Storm on the Island (poem)[edit]
I have added a "{{prod}}" template to the article Storm on the Island (poem), suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

The article Bambakomallophobia has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- While I think this was added in good faith, it is likely to be a hoax, albeit one that a couple of newspapers have fallen for.
While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Cordless Larry (talk) 00:01, 15 January 2010 (UTC)
Bambakomallophobia deletion[edit]
Whilst i believe that it may not exist as a word as of yet, is there a word that describes the fear of cotton wool? is it not that a word must be invented if there isn't one available? Bambakomallophobia is as good a word as any, and by adding it to wikipedia, although it may not exist as a word at present, over time, with more and more use, it could become a word in its own right?

- The problem is that Wikipedia doesn't exist to coin or to promote the use of new words, as outlined at Wikipedia:Avoid neologisms. Wikipedia:Verifiability requires that material on Wikipedia be backed up with reliable sources, which the article lacks. If you want to contest the deletion, please feel free to remove the proposed deletion template from the article. I would then take it to articles for deletion, where it can be discussed further.

that makes sense, if words could be coined on wikipedia then, well it would just become a better managed "urban dictionary". in reality i don't really care about the word and i will not remove the proposed deletion. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rambatino (talk • contribs) 14:06, 18 January 2010 (UTC)
