Seems to fail WP:MADEUP. Event organised by a men's lifestyle website and a few minor food retailers. Some media coverage, but certainly not any kind of well-known event. Blythwood (talk) 17:51, 24 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Disagree, however appreciate that since the day was originally created by Mr Hyde its difficult to separate the two. There is mainstream media coverage[1][2][3][4] and national restaurant chains taking part.[5][6][7][8] --Ibwannet (talk) 10:58, 25 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. No credible evidence that this is a notable event. Even the mainstream press sources do not engage in any substantive discussion of the event itself, but are largely given over to presenting recipes for burgers. NewYorkActuary (talk) 20:04, 2 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
It's already there. How would you feel about a simple redirect? NewYorkActuary (talk) 22:14, 2 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Prefer a merge, per WP:PRESERVE. It is presently just a mention at the list article. North America1000 23:03, 2 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect as there are no serious needs for deletion but there are also no convincing signs of independent notability. SwisterTwister talk 03:38, 3 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
