Rachel Maddow uses it all the time. The 2nd quote is from last night: 04/17/2014, 1st story, 1m 17s – 1m 20s.

But is the 2000's the decade or the millennium? The obsolete term "noughties" similarly disambiguated the 1900's as the decade 1900–1910 from the 1900's as the 20th century. kwami (talk) 22:53, 18 April 2014 (UTC)Reply
You're expecting usage to make sense? It looks to me like a deliberately silly attempt to make the name of the last decade sound like those of the previous decades. Chuck Entz (talk) 23:00, 18 April 2014 (UTC)Reply
Our guideline recommends using web sources: "Usenet groups, which are durably archived by Google", etc. How is something archived by Google "durable", but something archived by WaybackMachine is not? What are our criteria? We could archive a few with WebCite. kwami (talk) 00:34, 19 April 2014 (UTC)Reply
We had a discussion about this not too long ago (see here). It is possible for a website to opt out of Wayback Machine and have all of its archives deleted. --WikiTiki8900:41, 19 April 2014 (UTC)Reply
This is not the place for a discussion about changing our policy. We are not WebCite, and when and if we start allowing citations from the web, we will most likely also have to increase our web citation threshold for inclusion. --WikiTiki8901:21, 19 April 2014 (UTC)Reply
You said "we will most likely also have to increase our web-citation threshold for inclusion", as if that were an objection. kwami (talk) 05:09, 19 April 2014 (UTC)Reply
Back in the early two-thousandsies I was briefly obsessed with the idea of using license plate numbers as messaging addresses. (2012-1-10) — This unsigned comment was added by Kwamikagami (talk • contribs).
Google Groups is a discussion forum thing that also serves as an archive of Usenet. Not everything in Google Groups is Usenet. I'm not an expert on Usenet, but I do know that Usenet group identifiers generally look something like "alt.language.latin", while that quote is in a group called "Buffalo OpenCoffee Club". --WikiTiki8906:11, 19 April 2014 (UTC)Reply
I haven't used usenet in ages, and my accounts have all expired. I'd have to reinstall the software just to scan it. kwami (talk) 04:51, 20 April 2014 (UTC)Reply
@Kwamikagami: As I mentioned above, I added one of the newspaper cites; however, you should not recreate failed entries without any new citations—those are speedily deleted, if you are unaware. J3133 (talk) 07:10, 7 October 2021 (UTC)Reply
I see several dead links, several bits of non-durable attestation and one cite, possibly from a print newspaper, regrettably behind a paywall. One can infer that the poetry cite is in print, but there is no link and a search gets us to Amazon, which has a customer review that refers to a section of a book of poetry that has two-thousandsies as its title. This needs more durable attestation, preferrably with visible context. At present, I can only confirm one. DCDuring (talk) 13:27, 7 October 2021 (UTC)Reply
