Proposed deletion of Sleepburn


The article Sleepburn has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * Neologism for which no notability is shown. While it could conceivably be useful, it is only when it is shown to be in widespread use, and this use is attested in reliable independent sources WP:RS, that there can be an article here.

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 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 will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

The problem
Basically, if something is totally new and not reasonably widely known, we don't list it. Someone may discover a method for extracting sun beams from oranges, but if he's the only person that knows this, or if he has self-published a book about it that has had no reviews (real reviews, not the things you find on Amazon), then we don't list it. When the necessary coverage is available, we will. Science magazines may give coverage to new things - we wait until they have done it. Also, Wikipedia is not here to spread new ideas, or publicise things. Encyclopaedias are not for that. They are stores of knowledge - of things that are known and verifiable. When/if your word becomes widespread, it'll probably be better put on Wikitionary unless it is shown to be a condition differing from normal sunburn because of the sleep element. We don't collect word definitions here - we prefer something that articles can be written about rather than single sentence descriptions. Peridon (talk) 11:35, 7 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Having looked at the link you posted, sorry, but while it gives good advice on sunburn, it doesn't mention your word or even the word sleep. References establishing notability must be about the subject itself or contain good use of the term. Peridon (talk) 11:47, 7 November 2012 (UTC)
