Originally PROD'd in 2016 with a rationale pointing out it was a neologism. DePROD'd with the rationale that it likely met GNG.

I would dispute this. In particular, WP:N demands that topics have gained attention across a period of time, ie, not merely for one weekend before dropping off into obscurity. Every single source in this article is from approximately May 13th, 2016, with no sources dating before or after found on a search, which tells us that this concept, while amusing as news site filler, is not actually encyclopedically notable. This is the definition of a concept that badly fails the ten year test - it would hardly pass a hypothetical ten day test. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 11:20, 7 May 2020 (UTC)

• Delete as a flash-in-the-pan neologism. Like the nom, I was unable to find any sources that weren't from May 2016. I can't think of anywhere to merge this either. SpicyMilkBoy (talk) 00:16, 8 May 2020 (UTC)
