Desairology


dict def of a topic that has few Google hits Lars T. 23:55, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Expand or delete doesn't seem all that notable. Phyesalis 02:26, 11 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep Expand with sources and additional content but its notable in the fact this technique is used across the world in daily basis. scope_creep 17:05, 11 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. Currently the veriest definition of a dictionary definition, but has potential as an expandable article. Vafthrudnir 22:40, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

The article hasn't changed (apart from wikification) in almost 18 months, and checking Google again I found (as one of the few articles not related to the article itself): "Charest-Papagno … has gone so far as to coin terms—'cosmecare' and 'desairology' (from the words 'deceased' and 'hair')—to describe the brave new worlds she has been carving out since she first published her Handbook of Desairology for Cosmetologists Servicing Funeral Homes in 1980." Other hits are about that book only. I'll add "non notable" and "original research" to the reasons for deletion.Lars T. 00:13, 12 November 2006 (UTC)
