Non-notable campaign started by an unknown group. Ridernyc (talk) 07:11, 24 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - Please, google about "Moodoff Day" Thanks, NickAang (talk) 07:15, 24 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I did please provide use with with sources that show coverage in independent reliable sources. Ridernyc (talk) 07:35, 24 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Note Once you remove the self published websites, social networking, and a good portion of the internet forums where this was astroturfed you are left with this [1] a sad mixture of forums and self publsihed PR sites where this has been astroturfed. Someone has spent a lot of time and money trying to SEO this. Ridernyc (talk) 09:18, 24 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Note Article creator has admited to what appears to be paid promotional editing here. [2] Ridernyc (talk) 09:37, 24 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - Please refer to the below independent news

http://www.ntnews.com.au/article/2012/02/25/290685_ntnews.html (Australia News paper) http://www.livdigital.co.za/switch-off-your-phone-all-day-right/ (South Africa News paper) It's a community campaign (not a business or a company), the unique campaign is run by a registered nonprofit organization in sydney. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 60.240.201.156 (talk) 13:42, 24 January 2013 (UTC) — 60.240.201.156 (talk) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

Please, stop lying without further research! Thanks, NickAang (talk) 17:53, 24 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Not sure what that even means. Can you please stop with all the smoke screens and provide interdependent sources that establish notability. Other editors are welcome to see my reply here [3] for a a more thought out reply. Ridernyc (talk) 18:13, 24 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Note - Please, read paid editing and I never admitted that and never intended to create articles that do not meet the wikipedia policy for my own profit. The nominator didn't show any guidance and also received comments from other editors for nominating articles for deletion without researching in depth. Thanks, NickAang (talk) 19:14, 24 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Still no sources? Ridernyc (talk) 19:15, 24 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Plz Keep - Dear Ridernyc, not sure what resource you are looking for? So does it mean that you are not supporting a Community Awareness Program? Or do you think smartphone addiction is not a social issue anymore; it has got no impact on community??

This campaign is a new one and it’s on the 2nd year only and every new Awareness program needs some time to be accepted by our community and media. Independent newspaper covered us and we have got testimonial from different kind of people. Resources will be created slowly as we move on with your support. I can ask people to write you, how their kids died in car accident while texting and driving. There are hundreds of examples and this campaign is just a starting point for the awareness. FYI, this is not a business or profit making company and by putting few lines in wiki, we won’t make any money out of it. So please kindly help and consider us. I’m happy to call you and discuss. I hope wiki support community awareness program. Please allow us by keeping these 4/5 lines. If by next year you will see this event is not making any sense, then you can remove it. But a notice of deletion doesn’t look good and it demotivates us to run the campaign for our community.

Comment Tapas senapati, one of the problems with the article is that Wikipedia articles should be for things that are already widely known about now. For campaigns that are, as you have stated, rather new, and haven't picked up much attention from the national media yet, it may be too soon to have an article. When you've got lots of newspaper coverage, had appearances on national television and radio, and recognised by public bodies, that's the time to create an article.

Bring on the SPA and Sockpuppetry. How did I know we would end up here. Ridernyc (talk) 01:06, 25 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

WP:SPI is thataway. Per WP:BWILKINS, file your case, or stop accusing editors of being socks for no reason. Ritchie333 ^(talk) ^(cont) 14:56, 25 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

please see WP:DUCK and stop lecturing me. Ridernyc (talk) 16:08, 25 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: Anyone remember this goodie from 2007, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Fuck The Earth Day? Even Jesusween hasn't passed muster. Seriously, now, its all well and good what this organization is doing, but its not near notable yet, and unlikely to become so.--Milowent • ^hasspoken 04:18, 25 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, the only coverage is either self-published material or astroturf. Also, they used "aware" as a verb. Not notable yet. Lankiveil ^{(speak to me)} 07:03, 27 January 2013 (UTC).[reply]
