E-loyalty
dicdef, neologism that means precisely the same as loyalty without the fancy e- prefix. --Tony Sidaway|Talk]] 07:59, 4 Dec 2004 (UTC) Note: the following discussion took place after voting closed.
 * Delete, or possibly move to Wiktionary if it turns out to be less of a neologism than I think it is. [[User:MacGyverMagic|Mgm|(talk)]] 09:38, Dec 4, 2004 (UTC)

 * Comment No vote O hell. Why did I Google? 8520 hits, and they (shudder) mostly look relevant. Folks, meme-wise, someone ran this up the e-flagpole and I'm afraid the e-people must have e-saluted. There are even (shudder) books, like "e-Loyalty: How to Keep Customers Coming Back to Your Website" by Ellen Reid Smith, Amazon sales rank 202,752 which isn't great but puts it out of the vanity-press category. And another called "loyalty.com : Customer Relationship Management in the New Era of Internet Marketing" I'm e-fraid this is a legitimate new e-buzzword. You know how it goes. The last fad was eCRM and people sold a lot of books and seminars about it before enough companies actually tried it for the word to get out that it was bunk. So, now, eCRM is out, e-Loyalty is in... [[User:Dpbsmith|Dpbsmith (talk)]] 22:09, 4 Dec 2004 (UTC) P. S. That's no vote. It would hurt too much to vote "keep" on this one and I just ain't gonna do it.[[User:Dpbsmith|Dpbsmith (talk)]] 22:11, 4 Dec 2004 (UTC)
 * Alternative proposal: merge with Loyalty. Let's not fill this encyclopedia with trash just because thousands of marketing droids don't want to use the word "loyalty" any more. --[[User:Tony Sidaway|Tony Sidaway|Talk]] 23:23, 4 Dec 2004 (UTC)
 * The fad is already over. Redirect to customer loyalty, a sub-discipline of customer relationship management.  (And now I'm noticing that we have no article on customer loyalty.  Unless someone can propose a better redirect, I'll add that to my list of things to do.)  Rossami (talk) 18:47, 5 Dec 2004 (UTC)

 * E-rase this article. Strange neologism. --Improv 19:50, 8 Dec 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete, too widely used to be a neologism, but should be in Wiktionary instead. --MPerel 20:13, Dec 9, 2004 (UTC)
 * Merge with Loyalty or customer loyalty would be suitable. Wiktionary notion equally valid. The neologism arguments overlook that this was written in response to a requested topic. Above editor comments are overflowing with biases... does no-one notice this? Exchangesynergism 14:28, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
 * First, don't forget that the above comment is from the original author, just so y'all know. Second, I would have voted to merge it with customer loyalty, let it flourish, and split it out if it becomes substantial. Oh, and do you have a link to the request for the topic?  That would help your argument (with which I agree). ThinkingInBinary 00:17, 26 May 2006 (UTC)
