World UFO day

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Contested prod. Article is about a non-notable holiday, possibly made up one day. No significant coverage in reliable sources provided, none found outside of blog mentions. It should be noted that the sourced listed as "Yahoo news" does not go to Yahoo. TN X Man 14:24, 24 June 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete Keep Completely non-notable and no sources relevant to the article. Relevant citations from reliable sources have now been added to the article. Sorry for judging prematurely!


 * Keep - has been around since at least 2004, plenty of Ghits including respectable The Scotsman newspaper - though some doubt over date! PamD (talk) 14:43, 24 June 2009 (UTC)
 * And my apologies if anyone is upset by my having moved the page after it had been AfD'd - the previous title just looked ridiculous, and I forgot you're not supposed to move an article during an AfD. I only dropped by to stub-sort it anyway, then got more involved. PamD (talk) 14:46, 24 June 2009 (UTC)
 * No worries, I think all of the links should be updated. TN X Man  14:49, 24 June 2009 (UTC)


 * Keep - There are a lot of hits for this holiday on web searches. The websites indicate that this holiday is known and celebrated in many different countries.  There are also three links/references so far to news articles from diverse sources, (The Scotsman, The Sun, and Yahoo News). Note: The link to the Yahoo News now actually goes to a Yahoo News story. - Nortonew (talk) 22:21, 24 June 2009 (UTC)


 * Comment: If it survives AfD, should probably be renamed to "World UFO Day" (ie capital D) - sorry about my carelessness in previous move (from "World ufo day" to "World UFO day")! PamD (talk) 15:17, 24 June 2009 (UTC)
