This 17-year-old article has very little content. It consists of one uncited paragraph and one cite-supported sentence. Notability not established. Nightscream (talk) 01:24, 6 February 2022 (UTC)
- Automated comment: This AfD was not correctly transcluded to the log (step 3). I have transcluded it to Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Log/2022 February 6. —Talk to my owner:Online 01:47, 6 February 2022 (UTC)

- Weak Delete I feel like there should be sourcing for why this persisted as a game, or what it teaches, but I'm unable to find anything in the way of RS coverage. Just teachign materials. Star Mississippi 02:45, 6 February 2022 (UTC)
- Delete While the concept is certainly notable, the fact is that the article has been around since 2005 and has remained more or less a stub since. For a topic not time-bounded and otherwise well-known, the fact that editors have struggled to find WP:RS indicates to me that this topic doesn't have enough substance to merit being on Misplaced Pages. I've looked through a couple past revisions of the page, and there doesn't seem to be much more than a couple paragraphs of description and the occasional extra section like appearances in popular media. --Aismallard (talk) 05:52, 7 February 2022 (UTC)
- Delete As failing WP:GNG. Should probably then be made into a disambiguation page or the film article be moved there. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 12:53, 7 February 2022 (UTC)
Delete per nomination. I'm surprised this has been kept in previous AfD... Spf121188 (talk) 19:48, 7 February 2022 (UTC)- Folks, let's try a bit of WP:BEFORE, eh? Search, don't base things on the article.
- Keep The biggest problem with sourcing this is all the hits that get in the way that aren't quite this. But an article can easily be built around all that.
- Sorry, I've got to get back to work, but folks it's clearly notable. Not a great article for sure. And we could have a whole article (or section) on "Opposite day in popular culture" given all the TV shows, comics and books that have an issue or episode named after this... Hobit (talk) 13:51, 8 February 2022 (UTC)
- Hobit, I actually think renaming the article Opposite day in popular culture and using sources like the ones you've noted would be a good alternative to deletion. Spf121188 (talk) 15:56, 8 February 2022 (UTC)
