Created only for a meme. The three entries are the meme, one obscure person, and something with a different spelling entirely. -1ctinus📝🗨 00:59, 3 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Remove the questionable def and we still have a pretty solid disambiguation page which just needs spelling from templates added. Nate • (chatter) 01:04, 3 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment @1ctinus: I did not create the article for the meme but rather because the meme introduced sufficient entries for the requirements of a disambiguation page. I've made over 60 different disambiguation pages for different reasons and one of them is because a trending topic is going to have people searching for it on Wikipedia. So in this case, a new or unregistered user is likely to search "sussy" in Wikipedia looking for some encyclopedic information on why it's a meme (since articles or sections for other specific memes exist on this site), and a disambiguation helps guide them to what they're looking for, in this case, "sussy". Since the meme does not have its own article or enough independence from Among Us to have its own, it is incorporated within the article courtesy of me, with references provided. A popular topic that does not have its own article or even just a section still can be entered into a disambiguation page as long as there's an actual mention explaining it. I also would like to point out that having a disambiguation page prevent new or unregistered users from going ahead and creating an article on such a minor, specific topic that may violate any guidelines and therefore prevents the worst case of the namespace from being blocked from creation.

Keep Meme's been nixed, and now we have a totally normal, albeit humourously named to some people, disambiguation page. casualdejekyll (talk) 01:53, 3 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

- Comment' WaddlesJP13 restored it, but there are more important things going on than arguing about this. A redirect for the Among Us slang to Among Us#Continued popularity (where Sus (meme) goes to) might be more appropriate (and I note I haven't heard of 'susy' being slang at all until today).

  - I've taken note of your comment and have created a better link for the entry (Sussy (meme)). WaddlesJP13 (talk | contributions) 19:35, 3 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. The meme appears to be a valid entry (WP:DABMENTION), but even without it there are two eligible entries already. – Uanfala (talk) 20:56, 3 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. I've found a guitarist and a place where Theobald of Provins lived (and "hermitted") too. Clarityfiend (talk) 21:58, 4 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Perfectly valid disambiguation page with legit entries. As for whether it was created because of the meme... inspiration comes from many places. Helen(💬📖) 23:21, 5 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
