Unsourced neologism; quick google shows it is not in significant use, nor is it discussed in reliable sources. &mdash; Coren (talk) 15:47, 11 October 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete nonnotable neologism that started its life as a copyvio (see history). P HARMBOY  ( TALK ) 19:38, 11 October 2008 (UTC)
 * The term is not in current use, but I believe it is significant - see sources. A distinction should be made between popularity and significance. We present concepts, not words. Keep tekks (talk) 22:11, 11 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Note It doesnt matter if it is "popular" now, but at some time, the word had to be in widespread use.  Not singular, but widespread, which is one way to define "notable" and the most popular.  I just don't see that here.  As for "significance", that word isn't used here much, see WP:IMPORTANT for the failed concensus or WP:INTERESTING for a similar view.

 * Note The sources are reliable and independent. The lack of significant coverage on the internet is not an argument. The term was in widespread use by literary and new media theorists. tekks (talk) 22:53, 11 October 2008 (UTC)
