[edit] Salute day
Unsourced article about a celebration created in 2005 by a group of people at a radio station. Google finds hits for things such as "Blue Star Salute Day", "Just Salute Day", "Madonna della Salute day", “Freedom Team Salute Day", "Israel Salute Day", and "Senior Salute Day", but no apparent matches to this celebration. The event is not even mentioned on the website for the radio station that supposedly started this event.[1] Delete as per Wikipedia is not for things made up one day unless proper sources provided to establish verifiability of article subject. --Allen3 talk 14:12, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
- Delete per research done by nom. I checked as well, I don't think this is a hoax, but the difficulty in establishing the existence of this event shows its lack of notability. No sourcing on this. Gwynand | Talk•Contribs 14:26, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

- Delete if it exists at all, it's certainly not backed up by any reliable sources that I could find. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 15:28, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
- MAINTAIN As this date is only two years old and will not be evidenced in your limited searches, the page is only a few hours old and the information is not all there. A list of the participants will be added later as well as a further explanation. The link the the Website was removed and only placed in the first place as it was an attempt to put as much information on the site as possible. Gospodin Baseball is not correct in removing items and "closing ISSUES"
- Lastly, look up LPAM and LPFM to find a list of stations that exist in this nation. There are hundreds of thousands and this movement is spreading like wildfire. There are an expected 3000 participants this year and that is why we felt it worthy of putting up a page. If the names of the originators are bothersome, that can be easily removed, but that is how this came about.
- Thanks for your time, which you seem to have plenty of.....
- Thank god you guys were not around when Francis Scott Key was scribbling on a piece of paper....

- Key's poem was printed in newspapers within a week of his writing it. This is the electronic age, the internet age. If your growing movement hasn't showed up in the internet at all in two years time, what other conclusion are we to draw as regards its notability, except that it has none?

- My point is that if you were around Key may have never been published because you would have attempted to stop it. And many things do not see the light of day for many years. For instance Trademark Laws, like using trademarked images and saying in your name. Take it down, I will just put it back up next month with a list of 3000 participants, many newspaper articles and further evidence, or you can wait. I also prefer that folks not remove the discussion edits that demonstrate your bias, Tovarish. Gary De Pury 17:16, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

- You might try to explain what the "Tovarish" reference means, as it makes no sense to me. Otherwise, you need to understand that wikipedia does not originate information. In 1814, we would have demanded a reliable source - and we would have had one: the newspapers that TSSB was published in. Where are your published sources for this event that you're promoting?
