Lova Sign[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Article is about an unremarkable hand gesture. One of its three references is a Facebook page; the other two are about some event in 2015. In addition, it is a barely-paraphrased copy of [1] (but G12 is only for blatant copy-and-pastes, yes? Someone made an effort here). Ignatz mice•talk 03:16, 28 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per WP:NOTPROMOTION, WP:XBALL. This is promotional material for the newly-founded Lovaganza Foundation and apparently as-yet unreleased Lovaganza trilogy of films. See also the speedied Lovaganza 2015. —/Mendaliv/^2¢/_Δ's/ 06:31, 28 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Delete: total failure to meet WP:GNG. Zero reliable sources in the whole world. Amusingly, Google Books gives one hit, from 1831, but Recaptcha let them down – the source actually says "love-sign". Dricherby (talk) 08:46, 5 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: amusingly poorly written promotional material for something extremely obscure - for instance, the Twitter page only has nine followers and two tweets. --Beerest355 (talk) 15:38, 5 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as GNG failure. I accompany this opinion with the PUKA SIGN, left hand over my forehead, palm inwards, head slightly tilted back, right hand over my gaping mouth, palm inwards, eyes crossed, while making gagging noises... Carrite (talk) 16:39, 5 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
