Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/National Punctuation Day
this day easily meets the |GNG with 86 news stories.  (The fact that it isn't an official holiday is irrelevant.)  Not sure why the nominator feels the press coverage is trivial, as a majority of the stories are specifically about the day, including stories every year since its invention.   A small sampling of coverage includes: http://nl.newsbank.com/nl-search/we/Archives?p_product=SB&p_theme=sb&p_action=search&p_maxdocs=200&p_topdoc=1&p_text_direct-0=104A077A16E6B90B&p_field_direct-0=document_id&p_perpage=10&p_sort=YMD_date:D&s_trackval=GooglePM ''Sacramento Bee'' (2004), http://pqasb.pqarchiver.com/tampatribune/access/886906951.html?dids=886906951:886906951&FMT=ABS&FMTS=ABS:FT&type=current&date=Aug+22%2C+2005&author=PHILIP+MORGAN&pub=Tampa+Tribune&desc=NATIONAL+PUNCTUATION+DAY&pqatl=google ''Tampa Tribune'' (2005), http://www.register-herald.com/features/local_story_266231324.html?keyword=secondarystory ''Register-Herald'' (2006), http://nl.newsbank.com/nl-search/we/Archives?p_product=SAEC&p_theme=saec&p_action=search&p_maxdocs=200&p_topdoc=1&p_text_direct-0=11BE018D758362F8&p_field_direct-0=document_id&p_perpage=10&p_sort=YMD_date:D&s_trackval=GooglePM ''San Antonio Express'' (2007), http://www.ajc.com/traffic/content/living/stories/2008/09/24/national_punctuation_day.html ''Atlanta Constitution Journal'' (2008), even the http://thestar.com.my/lifestyle/story.asp?file=/2009/3/6/lifefocus/3394592&sec=lifefocus ''Malaysia Star'' (2009) mentions it. The lack of notability of its creator is also irrelevant
