Jimmy, I am glad you have not forgotten Brian Peppers. Neither have the YTMNDers. They will be back; I will be there when they come. I hope you will be too.
They may have sources and proof of notability by then, since some books on internet fads are currently in preparation, and I know that at least one of them will have a section on the Brian Peppers phenomenon---including mention of the debate at Wikipedia---as a case study. Will you still favor deleting it then?
