Cyberbegging
Neologism supported by a 2003 CNN article. Something Million Dollar Homepage would be two years from now. No incoming wikilinks. -- Perfecto 05:03, 13 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. At most, merge this to Save Karyn, MDH's equivalent. -- Perfecto [[Image:Flag_of_Canada.svg|25px|Canada]] 05:03, 13 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep - Google search turns up 16 thousand hits with the term. — ceejayoz talk [[Image:Flag of Australia.svg|24px]] 05:17, 13 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Note: 384 unique pages in those 16 thousand. Karol 11:36, 13 November 2005 (UTC)


 * Weak Keep (and it should be expanded). Considering that we have articles on examples of Cyberbegging (savekaryn for example), and the number of hits, I feel that this is a word that will continue to exist. It's a social phenomena, much like the freeipod.com crazes, and as such, should likely have an encyclopedic analysis. The phenomenon predates Save Karyn, and thus should not be integrated into her page... her page should likely be integrated into Cyberbegging? Just a thought. Janet13 08:11, 13 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. I rewrote this the other day and it could still use some work, but there is no reason to delete it as far as I can see.  s p l i n t a x  (talk) 09:46, 13 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge to Begging. Karol 11:36, 13 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge and Redirect, per above. I agree that the term is gaining currency, but that, by itself, would only lead to a Wiktionary entry.  Since we already have some discussion, in Begging, we should keep the material together. Geogre 13:15, 13 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep Concur with Janet13, it's weak, but could become a worthwhile article Astaroth5 15:37, 13 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep encyclopedic. --Mateusc 15:48, 13 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge to Begging, as per Karol above. Laszlo Panaflex 19:18, 13 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete Non-popular internet slang. Coolgamer 21:02, 13 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. per mateusc. -- WB 22:58, 13 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge as per Karol. Ejrrjs | What? 23:33, 13 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Comment. Save Karyn is the only example we have on Cyberbegging; and the three sites in the article are AfD candidates: "link:" Google searches on them produce zero results. -- Perfecto [[Image:Flag_of_Canada.svg|25px|Canada]] 01:31, 14 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge per Karol. Can always be broken out later. D e nni &#9775; 04:27, 14 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep. I'm pretty tough on neologisms, but this one seems to have raised its head out of the murk and into recognizable and verifiable popular culture. Article needs a lot of work. MCB 06:02, 14 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge and redirect as above. Neologistic now, but when it comes into widespread use, we can easily break the article out and recreate it as something more than a dictdef and list of links. Saberwyn 04:51, 18 November 2005 (UTC)
