Petocracy

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Fractionally better than original research. No attempt made to demonstrate that anybody uses this term. Sgroupace (talk) 11:36, 27 February 2013 (UTC)
 * Comment The article is written like a joke, however, this is a searchable term: (The Times of India),  (telegraph.co.uk),  (The New York Times). I can imagine this could be rewritten. --Vejvančický (talk / contribs) 12:10, 27 February 2013 (UTC)
 * Addendum It seems it was created to promote the website http://gooddogsrule.com. The creator,, could be Drew Webster, the owner or operator of that site. --Vejvančický (talk / contribs) 12:23, 27 February 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete. The article was primarily written to promote a web community site. The term was used in a few lifestyle parts of newspapers. It's an easy to create ...o... word combination, often found today (Douglas Adams the inventor?) No evidence that the term has its own significance. So per WP:GNG.--Ben Ben (talk) 11:56, 3 March 2013 (UTC)
