Fundamental Change and Relevance Gap
Follow on from Articles for deletion/Fundamental Surprise. Author contributes only to these articles, only 414 unique for "Relevance Gap", difficult to meaningfully google a phrase as generic as "Fundamental Change" but I am finding nothing that indicates this concept is anything other that an (old) neologism. Delete unless evidence that these phrases in this context are commonly used. brenneman {L} 00:32, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete nn neologusm. As with the last debate a redirect to Cognitive dissonance may be appropriate. Artw 00:45, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete nn neologusm. Also either original thought or perhaps copyvio from . (Saddly I don't speak Hebrew) --IslaySolomon 00:49, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per above. Also note that a search of "relevance+gap"+lanir (Lanir being the author of the cited paper) gets 0 google hits. &mdash; ዮም   (Yom)  |  contribs  •  Talk  •  E  02:02, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete In B-school we used to call this buzzword whoring. ~ trialsanderrors
 * Delete for buzzword whoring (Fails WP:NEO, rather). --Core des at talk. o.o;; 03:37, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. User has also contributed to the similarly-minded:
 * Situational Surprise and
 * Jointness.
 * All these articles cite the same cache of "white paper" material by one author, that makes me suspect original research. --DaveG12345 04:19, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment I prodded them both. ~ trialsanderrors 07:58, 6 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Keep fundamental change, Delete all others, the first/second person writing is a bit off, but "fundamental change" is a valid concept and the article explains it, and the article is rescueable. The others are crud. An "old neologism" that has caught on is not a neologism.—Pengo 09:14, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment Here's an article by someone with a bit more clout but I still want to see that FC is a clearly defined term rather than just a waffly concept invoked by different people to mean different things. ~ trialsanderrors 17:49, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
