The result of the discussion was retarget to Crazy like a Fox. Anarchyte (work | talk) 14:25, 3 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Phrase does not appear within target article. Delete, or else retarget to Disambiguation page Crazy like a Fox to avoid capitalization/search clash, as per WP:R#ASTONISH. Muzilon (talk) 11:36, 21 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • I'm boldly retargeting this to the dab page. If divine madness mentions the phrase, it can be added there, but it isn't primary topic. AngusWOOF (barksniff) 01:05, 22 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This title is the literal tip of an iceberg of an internet meme. A full rundown on the topic can be found here. The redirect directs to a almost completely unrelated article, and a heading of which that doesn't exist anymore. I will assume that the said heading wasn't deemed WP-relevant (can surely be verified by digging in its history). And as I said, the target is only marginally related. Thus, the redirect itself currently serves no other purpose than confuse. So my opinion is either to make this into a full article about the internet meme, or simply delete it. And since WP doesn't usually cover that kind of topics (feel free to prove me wrong, could only find this and this on topic, pinging the Project), we are left with deletion.

  • Delete as WP:NEOLOGISM and vague: could refer to any sort of montage or collection of parodies. I haven't seen it used in news articles, but there is something about parody videos on Reddit [1] and a South Park song called "Montage" [2] and montages of video game parodies in general [3]. Without the news search filter, yes, it's a term used as described above. Some editor added a paragraph on MLG parodies in August, but it was deleted for lack of sources then added a back again in November with a single source to a random blog (Cherwell), other than that, it still lacks secondary sources independent of the subject, so the notability is highly questionable.

  • Delete per nom, basically. Either expand the page into a full article (which can be encouraged by deleting it) or don't, and delete it anyway for being surprising. Anarchyte (work | talk) 14:22, 3 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
