This appears to be a joke. I can find no WP:RS that confirm the existence of this "holiday". The only things I see all cite this wiki article. As far as I can tell, this is a party some friends have thrown every year in CA, and I guess one of them decided to make a wiki page as a joke. Bachrach44 (talk) 22:06, 6 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- Speedy delete per WP:HOAX. The references are all non-functioning links. Yoninah (talk) 23:08, 6 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Speedy Delete. WP:HOAX; no references, and searching gets me none, except a website that asks for my google password. Churn and change (talk) 23:18, 6 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Speedy delete as a hoax. The references include two dead links, a web site that has no relevant content, and a "Diversity Calendar" from the December 2005 Cincinnati Magazine. That issue is available in full view on Google Books, and while it does contain a "Diversity Calendar" there is no mention of Nonukah. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 00:04, 7 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Speedy delete - 3/3 nonfunctioning refs, ask any rabbi and they'll tell you this holiday doesn't exist. The first sentence, "Nonukah is a widely celebrated holiday marking the end of the eight days of Hanukah and the beginning of the 358 days of the year that are not Hanukah" shows that this article is a clear hoax. --Jethro B 00:06, 7 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Speedy Delete as a hoax. At best, it's WP:MADEUP elsewhere on the internet, and still doesn't have the sources to meet the WP:GNG. Vcessayist (talk) 01:08, 7 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment - I requested a CSD based on the unanimous support here. --Jethro B 01:13, 7 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
