Republican Settlement

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This seems to be a neologism - the term "Republican settlement" is not used in either of the two sources linked, nor have I found it used in this sense anywhere else. Wikipedia is not for announcing new ideas - per WP:No original research: "If no reliable third-party sources can be found on a topic, Wikipedia should not have an article about it." Contested PROD.

 * Delete. Per nom, this seems to be a neologism - and one I can find no evidence of usage for. The 'sources' cited appear to be nothing but promotional material for an organisation that might possibly fit the description in the article. I can see no evidence that either the neologism nor the organisation even remotely meet Wikipedia notability guidelines. AndyTheGrump (talk) 21:48, 27 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete Non-notable neologism likely coined by the author of the article, with the same username as the website where he published it. § FreeRangeFrog croak 22:02, 27 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom & other comments. BloodDoll (talk) 22:14, 27 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete. The cited sources don't support the existence of "Republican Settlement" as a concept, nor can I find any other sources that describe this. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 03:18, 28 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom; as described this pretty much seems to describe a housing development or new-concept elderly care home in an unincorporated area, of which there are many already and not under this term.  Nate  • ( chatter ) 04:35, 28 July 2014 (UTC)
