A crystal clear case of WP:ONEEVENT, created by Ukrainians to retaliate for the Russian annexation of Crimea and invasion in Donbass. Ymblanter (talk) 09:57, 17 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Note that the author of the paper once reverted the speedy deletion template and attempted to revert my AfD template.--Ymblanter (talk) 10:02, 17 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
What you mean "created by Ukrainians"? What if "created by niggas"? Are you Russist?--Dim Grits 17:07, 17 June 2014 (UTC)

I'm Ukrainian, and as much as I want his arguments to be false, they are not. The notability does not settle in one day. Barvinok (talk) 11:51, 17 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
The fact that you claim to be ukrainian is irrelevant here. His argument is false since the "incident" at the embassy was about this song. There would be no such outcry if not for the song that our acting foreign minister sang at this event.--vityok (talk) 11:34, 18 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep: the phenomenon has gained a considerable attention, including international mass-media reports and a diplomatic row making it relevant enough to be kept. As to the "temporarity" of the phenomenon - there is no way to say how long it will last until it ends. So far, the topic is important, well-sourced, has got a considerable attention and the article must be kept.--vityok (talk) 11:03, 17 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment. I do not have time to check the user contributions anymore, but I hope the closing admin will disregard the vote stacking.--Ymblanter (talk) 11:06, 17 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    Quoting discussion template: "consensus (agreement) is gauged based on the merits of the arguments, not by counting votes." -- but obviously some users are trying to base it on 'contributions count' instead. What a nice new twist in continuing perversion of wikirules. 83.149.35.150 (talk) 11:25, 17 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

For example, president of Chechnya promised "to bring ukrainians to their knees for this song".

There are also articles , on Wikipedia, on similar thematics, like "Der Fuehrer's Face"

92.49.208.82 (talk) 11:15, 17 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • This template must be substituted.
    Der Fuehrer's Face was an immensely popular recording (#3 on the U.S. charts) by a highly notable artist released by the most notable of record labels, still being discussed for its cultural impact 70 years later. I don't see logic to this argument at all. 78.26 (His Wiki's Voice) 12:06, 17 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete as individually not notable, but likely usable in any article on Ukraine anti-Russian demonstration articles. Whether the article has any bias is irrelevant here - the problem is the song qua song simply fails notability guidelines on Wikipedia. AFAICT, the mentions are all in the larger context of demonstrations, and not strongly about the song itself. For example, the Guardian article is about a "chant" and abut a word one envoy used - not about a song, and absolutely not about a specific song to establish notability of the song. Collect (talk) 12:01, 17 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete, as there cannot be any secondary sources able to judge the song's impact. The song's surrounding context is ongoing, so all sources are primary by definition, and we cannot predict whether solid secondary sources will be published at a later date. "Der Führer's Face" is notable because it's been discussed by secondary sources, which looked back at the song and could judge its impact from a distance, and such sources clearly can't exist yet for this song. Nyttend (talk) 12:10, 17 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Not notable. No evidence of song's impact. Way too soon to see if it's anything substantial. Please note that the outcome of this discussion will be based on strength of argument and not by popular vote so flooding it with supporters is a waste of time.Cowlibob (talk) 12:42, 17 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, more than 1 300 000 views of the video in 3 days https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kac73Ks_Yqo --Perohanych (talk) 13:05, 17 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • But it just a single video of a single performance. There a lot of other recordings. This is yet another proof that this song is popular and gains its popularity with every coming day. There are plenty of articles devoted to single songs from some band album. Why is this one different?--vityok (talk) 11:37, 18 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Rediect to an appropriate location, for now. The WaPo link is a valid source, the claim above of "It's not a Washingtonpost article, but a personal blog" is false. The blogging sections of reliable sources, particularly newspapers, are no different from a journalist penning a regular column. The Guardian and Bloomberg also contain brief mentions of the song/chant directly. 1 solid source and a few name-drops (there are others such as the Independent) bring this pretty close to the notability threshold. Tarc (talk) 13:09, 17 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak delete (a redirect would be okay but I can't think of where at the moment). There's a chance this might become notable in the future but I don't think it's there yet. The vote-spam actually does more harm than good. Stlwart111 13:13, 17 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: these words of the popular chants are widespread in the world, it is popular not only among football fans, but also among politicians. There are many references to authoritative sources.--Nikkolo (talk) 13:20, 17 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

*Incubate - in light of all the !vote stacking and the issues with reliable sources let alone the problems with notability, I suggest that the article be put into limbo to see if it becomes notable and achieves a level for inclusion. - Pmedema (talk) 14:33, 17 June 2014 (UTC)- In light of recent changes and further insite, I have changed my opinion on the matter to KEEP . I didn't feel this was a WP:ONEEVENT even before but the notability issues and the !vote stacking was questionable. This seems to have worked it self out and notability has been established.[reply]

