There's a bit about "kissing the rim whilst dunking" under NBA career. While those who know about the incident presumably understand this statement, it doesn't make any sense to the casual reader. During which game did he kiss the rim? Is it an expression of joy? WTF, mate?rcsey 22:41, 7 August 2007 (UTC)

I've added it. Reliable sources on it are not plentiful, so if someone can "beef it up" it would be much appreciated. But Young himself has said that people have only recognized him for the meme, so I do definitely believe it belongs here. Infinity Project (talk) 05:09, 29 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the move request was: moved. A strong proposal that received support per views and nomination. The well intended counter-argument was significantly downweighted to determine consensus based on the long-term significance of the subject over a 10 year period, accounting for ~99.5% of the views. If anything, it strengthened the argument of the subject being the primary topic. (non-admin closure) CNC (talk) 13:16, 20 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. Who? Primary topic only if you're a fan of American basketball. Otherwise, no primary topic by long-term significance. -- Necrothesp (talk) 09:35, 20 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
