This article I juste created has been placed for speedy deletion by Rwiggum : i contest this measure, mainly because

concept is famous and documented see for exemple this
concept has two interwiki already, (of course none being of my doing) --Ofol ^(t) 21:48, 19 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

That's fine, but Wikipedia is not a dictionary. Unless you can provide sources to prove that the concept itself is notable, I'm going to move onto prod. Rwiggum (^Talk/_Contrib) 21:58, 19 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I’m astonished! Flat daddy is well none in France (we have fr:Flat daddy) because it’s an english concept and english wikipedia doesn’t know this concept? That’s very weird ! For sources, see on Googles Books or the french articles, there’s a lot. Cdlt, VIGNERON * ^discut. 13:17, 23 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
