Dirty subsidy

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

I came across this after I nominated Dirty Subsidy at Articles for deletion/Dirty Subsidy. My reasons are the same. The term "dirty subsidy" seems to original research, ie this is basically an essay using sources that don't use the term. It's interesting but we shouldn't be creating neologisms.

 * Delete original research promoting a neologism. FloridaArmy (talk) 12:34, 16 April 2018 (UTC)


 * delete obvious promotion of a neologism. Mangoe (talk) 12:35, 16 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete this and Dirty Subsidy unless there's some evidence that this is a term as defined that is actually being used as such. Yes, they're well-sourced, but the sources are in support of an argued premise, not summaries of its use. --Calton | Talk 14:53, 16 April 2018 (UTC)
 * , you'll have to vote at Articles for deletion/Dirty Subsidy to make your !vote count. Doug Weller  talk 15:56, 16 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Perhaps you didn't notice that !vote above is a (literal) cut-and-paste -- with one change -- from Articles for deletion/Dirty Subsidy, which I made 15 hours before your advice? I also came here because of YOUR response to MY second comment there. --Calton | Talk 16:37, 16 April 2018 (UTC)
 * , sorry, I'm rushing around today and these similar names obviously confused me. Thanks. Doug Weller  talk 17:01, 16 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete both articles per nomination and per Calton, and per Articles for deletion/Dirty Subsidy. The Mighty Glen (talk) 16:59, 16 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete both articles as original research (specifically, novel synthesis from published sources in favor of a neologism). Squeamish Ossifrage (talk) 17:06, 16 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete as WP:OR. Septrillion (talk) 22:14, 16 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete - neoligism/or. I'm !voting the same at the other article. Smmurphy(Talk) 14:20, 23 April 2018 (UTC)
