Geniusology

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

A neologism coined by Andrei Aleinikov, article author has no history other than writing about and linking to the work of Aleinikov. Most of the sources for the article are Andrei Aleinikov, some are "independent" in the sense that directories you pay to be in are "independent". Overall,this looks like a transparent attempt to promulgate a neologism. Guy (Help!) 23:11, 18 November 2017 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Merge to Genius. The subject was studied by many researchers, however keeping this page for a non-notable neologism attributed to a single hardly notable author does not make sense. My very best wishes (talk) 04:13, 23 November 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete -- largely WP:OR on a neologism that is not yet encyclopedically relevant. I don't see anything in the article that is suitable for merging to Genius; any such content would be WP:UNDUE is the suggested target. K.e.coffman (talk) 21:18, 25 November 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete, do not merge. Nominator's description looks accurate to me. Merging this content into Genius would be a disservice to that page. — Gpc62 (talk) 06:30, 30 November 2017 (UTC)
