Not relevant, random TikTok trend { [ ( jjj 1238 ) ] } 13:40, 12 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Events, Popular culture, Internet, Israel, and Palestine. Skynxnex (talk) 13:46, 12 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: Adequately covered trends have a place on Wikipedia, e.g. Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/TikTok Dabloons. No argument was provided for why it is irrelevant. The article sources its contextualization and the topic itself. Further references can still be added [1][2][3][4][5][6]. Per WP:GNG, it should be kept.

Keep: As the article creator, I went through extra effort to research and include enough references from reputable outlets to demonstrate it easily passes the general notability guideline. The sources that are reliable and constitute WP:SIGCOV include National Public Radio, Yahoo News, and the Miami Herald, among others. It is difficult to take this AfD in good faith when it does not reference any policy basis for the nomination. - Fuzheado | Talk 15:12, 12 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. No actual reasoning for this article to be deleted has been given. Cortador (talk) 16:52, 12 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep ongoing trend/news event, but already documented by entertainment and non-entertainment websites. --Apoxyomenus (talk) 17:36, 12 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep pretty ridiculous to vote for the deletion of a massive protest movement that significantly impacted the social media presence of dozens of celebrities. Especially considering a political climate that refuses to acknowledge the protests as legitimate and actively contributes to censuring folks who participate. Should #MeToo have been considered a random twitter hashtag? <IP removed> 19:53, 12 May 2024 (UTC)

Keep This is a significant ongoing protest movement and no adequate reason has been given for deletion. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2a0a:ef40:61c:2c01:ddfc:1250:79c0:64d (talk) 19:59, 13 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Meets WP:GNG. S5A-0043^Talk 11:11, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - Since this AfD was created, even more reliable sources have published stories about this, essentially making this a WP:SNOW situation. Might Jjj1238 be willing to kindly withdraw the nomination so that we can close this? Sources: Al Jazeera, Newsweek, Buzzfeed, Deseret News, NBC News, NBC Today.com, Jerusalem Post, South China Morning Post, Times of India, et al. - Fuzheado | Talk 12:15, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep it covers a relevant protest movement linked to a conflict that is redefining the whole international system. 185.120.125.4 (talk) 01:26, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep It is notable and reliably sourced. WC gudang inspirasi (^{Read! Talk!}) 03:37, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: Topic properly covered in the media. I would also suggest the nomination be withdrawn. Hogo-2020 (talk) 08:46, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
