Albophobia
del hopeless neologism introduced in France (fr:Albophobie) but has absolutely no prominence in English language. The article cannot be salvaged by renaming into something else because in its shortness of a dicdef it conflates two notions: reverse racism, 9a rather controversia l topic, which deserves bettter coverage than a section in "racism") and usual inter-ethnic animosity, which presents anywhere where two different ethnoses contact, but which is not normally called "racism". `'mikkanarxi 15:54, 29 November 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete - per WP:NEO and WP:Not a dictionary. This article doesn't offer anything more than a definition of a neologism, and doesn't offer any addition information or references. Jayden54 16:12, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete - per WP:NEO. A search for a definition of "albophobia" on Dictionary.com turns up nothing; "albophobia dictionary" on Google turn up multiple pages with "Grandiloquent Dictionary" listings on various blogs... definitely not reliable sources. "Albophobia" doesn't yield anything on thefreedictionary.com,MSN Encarta, yourdictionary.com, and Merriam-Webster Online. B.Wind 23:42, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment I was the nominator for the previous AFD. It came out in the discussion that this was the beginnings of a translation of the French Wikipedia article, and I withdrew the nomination, with the idea that we should wait and see what the whole article looks like.  I am also somewhat dubious as to whether the final result will be useful to the English Wikipedia, but the translation is clearly not finished; in fact, it now appears that the translator was confused by my efforts to prod and then AFD the article, and has stopped.  I think at the very least the article should be clearly marked as a translation in progress; it may also be time now to simply delete the stub and wait until some new translator gets interested.
