Okay I think that Watergate (as an event) needs a page (if only because the use of "gate" as a suffix) needs an origin
Any ideas on the page

An article about the "-gate" suffix being applied to scandals could definitely warrant an article, but not Watergate itself. It could be a similar thing, but about "-gate" in general:
Title: -gate (suffix)
-explanation
-short summary of watergate for background
-list of major examples w/ brief descriptions and links to relevant articles (donglegate, gamergate, etc.)

Okay I'll make the article about "-gate" then. Thanks for the outline
BTW I'll need some help finding the first ONLINE instance of a scandal with -gate on it.
Is this the article that you're looking for?
Having an article for "-gate" should be sufficient. As a meme/internet culture site, KYM should only have articles that discuss things that are on or directly related to the internet, or the effects of the internet on the world. Because Watergate was a pre-digital age scandal, there was no contemporary digital discussion surrounding it. For the purposes of this site, the "-gate" article contains sufficient information.
