I declined a speedy request on this, because it didn't strike me as an outright hoax. However, despite the number of Google hits on the topic, I'm not sure it can ever really be an article. SarekOfVulcan (talk) 16:43, 6 July 2010 (UTC)

Delete Looks more like a dictionary entry and not like an encyclopedic entry. Prsaucer1958 (talk) 16:47, 6 July 2010 (UTC)

There are so many shortcuts and acronyms on Wikipedia that we need a separate policies and guidelines namespace. --Timeshifter (talk) 22:32, 8 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Or maybe move to meta. Then of course there's always WP:BJAODN...  Tisane  talk/stalk 22:52, 8 July 2010 (UTC)
