Duplication of material already present at Wiktionary entry. I can find no evidence that the topic otherwise meets WP:GNG (i.e. the suffix -kinesis doesn't seem to be the subject of works I can find). I'd suggest deletion per WP:N and WP:Wikipedia is not a dictionary. Ajpolino (talk) 19:54, 9 July 2019 (UTC)

 * Delete per nom. While this article possibly has a potential to become a more fully developed list-class article like List of phobias, in practice I could find no significant non-dictionary sources describing the suffix. Without in-depth reliable sources, the article fails WP:GNG and I cannot see any good alternative to deletion at the moment. Hence, delete. -- 21:16, 9 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete Most of the entries are unattested neologisms regarding superpowers that are nowhere near being notable as concepts – some (e.g. cocoakinesis) are just completely silly! The previous AfD reached no consensus, but most of the Keep arguments conflicted with WP:NOTDICT or asserted WP:ITSUSEFUL. –LaundryPizza03 ( d c̄ ) 21:19, 9 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete - Wikipedia is a not a rhyming dictionary. Bearian (talk) 18:18, 10 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:NOTDICT and perhaps also WP:INDISCRIMINATE. This is a list of unsourced, miscellaneous definitions without substantiative encyclopedic content, and most do not have standalone articles, also raising the question of which terms actually belong in such a list. Also, an extremely similar list exists at wikt:Category:English words suffixed with -kinesis (linked from the page linked by Ajpolino). ComplexRational (talk) 19:15, 10 July 2019 (UTC)
