Wikipedia is not 4chan or a tabloid: "Wikipedia articles should respect the basic human dignity of their subjects. Wikipedia aims to be a reputable encyclopedia, not a tabloid. Our articles must not serve primarily to mock or disparage their subjects, whether directly or indirectly." -- wp:blp#Basic human dignity. See also Melissa Sander. -- Jeandré, 2009-01-14t12:02z 12:02, 14 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per WP:BLP. I agree, we don't want to confuse our mission with that of 4chan, or even Family Guy. --TS 12:46, 14 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete I agree wholeheartedly. I also think WP could consider its policy on stories about "Internet memes." Northwestgnome (talk) 15:54, 14 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Speedy delete WP:CSD#G10 attack page. So tagged. —David Eppstein (talk) 16:27, 14 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete and let's remember that local TV reporters aren't notable whether the are best known for the best work or their lowest moments - otherwise, this would be a keeper and renamed for the reporter involved since she does have the same (or more) notability than is usual in that profession.

- Speedy delete Looks like attack even if it mightn't be. Non-notable on grounds of forgetability. Peridon (talk) 18:03, 14 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge and redirect to List of Internet phenomena. Not notable enough for its own article, but belongs there. THF (talk) 19:27, 14 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per Northwestgnome (talk · contribs). Tim Pierce (talk) 21:05, 14 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Fails notability, besides any issues of it being an attack page. Edison (talk) 22:03, 14 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge to Tales of a Third Grade Nothing. It is a good idea to mention the incident briefly in the article on the Family Guy episode to give the whole thing context, but an entire article that is really only about one embarrasing moment in a real person's life violates WP:BLP and WP:UNDUE. - Mgm|(talk) 00:23, 15 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
