If one Googles "Elon effect", the top hits have nothing to do with the @elonjet account but instead discuss Musk's impact on the price of various cryptocurrencies. I don't see much there to build a non-stub article but if there is, we might as well start from scratch because "Elon effect" is not, as the article currently suggests, used primarily to denote a variant of the Streisand effect.

- Delete - No sources suggest that the term is used in the way suggested by the article. Delete as original research. A change of scope may be warranted, but there is no indication that it would be long enough of an article to justify not editing a section about it into the parent Elon Musk article (with a title of "Effects on cryptocurrency markets" or similar) and creating a redirect instead. - "Ghost of Dan Gurney" ( work / talk) 21:55, 19 January 2023 (UTC)
- Delete Entirely made up. The Streisand effect is the correct term and that article exists. Lamona ( talk) 06:06, 23 January 2023 (UTC)
- Delete, there is not a lot of substance to the article and there has not been enough examples or relevance for it to warrant a wikipedia page write-up. HelplessBystander ( talk) 13:33, 23 January 2023 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: People, Journalism, and Popular culture. - "Ghost of Dan Gurney" ( work / talk) 17:21, 23 January 2023 (UTC)
- Delete or draftify/rewrite. The Elon Effect in the context of cryptocurrencies may be notable ( FT is RS, for example), but for inexclipable reason the author of this chose to apply this term to the jet tracking controversy... WP:TNT likely applies, ping me if some tries to salvage it. If the author asks for draftication, we could also do this.

- Delete - Clearly not notable. Term appears to be a meme/made up, little long-term impact, and clearly doesn't meet standards of notability. KlayCax ( talk) 16:49, 24 January 2023 (UTC)
