Indietronic
Another imaginary music genre. The bands listed as purportedly part of this genre are described with different terminology in their own articles&mdash;Wahoofive (talk) 23:59, 22 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. I don't know much about this, but "indietronic" gets 17,100 google hits.  "Indietronic" can be a real trend in popular music without there necessarily being many bands primarily identifying themselves by that label.--Pharos 03:05, 23 September 2005 (UTC)
 * 17,100? I got 706 -- Kjkolb 05:33, 23 September 2005 (UTC)
 * I did a general search in all languages, not just English. The term seems to be somewhat more common in some other European languages.--Pharos 05:44, 23 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Oops, I forgot I had the English only turned on. -- Kjkolb 06:03, 23 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Comment just because a portmanteau term like this gets used a lot, that doesn't necessarily make it worthy of an encyclopedia article; it just makes it a neologism and dicdef. &mdash;Wahoofive (talk) 15:57, 23 September 2005 (UTC)
 * If it can be expanded into a proper article, it's not a dicdef. And certainly it's not a neologism if it gets used a lot ··gracefool |&#9786; 07:53, 26 September 2005 (UTC)


 * Keep and expand - despite being bad portmanteau. --MacRusgail 18:22, 23 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep ··gracefool |&#9786; 07:51, 26 September 2005 (UTC)
