The result was Speedy delete for being a re-creation of previously deleted content. This is in fact exactly the same as NUGGET (AfD discussion), one of the very articles that inspired the creation of Wikipedia:Wikipedia is not for things made up in school one day in the first place. That went through a long deletion discussion in which it was decided that there simply aren't the sources describing this phenomenon to support an article. This article describes exactly the same thing, and cites zero sources, thereby giving no indication that we should revisit this discussion. Uncle G 10:48, 3 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Strong Delete per nom. Unverifiable, no sources cited, and smells of WP:OR, WP:NFT, and possibly WP:HOAX. Not Notable, and even if it were: Wikipedia is not an Instruction Manual. Scorpiondollprincess 18:38, 2 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per everything Scorpion said above (most of which I would've said myself had I not been busy Googling "backpack flipping," which unsurprisingly brings up 50 total hits). -- Kicking222 18:39, 2 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete This is actually very common at schools throughout the country, but I'm afraid as of right now it cannot be anything but original research as the media has not granted it a fluff story yet. Either way it's certainly not amongst the most encyclopaedic topics out there. GassyGuy 06:41, 3 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
