This is not an encyclopedic topic. If it is a "form of afterparty," as the lede says, it could be dealt with in a section there, but that article is an unreferenced mess, as well. There is nothing specifically notable about a "late night dance party," no more so than a dance party at any other time of day. Delete as inherently nonnotable and nonencyclopedic.

- Merge any of the validly sourced content into the afterparty article. The only stated distinction is that there is dancing, and that can easily be covered in a section and does not deserve a stand alone article. Active Banana (talk) 01:11, 23 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. This article seems to be basically original research about a non-encyclopedic topic; the article doesn't seem to provide significantly more valid information than could be guessed from the title (apparently, a Late Night Dance Party is a party that involves dancing and takes place late at night). Furthermore, the article cites the statement "the movement began by making its way through students at the University of Georgia in Athens, Georgia in 2005" to an article which was published in 1993. Such a citation is inherently bogus. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 02:18, 23 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
