This "World Day Without Wifi" is an attempt by an anti-5G group out of Argentina (or perhaps Barcelona, it's actually hard for me to figure this out as the group responsible doesn't seem to have an internet presence outside of Facebook any longer) to make this event a thing. It is not a thing. While WP:SENSATIONalist press coverage for the first day in 2016 happened, this remains essentially WP:ONEEVENT covered without much care as can be seen from the lack of any incredulity over the claim about "radiaciones tóxicas". We would need some good independent sourcing establishing this as a "world wide" event to keep this as an article. As it is, it's just not something that is anything yet. jps (talk) 14:12, 10 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete for failing at pretty much everything including NPOV, notability, writing style, and English-language sources. --Hob Gadling (talk) 16:46, 10 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per above. No evidence this gained any traction, article can't have any real substance beyond WP:ITEXISTS. — The Hand That Feeds You:^Bite 17:13, 10 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Agreeing with the other four here that the article needs to be deleted as it is wp:notnews. And I also agree that this is not wp:not. Pahiy (talk) 17:25, 10 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Nothing to add except WiFi conspiracies are really outshone by 5G these days. GPinkerton (talk) 21:39, 10 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete This is incredibly lacking in notability. I see no reason to keep it. Scorpions13256 (talk) 05:51, 11 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete When searching, it seems that "World Wi-Fi Day" is what comes out instead... Indicating the lack of notability. —Paleo Neonate – 19:55, 14 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, no evidence of notability, just a fringe group trying to get publicity. Doug Weller talk 17:28, 15 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
