#question[edit]
Out of curiosity, do we need this article? I don't Twitter (much), but here and far-right or social justice special-interest news sources (WHTM, Mary Sue, Feministe, ATTN:, Breitbart, InfoWars, etc.) were the only places I've seen discussing it. Even Reddit has only one or two major postings on it, and that's largely been on the response rather than a rally. ℕoir LeSable (talk) 19:38, 11 March 2016 (UTC)
- Prominent internet "celebrities" were involved in this. It may not be as big as Gamergate, but it's still a relevant Internet event. It's even warranted an IB Times article (granted, by Southern...) --Ilovescience (talk) 20:00, 11 March 2016 (UTC)
- Eh. I'm still kinda shaky on this, when other hashtag movements and Twitteroversies like #YesAllWomen, #CancelColbert, #OscarsSoWhite, etc., are brief and wrapped in other articles, if they are even brought up at all. #BlackLivesMatter does have its own article, but that's because it's its own massive movement outside the hashtag, spawning IRL protests and encompassing several IRL events.
- If other people are cool with it, that's cool. ℕoir LeSable (talk) 21:27, 11 March 2016 (UTC)
- Here's another vote for questioning its relevancy. Is anyone going to remember this a month from now? Vulpius (talk) 21:41, 11 March 2016 (UTC)
- I'm unconvinced. OTOH, it's hilariously stupid - David Gerard (talk) 12:09, 12 March 2016 (UTC)
