Carmercial

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This was originally created by an obvious COI editor; only 1 of the sources even seems to use the term "carmercial". Per the article itself, a "carmercial" is nothing more than a "commercial for a car". There is no evidence that professionals or others consider this a special category of information; nothing here is different than general advertising concepts. At best this is an underused neologism. Unless there is clear evidence that this "genre" of commercial is somehow special, this should not have a stand alone article. Qwyrxian (talk) 02:27, 24 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete Nothing notable about the differences between car commercials and other commercials, simply, as Qwyrxian says, a list of general advertising techniques with the word "car" thrown in. Buggie111 (talk) 03:14, 24 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete Terrible WP:ESSAY, and everyone else in the world calls advertising for automobiles "car ads" or "car commercials". Also seems like very obvious WP:SEO bait.  Nate  • ( chatter ) 05:12, 24 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. The word "carmercial" is a pure neologism which can rarely be found with this meaning anywhere else. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 07:20, 24 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete This reminds me of the made-up slang that one finds on the urban Dictionary --Sue Rangell ✍ ✉ 21:27, 24 November 2012 (UTC)
