Rumonade

Sometimes I wonder what the point of a PROD is. An entirely non-notable neologism, which the article's creator claims is the fruit of his fertile imagination.TheLongTone (talk) 14:04, 3 June 2015 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete per A11: Obviously made up by creator, and no claim of significance. Blackguard  16:45, 3 June 2015 (UTC)
 *  Reluctant Keep Delete I did a Gnews search I found the term used in a Jamaican newspaper in 2013. I am not enamored of the idea that the encyclopedia is enriched by articles for every stupid beverage. To make things even wierder, I did a Gbooks search and found the term used, probably as pointed out below, due to an OCR error, in a Latin treatise from 1504, though I have my doubts that a rum and lemonade concoction is meant in the context. I think I need a Harvey Wallbanger or a Fuzzy navel. Geoff Who, me? 21:27, 4 June 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete - hardly any search results at all. Google told me 98, and this one has only 65. That's nothing. I'm pretty sure that Latin book from 1504 does not say rumonade. —Мандичка YO 😜 10:54, 10 June 2015 (UTC)

Bourbonade
I am also nominating the following related page, created by same editor, for the same reason as above:

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus. Relisting comment: Both Rumonade and Bourbonade are being considered in this discussion. North America1000 10:49, 10 June 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete I only find a passing reference to this drink in a Toronto Life article from 2010. It's non notable. And my head hurts. Geoff Who, me? 21:27, 4 June 2015 (UTC)

 * Whiskonade, Ginonade, Vodonade, Grapponade,...the potential list is endless.TheLongTone (talk) 13:58, 10 June 2015 (UTC)


 * Delete - no references, nothing indicating why this is notable.--Rpclod (talk) 14:23, 10 June 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete - unreferenced article(s) with no indication of notability. Wikipedia isn't a recipe book! Neiltonks (talk) 16:04, 10 June 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete both: Neologisms like this are going to trip up web searches, because the formation is way too easy. X+ade -- "petrolade," "cyanidade," etc., and then the shorter the loading syllable, the more likely there will be a hit, but this does not guarantee a duplicate usage of the term. It indicates someone else tripping over that formation. (The 1504 Latin book is almost surely an OCR error for an ede ending.) So, given the fact that Wikipedia long ago had the debate on recipes and concluded that it was not the place for recipes of any sort, delete. Yes, there can be a very few exceptions (Margarita), but they are excessively rare. Hithladaeus (talk) 16:43, 10 June 2015 (UTC)
