Civil skirmish status

The Josh fight should be recognized as a civil skirmish; it was not simply an event. In its Wikipedia article, a skirmish is defined as a battle with "only light, relatively indecisive combat". Since people from within the United States named Josh were pitted against each other, it is also a skirmish that is civil in nature (i.e domestic). -- EVEN-ELITE

Contested deletion

This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because... the event was covered by reliable sources, the number of which will only grow given the reporters that were there. The article is neutral, referenced, an appropriate length, and non-promotional in nature. --Ganesha811 (talk) 20:31, 24 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Expanding on this: I completely understand why this was nominated, since it was basically a meme event. But after seeing the news coverage, I decided the event was worthy of an article. It clearly meets the WP:GNG - a short article is appropriate. Ganesha811 (talk) 20:38, 24 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    Additional comment - coverage from national sources such as the AP and Fox News is additional evidence of notability - not just a local news event. Ganesha811 (talk) 22:35, 24 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Contested deletion

This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because over $7000 for charity (while a small amount, some good will come for the event) and while it's odd, after the covid-19 pandemic a little fun and odd is what we need. It's an interesting footnote in history and should remain. --92.239.188.74 (talk) 20:54, 24 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Contested deletion

This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because it marks a historic occasion that evolved from an innocent thought. It does not promote any commercial event nor person and serves solely as a memorable moment from our time and might evolve into an annual gathering that will gain importance throughout the years. Let it be known, that even during these troubled Covid times people gathered for conquest of fun and joy. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 95.102.147.224 (talk) 21:17, 24 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
