Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Wonky Pop
First of all thank you for notifying me of the deletion request. Something that is mentioned by the BBC,The Guardian and The Independent  is notable enough for Wikipedia inclusion.  Most of the above are arguments as to why these sources should not have written articles about Wonky Pop. You are entitled to that opinion of course but you can not change the fact they did what they did. Thirty plus years ago punk started as as a gorilla marketing campaign of sorts but people felt it was also something legitimate.   So instead of cursing on a talk show and wearing ripped tee shirts with a confrontational statements these people use websites and club nights. I fail to see the difference. I am not at all saying that Wonky Pop has risen close to the level of punk the article is much shorter then the punk article  as it should be. As for the future web based viral campaigns have worked but I really do not have a clue as to what the future will bring. I do think that deleting an article based on the assumption that the Wonky Pop will not become widely known borders on violating   and original research. I do not think something has to be known all over the place to merit Wikipedia inclusion there are a lot of Wikipedia articles on "cult" phenomena As for changing the tone of the article that is a topic for the talk page if the article is not deleted
