- Highly dubious. Searching for " "iridium birthday" -SUNGLASSES -JOHNNY ROGERS " brings up exactly nothing in Google web, books, or images. Only addition by this anon editor. Suspect hoax.--Dmol (talk) 04:08, 9 July 2014 (UTC)
- Probably not a hoax, but most likely a protologism. I think the idea is: if there's a silver anniversary for 25 years and golden anniversary for fifty years, then you just have to come up with a substance that isn't in the lists for a number that isn't in the lists, and, secondarily, the same concept that applies to anniversaries must apply to birthdays as well. People add lame inventions like this all the time- look through WT:LOP and you'll find lots of them. Chuck Entz (talk) 04:42, 9 July 2014 (UTC)
- A protologism is a hoax for our purposes. Unless I suppose the creator freely admits they've coined the word. Renard Migrant (talk) 10:00, 9 July 2014 (UTC)
