Decrepitude

Unnotable neoglism? Nonsense?  brew crewer  (yada, yada) 07:16, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete Either? Both? Does it matter, per WP:DICT? Someone needs edjamacation. Potatoswatter (talk) 07:30, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete, seems to be trying to be a Devil's WP:DICDEF. Obviously it's a real word and it is not being used as a neologism. This would be like having an article named Crap and starting out, Crap is how many people describe the global economy today..... --Dhartung | Talk 07:39, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment Not to mention that the sources do not corroborate the claimed usage. WP:HOAX or joke article at best. --Dhartung | Talk 07:42, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
 * I think that you are right. Pierre Vanpunstut is a joke name.  Vanpunstut is not a real name.  And just in case there is any doubt, I live in Vancouver and I've never heard the term used that way.  So let's delete this thing before the decrepitude sets in here.  --JGGardiner (talk) 23:51, 24 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete, a fairly obvious coatrack article pushing a PoV. The word decrepitude is not a neologism, or at least is well-formed.  I'd suggest a redirect to obsolescence, which is probably what anyone who linked it or searched it has in mind. - Smerdis of Tlön (talk) 14:11, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete per above.--Berig (talk) 16:50, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete Decrepitude has a well established dicdef as "weakness; infirmity." Too weakly sourced to satisfy WP:N.The title word does not appear in the online portion of the 3 refs. If it is in some non-viewable portion proponents of the article should cite the page number, to show this is verifiable. Edison (talk) 18:39, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete Not notability whatsoever and per the above statements. Z enlax  T C S 18:44, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:NEO. --Ave Caesar (talk) 13:31, 25 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. I agree with the previous observations. This article does not seem salvageable. AltioraPeto (talk) 18:42, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
