Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Girl drama
I believe that I have added enough resources (in the external links section) to show that the term is popular enough to be included on wikipedia. However, I think that there are too many external links right now and I am planning to clean that section up if it is decided that this article wont get deleted. As for the claim that this term is "media-created" I have two comments on that. First, this claim has not been verified by any resources. Second, if it can be verified, then I do not see why this should qualify the article for deletion! In fact, I would suggest adding a section in the article about the origins of the term (if it proves to be traceable). Second, it seems that describing this term as a "junk term" is subjective and is not a valid argument for deletion! Also, I do not happen to know much about teen angst (I never heard of this term before) but I suggest adding a short paragraph about it in this article and mentioning its relation it to girl drama (if your claim that they are similar is actually valid). In short, many of the more recent arguments for deletion either seem to be false or provide further evidence that this article can be expanded to include the various aspects that were discussed here. I have to agree that the sourcing still needs improvement; I am working on it but I believe that deleting this article is in no way beneficial to wikipedia and also that keeping it in it's current state (with the references mainly serving as a proof of existence of the term) is not in any way harmful to wikipedia (especially with the references proving that this is not |original research). I believe keeping this article can in fact prove beneficial if/when more people in the community decide to help in expanding it. In summary, I find that most of the arguments made here can be directed towards expanding/improving the article and making it fit the wikipedia standards better rather than provide a case for deletion. I would also appreciate any suggestions on how this article can be made to better fit the wikipedia standards
