Filipino wave (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View log)

  • Speedy Delete. This article is merely a list of pop culture references to anything related to Filipino culture. As far as is made apparent, the idea that there's a "wave" of these references exists only in the mind of the User:Patrick2480. Also, check here. Someone called "Patrick I." says: "You all heard the phrase Korean wave[...] well I just coined the phrase Filipino wave, and hope the rest of the world gets in on it." --MQDuck 06:21, 8 May 2008 (UTC)

  • Delete' Definitely WP:OR! It appears the author has made up the phrase and written an article to support his new phrase. Nk.sheridan   Talk 21:14, 8 May 2008 (UTC)

  • Delete Filipino bias aside. Sources found from Google search are either forums or blogs which are not reliable. Anyways it might be a good redirect to a future Filipino Diaspora article.--Lenticel (talk) 07:45, 9 May 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete. OR, obviously. Unless, of course, someone along the likes of Korina Sanchez or Jessica Soho picks it up and features this dubious notion on their pseudo-magazine shows. --- Tito Pao (talk) 04:55, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
