The result was delete. Although the term was mentioned in CSI and according to Zoe was explicitly called a "cuddle puddle" is an argument towards notability, but does not make the term verifiable or more than a neologism. Furthermore, at best as far as I can tell we would have nothing more than a dicdef. This deletion sets no precedent for an article on the same topic that is more than a dicdef and is well-sourced (presumably with the New York Magazine article). As it is now, the term seems to be too much of a neologism to meet WP:V. JoshuaZ 21:09, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

Cuddle puddle
Neologistic, unsourced, 800 G-hits but unable to find a reputible source that verifies the claimed meaning. Many hits refer to a New York magazine article about teen promiscuity that has nothing to do with the drug culture. Deprodded, tagged as possible original research. Over one month old yet the concerns of several editors have not been addressed. Accurizer 22:28, 4 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Stuyvesant High School. The New York Magazine article seems to have gotten attention, but if anyone want to write about this meaning of "cuddle puddle" (which seems the dominant meaning), it can be added to the Stuyvesant article.  --Allen 00:48, 5 October 2006 (UTC)

 * Comment, not a vote: The first episode of CSI this season showed a cuddle puddle party. User:Zoe|(talk) 22:48, 8 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete unless sources are found. This may be more appropriate for urbandictionary than an encyclopedia.  Friday (talk) 21:03, 9 October 2006 (UTC)
