An 11-year-old outdated Italian neologism? Hmmmm. I think we have some WP:NEO problems here. Ecoleetage (talk) 00:27, 2 October 2008 (UTC)

The term is important in Economics, and still in use: see here or here. Jmgonzalez (talk) 04:23, 2 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete - 'surpass' isn't a noun, by the way; do any of our existing economics articles relate to this government-manufactured 'event'? Do any reliable statistical sources bear it out? AlexTiefling (talk) 12:27, 2 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep No reason to delete is provided by the nomination and the topic is evidently notable. Colonel Warden (talk) 17:00, 3 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep. I remember this being a widely discussed phenomenon in the UK when it happened, not just in Italy, and my memory is supported by the sources in the article and those linked above, as well as loads of book sources such as these:. I also rather suspect that this whole book is about the subject, given the publisher name and publication date. Phil Bridger (talk) 22:11, 5 October 2008 (UTC)
