Poccia
Rather blatant hoax by two anons with similar IP addresses whose only other edits are racially offensive vandalism. Yelyos 03:16, August 14, 2005 (UTC)

Sorry, I didn't log in yet, mostly due to the fact that I'm not obsessed with/center my life around Wikipedia. This is a very offensive word used at my university, and I want people to know it around the world. DrkLrdBill 03:18, August 14, 2005 (UTC)

The word Poccia is a mid-western term that is used to describe a very lethargic individual. I am offended that Yelyos thinks it is a hoax. Reinman316 03:21, August 14, 2005 (UTC)
 * These are this user's first and second edits respectivly. See contributions. Sasquatch   &#35762;  &#30475;  03:37, August 14, 2005 (UTC)


 * Delete. Poccia is a fairly common surname. I can't find any evidence that it's used as a slur. Pburka 03:32, August 14, 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. After a quick googling, nothing comes up, WP:V applies here. Sasquatch   &#35762;  &#30475;  03:34, August 14, 2005 (UTC)


 * Do Not Delete. I don't know what idiot would talk about a Poccia on his website.  There would be no reason that Poccia would be found on google.  Also, do you live in the mid-west?  are you a college student?  How do you know that when I see someone not doing their work i DONT say, hey, quit being a Poccia and stop playing video games.

 * The problem is, you need to prove it somehow... again, see WP:V. As far as we can tell, its just a common name based on Google hits. And as it's not in any dictionary, we can't verify this information... Therein lies the problem with this article. Sasquatch   &#35762;  &#30475;  03:44, August 14, 2005 (UTC)


 * Do Not Delete. These are his first two edits, because we realized how urgent the need was to spread the word of Poccia. How would you like it if your son was at a party and got called a Poccia and thought it was a compliment? THEN who would be the laughingstock? DrkLrdBill 03:42, August 14, 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. DrkLrdBill's comment demonstrates that the term is not yet notable. Wikipedia is not the place to spread the word - we only cover the word once it's been spread. Cheers! -- BD2412 talk 03:52, August 14, 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Is there a full moon?  Where is all this BJAODN coming from?  JDoorjam 03:53, 14 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete unless advocates can provide clear evidence that this word is used as describe. ManoaChild 05:22, 14 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete neologism. silly. Hamster Sandwich 08:00, 14 August 2005 (UTC)

 * Hoax. Delete, candidate for speedy deletion as vandalism and an attack page. - Mike Rosoft 18:08, 14 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Speedied as an attack page. What a waste of keystrokes. --jpgordon&#8711;&#8710;&#8711;&#8710; 21:58, 14 August 2005 (UTC)
