The result was delete. Shortly after deleting, I'll be recreating this as a redirect to YOLO (motto), for which it's a likely search term. --BDD (talk) 05:21, 5 May 2013 (UTC)

YOLO principle

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Per WP:NFT, or more generally per WP:V and WP:N as articulated below. This is an unreferenced substub on a neologism, discussing an apparent software design principle.

Google test for YOLO "only load once" reveals 65 actual results, and "you only load once" gives 85 actual results. None seem reliable, and oddly do not include this article. Many hits for both searches seem to be about using laundry machines. Google Scholar reveals no results, nor does my university library catalog.

It would appear that there has been at least one other attempt to find sources. The only source ever used was a forum thread, which an IP editor removed citing COI (probably meaning SPS). Speedy was declined twice, and PROD was contested by article creator. &mdash;/M endaliv /2¢/Δ's/ 06:08, 28 April 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete The question is very simple: on 12 September 2012 the Wiki user User_talk:Gnarlycs create the article YOLO principle, and the same day that article is cited on a non notable russian forum by a user that goes by the nickname @gnarlycs; coincidence? of course not. It's a deliberate attempt, by the wikipedian Special:Contributions/Gnarlycs, to use Wiki's content to make a point in an on-line debate. YOLO is an original research by wikipedian Gnarlycs, nothing else; YOLO principle doesn't exist in Computer Science, hence the article should be deleted and wikipedian Gnarlycs reported for vandalism and disruptive behaviours. In this case is hard to assume good faith over user @gnarlycs due to his contributions focused entirely on YOLO. Toffanin (talk) 14:35, 28 April 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete via Toffanin. Nice research. I looked it over and agree with what you said.  srsrox  BlahBlahBlah...   20:07, 2 May 2013 (UTC)
