Blog Farm

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Non-notable neologism. Most ghits return blogs related to farms, not blog farms. Delete. Blanchardb- Me MyEars MyMouth -timed 12:39, 15 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment You nominated this for deletion eleven minutes after its creation. Is this really fair? Nick mallory (talk) 13:19, 15 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Reply Yes. There is no consensus to have a speedy deletion criterion for non-notable neologisms, except in cases of blatant vandalism, which this is not. So I'm bringing this here. The five days or so it will take for the discussion to close will give you plenty of time to edit the article to establish its subject's notability if it has any. --Blanchardb- Me MyEars MyMouth -timed 14:03, 15 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. The neologism is fairly non-notable. The article should not have been created. Nomination is warranted, because the subject does not meet Wikipedia's inclusion criterion. --Evb-wiki (talk) 13:27, 15 December 2007 (UTC)
 * There are 3,000 google hits for "blog farm" "search engine". Google recently took steps to downgrade sites which it deemed to be artificially inflating their rankings through such blog farms.  There are also several firms offering 'blog farm' software and services to generate traffic to sites.  It's not just something made up by some guy one day last week.

 * Delete, it's a fair cop even 11 minutes after creation; it's not like any work on the part of the creator is going to make it more notable. Also, per WP:NEO.  Lankiveil (talk) 13:56, 15 December 2007 (UTC).
 * Merge/redirect to Spamdexing which seems to be the dominant article for this sort of thing. Colonel Warden (talk) 14:29, 15 December 2007 (UTC)
