Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Boy howdy (idiom)
On Wikipedia, the standard for inclusion is |notability, which is satisfied through evidence of |significant coverage in |reliable sources; the relevant section of DICDEF is : {{tq|As with any subject, articles on words must contain encyclopedic information. That is, articles must go beyond what would be found in a dictionary entry ... and include information on the social or historical significance of the term}}. Unfortunately, I do not believe this standard is met. http://www.word-detective.com/2008/07/boy-howdy/ The Word Detective appears to be a WordPress blog (possibly )—however, it appears some entires http://www.word-detective.com/about/ may have been published in newspapers. It's not clear whether the "boy howdy" article specifically has been published in that fashion. The http://scttx.com/articles/boy-howdy-neal-murphy Shelby County Today source is local, online-publication-only, with presumably limited readership. I'm doubtful as to whether it contributes much to the subject's notability. Most of the other references provided in the article appear to only mention the idiom in ''passing'', some of them only show examples of usage. I can't find any other reliable sources that discuss this subject ''in-depth''. Perhaps information about this phrase has a place on another project like Wiktionary, or on a broader list of idioms, but it appears there's simply not enough coverage available to write a standalone ''encyclopedia article'' about it
