Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Blue Wave 2018
The problem here isn't the question of whether the election results represented a "blue wave" happening or not — the problem is that ''regardless'' of whether it happened or not, none of the content really demonstrates a reason why "Blue Wave 2018" would need a ''separate'' article from United States elections, 2018. It's not a standalone ''thing'' of its own, it's just an aspect of the election itself. We didn't create or maintain or keep "Blue Wave of 2006" as a separate article from the United States elections, 2006, and the ''only'' difference between the 2018 and 2006 blue waves runs afoul of : our job is not to create or maintain an article about every ''phrase'' that happens to pop up in the current news cycle, it's to create and maintain articles about ''things'' that people will still be looking for articles about |ten years from now. And by the same token, we never created an article about "Orange Crush" as a campaign mantra in the Canadian federal election, 2011 either — we do list it as an entry on Orange Crush (disambiguation), but the link is to the main election article ''itself'', rather than to a standalone article ''about'' the use of "Orange Crush" in that election as a ''thing'' in its own right. JobsNotMobs is not the same thing: that's an actual ''concept'' that was brought up as a campaign ''issue'' intended to ''influence'' the election results, not just a descriptive phrase about one party's prospects ''in'' the election results
