[edit] AirPiracy

Unverifiable/non-notable. Can't find any mention online other than AirPiracy.com. Article makes no clam of notability - possible vanity article. Scott Wilson 00:38, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

• Delete Doesn't seem to have caught on, really. After deletion, redirect to Air Pirates. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 01:07, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
• Redirect — per Starblind. --AbsolutDan ^(talk) 03:52, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
• Delete without the inappropriate redirection. --Dhartung | Talk 05:40, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
• Delete though I think a better redirect for the title would be to Culture jamming. In certain metropolitan areas (especially those with urban college influences) you will see some of those stickers around. I can see someone typing in the term to find out what it's about. 205.157.110.11 06:50, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
• Redirect per 205.157.110.11. Culture jamming is probably a better fit than Air Pirates. 208.147.21.65 20:45, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. I frankly don't feel that "A logo that people search for on the internet" is that notable. Do other graffitti related articles survive? It would probably, however, be appropriate to mention it briefly on Culture Jamming and redirect that page there. Logical2u 23:04, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, no redirect per nom. Seems to be a nonnotable instantiation of culture jamming. The article also contradicts its own assertion of the name and the logo never being seen together. Paddles ^T_C 02:14, 19 August 2006 (UTC)

comment I agree that is a contradiction in the article but there are stickers out there with the logo and Air Piracy underneath. unfortunately they are not in the most pleasent of areas to find for picture verification. 205.157.110.11 20:47, 19 August 2006 (UTC)

• Further comment though I won't protest if this gets redirected to Culture jamming, as the article is written I don't think it actually counts as culture jamming at all, at least not by the normal definition. As our article defines it, "Culture jamming is the act of transforming existing mass media to produce negative commentary about itself, using the original medium's communication method." I don't think that simply putting up stickers with a cryptic logo is any more an example of "culture jamming" than putting up flyers for a yard sale would be.

• Redirect — If not to Culture jamming, this should possibly be redirected to Street art or Phenomenology, as it appears similar to the André the Giant Has a Posse campaign. 208.147.21.65 18:23, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
