Cold Y Generation

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Articles and references do not establish notability. Neither the business week article or the wordpress blog article even mentions the term Cold Y Generation. The only reference that does is an opinion column from the CBC website. The Google Scholar and Google Books search yields nothing. Google news only shows the one opinion piece.

 * Keep – A real shame that this article has lived a life going from a lot to almost nothing. I think that is what happened last time it was deleted as well. Plenty of stuff about this in the relevant litterature but actually finding references online is more difficult. --Law Lord (talk) 01:46, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Umm..nowadays the "relevant literature" would have shown up on a Google scholar search, but it did not....I dont think it exists.... Nasa-verve (talk) 15:55, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
 * I disagree 100% with you. Your faith in Google searches is not promising, I think. --Law Lord (talk) 15:15, 30 August 2009 (UTC)
 * You are more than welcome to post some info on this literature. Authors, publishers, titles, ISBN numbers (or pages of articles in scientific magazines). Google search is no infallible, but without any info to actually check your claim that the literature exists, it remains a claim without strength in keeping the article.

 * I agree. --Law Lord (talk) 05:59, 31 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Merge any useful content into Generation Y. -- &oelig; &trade; 02:37, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete. Article challenged lon,g ago already. No reliable independent sources to support this, so it is a neologism, an unrecognized sociological term. Fram (talk) 06:23, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
 * delete - neologism. Very few reliable sources. Peregrine981 (talk) 10:00, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Merge any info into Gen Y. Not notable enough to have it's own article-yet. bob bobato (talk) 17:18, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