  • keep: A useful article that lets people learn more about the people of Russia and their leadership.--Rkononenko (talk) 14:43, 17 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Having looked at the article's sources, I was leaning towards keeping this article, even though some of the opposing arguments are valid as well and are a reason for concern. Then I've noticed Pmedema's incubation proposal, and at this point of time it seems to be the perfect solution.—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); June 17, 2014; 14:51 (UTC)
  • keep or keep and rename this song is known probably since March 30, 2014 (cf. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9G6bMheayBQ). Since then it became popular in the Ukraine in the context of the Russian military intervention and seems to deserve an encyclopaedic definition. If the title of the article is offending as such consider renaming it. Guswen (talk) 14:59, 17 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak keep The relevant criteria is WP:NSONG: "Songs and singles are probably notable if they have been the subject[1] of multiple, non-trivial[2] published works whose sources are independent of the artist and label". This is one such source. If more sources can be found (I can't read Ukrainian so can't comment on the sources in the article) then my keep !vote would be stronger. --NeilN talk to me 15:41, 17 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: History repeats ... This song is very similar to Hitler Has Only Got One Ball. --Рома (talk) 15:42, 17 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. The fact that it was created as retaliation is not really relevant to its notability. It appears notable enough, having received international media coverage in many countries.Hergilei (talk) 16:03, 17 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per NeilN; a second source is [4] (contains an entire video of the protest song) - I think others in the article now also qualify. I have voted Keep in discussions such as Santorum (neologism) and Stop Watching Us, which respectively deal with a meme and a single protest. I am very much opposed to reactions that covering the topic might offend or that something in the Ukraine is of too limited an importance --- these are bias that we must overcome. Wnt (talk) 16:13, 17 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment mostly agree with Tarc, but this is moving fast and likely has become notable already. It might be on the border now of being a single event - the comment at the embassy - but the phrase and the song are intertwined with that. WaPo, Telegraph, Independent, and Bloomberg are all reliable sources. The RFE article at http://www.rferl.org/content/putin-profanity-ukraine-deshchytsya/25425498.html almost pushes me over the edge. It's a more rounded article geographically and its video is about Kharkiv, not about the embassy in Kiev. BTW, before anybody uploads the video as PD-US Gov, you should check thoroughly if Commons policy does reflect that RFE is actually US GOV (it seems obvious but I know that there has been some discussion). In any case within a few days we'll know if this meme takes off or dies out as quickly as it came. Smallbones(smalltalk) 16:21, 17 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • There shouldn't be any misperception that this is the Ukrainian version of "All we are saying is give peace a chance". This is intentionally the nastiest thing that people can imagine saying in Russian (and I assume in Ukrainian as well); and this in a culture that has a special place in its heart and history for foul language (mat). That said, I cannot blame Ukrainians fro saying this to Putin - how else to get the point across that they are sick of Russian domination, and invasions (by proxy or otherwise)? To repeat this is really nasty stuff. The only thing that was remotely close was Pussy Riot - at the time I was thinking "How could they possibly put this on TV/Radio?" Well they have and we've gotten used to it, and they made their point by being intentionally shocking with their language. This wording however is about 10 times as shocking. Go by reliable sources and notability is all I can say. It seems right up there if not just over that point right now. Smallbones(smalltalk) 19:16, 17 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment The context of the article might be offensive to some nationalistic groups, but, we are brothers here, right? So why does user @Jack User: calls English Wikipedia, fake history? I personally see Russian Wikipedia as a Stalinist propaganda wiki but I know that Wikipedia content can be objectionable and therefore I tend to ignore it. Also, I need to point out that @Ymblanter: shouldn't dictate the Russian Wikipedia rules here, and judge who have how many edit counts. Every Wikipedia is different, including this one. For anyone who doesn't know, he used to be registered in the Russian Wikipedia but decided to live it.--Mishae (talk) 19:29, 17 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
No personal attack on User:Ymblanter is called for here. He is a valued member of this community. Rules here about SPAs and new accounts apply here as well. Smallbones(smalltalk) 19:39, 17 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Hmm, it is discrimination. SO valued user may not be attacked, and not value may be attacked? It is wrong, I think.--Anatoliy (Talk) 19:52, 17 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
No body is personally attacking anyone, I just pointed out the facts, that he used to be in the Russian Wikipedia, and that they use opposite-to-us tactics there when it comes to deletion discussion. I.e, in Russian Wikipedia majority of the articles get deleted because no one issues against. My opinion is that he is trying to do it here, that's why Jack User calls English Wikipedia fake history (with which I disagree). Maybe I should have putted it in different context?--Mishae (talk) 20:17, 17 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, I may have over-reacted. I'll just stress that I know him as a good guy and that he knows our rules very well. It's probably important to understand that Russians could be easily offended by this article. Smallbones(smalltalk) 20:40, 17 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Its fine. I personally don't feel offended, but then we need to consider WP:UNDUE if the minority here feels threatened. But in the current state, its just a farce of debate. Wikipedia is not a place for censorship, and this article is discussed as weather its hurtful or not rather then is it notable enough.--Mishae (talk) 21:02, 17 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
