Is crackle used in any real-world application?? Georgia guy (talk) 23:12, 15 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Redirect. It is a term used in a very minor academic context. There are a few refs in the first afd which demonstrate the term exists, however the information appears to have been 'plucked' from academic texts and not from a body of text that establishes notability. In short there are millions of scientific terms like this. Redirect and give a few sentences. Szzuk (talk) 07:35, 16 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Listify ~ Redirect. I see this as a case of borderline notability in which there is mention of the term among others in published literature but not a focused treatment of the topic in said literature.  The same can be said for numbers in special series (e.g. 123456789); in each case there is the potential for an inexhaustible supply of values (e.g. sixth derivative, seventh derivative, eighth derivative) and the individual notability of the specific value is inextricably tied to the notability of the series.  Listification should address all of the values in the series in some fashion, and it should preserve the full information content existing in the presently nominated article. --User:Ceyockey ( talk to me ) 15:21, 16 April 2011 (UTC)
