Boomz

Unsourced neologism; Wikipedia is not a dictionary or guide to slang. PROD removed by IP. JohnCD (talk) 19:57, 9 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 20:39, 9 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete: Fails WP:N. Joe Chill (talk) 00:14, 10 October 2009 (UTC)
 * JohnCD notified me about the sources (which the AFD was in my watchlist), so I'll post more. I still think that this shouldn't have an article. I think that the article still fails WP:N because the article is nothing more than a dictionary definition. Joe Chill (talk) 11:10, 10 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Rescue and Keep I have added more details and some references to justify notability. Jolenine  ( Talk  -  My Contribs ) 01:00, 10 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Commment by nominator: that's better, and I will invite the !voters above to have another look, but I'm afraid it's still not good enough:
 * it's a neologism - see also WP:Wikipedia is not for things made up one day,
 * it's not an encyclopedia article, because it's about a word - a dictionary definition. You could try it on our sister project Wiktionary, but I doubt if it would pass their Attestation requirements,
 * certainly, for Wikipedia, blogs and Youtube are not considered reliable sources. JohnCD (talk) 08:26, 10 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete. It's a poorly-sourced dictionary definition. Even if it was properly sourced and it could be shown that it was a "notable word", it still wouldn't belong in Wikipedia. --Michig (talk) 08:35, 10 October 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete, non-notable neologism, not much to discuss. Hairhorn (talk) 13:08, 10 October 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete. neologism, WP:Wikipedia is not for things made up one day, possible Attack_page, plus more importantly see Notability - more specifically Notability is not temporary. At most, it warrants being merged to the Ris Low article as it is only notable in that context.Zhanzhao (talk) 10:31, 12 October 2009 (UTC)