It definitely is not one event, it has been in the football stadiums since March and recently became more widespread because of the embassy incident -- Muumi (talk) 06:32, 18 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
if it has no significance, why is it being covered by the international news media? USchick (talk) 06:36, 18 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you very much for the invitation, I have already commented. For full disclosure, I have not been in contact with User:Yulia Romero in a long time to prevent any collusion on our part, even though I do consider him as a good reliable friend. Privet Yulia Romero! USchick (talk) 18:36, 18 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
PS @Mishae: and there I is + thanks for calling me "WikiProject Ukraine expert". — Yulia Romero • Talk to me! 18:28, 18 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak keep It barley passes Wikipedia:N; but I have seen articles about a lot less interesting things. — Yulia Romero • Talk to me! 18:28, 18 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - as much as I wanted to 'delete' to spite the socks/nationalists this chant does appear notable. GiantSnowman 18:57, 18 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete or Merge w/Deshchytsia article. I want to thank Mishae for inviting me to the discussion as it became a sincere surprise to me find so much support for the article. However as Yulia Romero pointed out, the article barely passes wikipedia notability. Aleksandr Grigoryev (talk) 20:33, 18 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep What Giant Snowman said. DeCausa (talk) 20:35, 18 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep by analogy with ¿Por qué no te callas?. It's definitely a thing of its own, with coverage etc. -- Y not? 13:55, 23 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep this is much more than just a song or a chant, more than just one event - its use is ongoing and spreading like a wildfire as we speak. What about the Deshchica incident at the Russian embassy in Kiev? The FM of a country says this saying and is dismissed from his post! (as I hear). Not related to football, right? -- This is becoming a global phenomenon - people post this on social networks, take photos of themselves holding this slogan. A guy was arrested in Moscow a week ago for holding up the slogan with just one word "huilo" for "insulting the President". -- And it is very notable, because in Russian to address to President the insult in mat is unheard of - and this one is done openly, on massive scale. First time in history. -- WillNess (talk) 21:36, 18 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect for now to 2014 Russian military intervention in Ukraine. Integrate whatever's usable in this article to that one. This is close to meeting notability standards, but not quite there. At some point, if the situation changes, the article can spring back to life. By the way, the nationalist socking is annoying. Coretheapple (talk) 00:41, 19 June 2014 (UTC) Changing to Keep as new sources have been added that push this over the edge into notability-land. Coretheapple (talk) 14:38, 20 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep finally getting off the fence. The google translate version of a La Stampa story finally did it for me. The foreign minister was sacked for saying it. Boy, some folks just can't take a little constructive criticism. I suppose this will go down in history along with the Baltic Republics having their Singing Revolution and Ukraine now has its own version. Smallbones(smalltalk) 01:31, 19 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak keep It might turn out to be just a flash in the pan of no lasting significance, but it seems at least as notable as, say, Janet Jackson's nipple. But historical significance is rarely clear at the time; it could turn out to be as significant as We will bury you. I found the article via mainstream news and came to WP for more background on the subject (specifically, a nuanced translation of хуйло). The decision is only between a dedicated article, and a section in another one. Personally I think there's enough material to justify a dedicated article, and thus oppose deletion, but it's not far over the line; I wouldn't be horribly upset if it got merged elsewhere. 71.41.210.146 (talk) 04:51, 19 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep So obviously not a ONEEVENT and it easily passes VERIFIABILITY and NOTABILITY. This is so clearly an ongoing story with multiple occurrences, reported in multiple countries, and that resulted in a diplomatic incident. There are at least three high quality mainstream journalistic reliable sources—The Guardian, Washington Post, and Le Monde, from the UK, US, and France—that are independent and cover the story with significant depth. — Becksguy (talk) 06:37, 19 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep As mentioned previously not a ONEEVENT and it passes VERIFIABILITY and NOTABILITY, since self-proclaimed Russian "republics" and "Russian spring", which were first followed by no one now did make it into history. As of today, Putin has made no proof he is not a "kuhuilo", furthermore, Kremlin media oficially have clarified, that the song does not concern all the Russians of same name, but only V.V.Putin [8]Xobbitua (talk) 13:12, 19 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong Keep There is ample evidence that it passes WP:V and WP:NOTABILITY and it is not WP:ONEEVENT. Brudder Andrusha (talk) 15:22, 19 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - not every protest song is notable - this one is sort of run of the mill, from what I can see, beside the nasty tone. FWIW, I agree with the sentiment of the song if not its words - or its alleged notability. Bearian (talk) 17:03, 19 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - The question is not whether we think the phrase is offensive or not, or our political sympathies, or whether this article is interesting or not, but whether this subject passes GNG as the subject of multiple pieces of substantial, independently published coverage in sources of presumed reliability. This does. Carrite (talk) 14:27, 20 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - very popular and well-known international phenomenon. --A1 (talk) 13:25, 24 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
