Creepypasta

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

Contested prod for a term even the article creator admits is a neologism. Sourcing consists of a news article that does not mention the term and a link to a web forum. Delete as per WP:V unless independent sources provided to establish verifiability. --Allen3 talk 18:11, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. Wikipedia is not place for silly 4chan's memes. Zero Kitsune (talk) 21:52, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete - Nothing to suggest this is even slightly notable. - Warthog Demon  21:53, 26 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete per above. Blaxthos ( t / c ) 22:51, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep As a topic, Creepypasta forms the basis of an acceptable encyclopedic article. By the way, there is an encyclopic article about 4chan on Wikipedia. --Firefly322 (talk) 00:17, 27 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Merge While the article in question, due to neologism, isn't appropriate for it's own article, I suggest we merge it with the 4chan article. That way we can keep the information. --Niyou77 (talk) 11:11, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete neologism. Nabla (talk)
