Disruptive Realism

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Contested prod. Article describes a neologism. The only source is from the person who invented the term and I am unable to find any other reliable sources.  TN ‑  X   - Man  12:53, 19 November 2008 (UTC) 
 * Delete - The man who coined the term would be here. However, its utter lack of use elsewhere (only in four books in a Google Book Search). The only extensive coverage is based on the coining of this term, so therefore I would suggest a merge to Dave Hoffer. Unfortunately, since he doesn't have an article, this isn't a viable option, so I have no other option than to delete. This passes WP:V and has WP:RS, which is an issue brought up by the nom, but it fails WP:NEO. D ARTH P ANDA duel 14:43, 19 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete The term is used by reliable third party sources only when describing how the term was created. It is not widespread or in common use so it fails WP:NEO.  Fails inclusion criteria for neologisms so must be deleted.  Theseeker4 (talk) 16:12, 19 November 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete. Coined this year, not in common usage, not written about. WP:NEO all the way.  gnfnrf (talk) 04:24, 24 November 2008 (UTC)
