This challenged WP:PROD seems to be a WP:Neologism. Google gets 11 distinct hits, several of which refer to the article. Sourcing added does not conform to guidelines. Moonriddengirl (talk) 01:56, 2 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete: Per nom. Can't find many reliable sources for this term, outside of some vague descriptions.  Seicer  (talk) (contribs) 04:41, 2 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Redirect and possibly merge content to cuy.--h i s  s p a c e   r e s e a r c h 13:06, 2 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom and WP:RS. Additional data on the notability of the term might be helpful, but a merge to cuy does not seem unreasonable. ZZ Claims~ Evidence 13:59, 2 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Redirect to cuy with specific mention of this use (in addition to the other guinea pig references).SkierRMH 01:21, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment Just as a general question, can anybody supply any evidence that this term exists in the context described? I can well imagine that a roadside delicacy might be rare, so Google is not the final word, but it seems like there might be more than seems to be out there. Given that the article was created by a SPA with the username of Kpuerqueno, I am a bit curious. (The PROD was also challenged by a SPA. And I note with some interest that the second source the PROD contester offered within the article—neither of which are reliable—leads to a blog maintained by "Kelsey (and Aaron) Dos Puerqueños" Given the name of the article's creator, it does make you wonder.) If we're going to merge it, I think we need some sort of verification. It may be out there, but I haven't been able to find it. Of the now 13 distinct hits that I find through google, these five are the only ones that don't refer back to this article: this bulletin board, which seems to refer to a sporting event; this bulletin board, which seems to as well; same with this one; this bulletin board uses the term in recounting a newspaper article about a sporting event; this one may be about food, although it's fairly incomprehensible to me. Trying the term without the accent only brings back 4 hits, all of which refer to Wikipedia. My Spanish is nowhere near good enough to validate what those bulletin boards are saying, but they don't seem to me to offer any support for this usage of the term. SkierRMH, evidently you speak Spanish. Can you make sense of them? --Moonriddengirl (talk) 02:18, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
