many of the memes with current articles ever did. --Shivertimbers433 (talk) 14:52, 27 February 2015 (UTC)


 * Keep for now. Too early to say for sure whether it's notable or not. Better to nominate this for deletion in a week or two once the frenzy has died down a bit.Chessrat (talk) 15:05, 27 February 2015 (UTC)


 * Keep This article is about a topic that has significant reliable secondary sourcing I don't see why it should be deleted. This article is not written in the style of a news article nor does it do any original research; I can't see any reason WP:NOTNEWS would apply here. WP:RECENTISM is about the proper way to write an article to achieve balance. While the article probably doesn't achieve the right balance that is a reason for better and more careful writing not for deletion.meitme (talk) 15:55, 27 February 2015 (UTC)


 * Keep for now (page creator): I agree with all these listed points, it's a little premature, but there's no telling that this is going to end up alongside those sharks from the halftime show on a "best memes of 2015" post by some news organization about 10 months from now. This did get press coverage and some rather interesting theories (p.s. I'm on the black and blue side mainly because that's what it is, and it's just a badly taken image.)
