Htmleet
Neologism. I get about 5 unique pages googling for "htmleet" and 2 for "html337". None of the pages use it in text, just filenames or the like. &mdash;Bunchofgrapes (talk) 00:03, 28 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete- Wikipedia is not a lexicon of leetspeak. Reyk 00:11, 28 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete - I've never seen it used in my life.. looks to me like a concept a group of friends thought up, and think is cool. 9cds 00:32, 28 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Comment: As I suspected, its correct name is different. It should be Html Leet: Google returns 450,000 matches for Html Leet. Some of the links: Used in a fellow named Adam's diaryland entry, Some message board post, "HTML Leet and other sense of stump have, this language is probably the hirnrissigste form of elite:d.".  However, in saying that, of the 450,000, unless google is acting up and not displaying things properly, it seems like the majority of them are just ending in .html with leet the next word.  But those two references that I did find seemed to back up the article.  So perhaps move to Html Leet.  But then again, I can imagine leet speakers using this term more, so maybe keep it here.  I am not sure at this stage. Zordrac 02:09, 28 November 2005 (UTC)
 * The first link you have there says "(and this also provides a welcome opportunity to try out my newfound html leet skills)" -- in other words, his newfound elite html skills. He's not referring to "html leet" as an entity in of itself. Your second reference  is a machine translation of a German message; it's just garbled gook. &mdash;Bunchofgrapes  (talk) 02:28, 28 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Seems to be a non-notable neologism. The use of bogus pseudo-HTML, often sarcastically, in messages is about as old as HTML itself, anyway. *Dan T.* 02:23, 28 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete and put whatever is salvageable into Leet_speak. Peyna 04:21, 28 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete - thanks, Zorrdrac and Bunchofgrapes, good spadework. If this is a notable neologism, this is not the right spelling,  and if it is notable it should be in Leet speak not here. Just zis Guy, you know? [T]/[C] (W) AfD? 13:03, 28 November 2005 (UTC)
