Substition
del. nonnotable neologism. Don't be fooled by thousands of google hits: all of them aren typos for "substitution". mikka (t) 21:35, 26 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete self-confessed (and probably fictional) neologism. -Splash 23:31, Jun 26, 2005 (UTC)
 * '''Comment""" - How exactly do you determine whether a neoligism is "fictional"? Whether or not it appeared in publication within a work of fiction? Gemini6Ice 03:56, 27 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep this notable fictional neologism, failing that merge it with the book it comes from. Kappa 00:15, 27 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge with Thief of Time. Substition + Pratchett gets 11 Google hits. -- BD2412 talk 01:04, 2005 Jun 27 (UTC)
 * Delete, neoligism--nixie 03:15, 27 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge with Thief of Time. JamesBurns 28 June 2005 04:26 (UTC)
 * Keep Move to Substitious or, failing that, Merge with Thief of Time. It is a neologism with in-print usage and a useful meaning. However, its presence is not widespread (as is the case for most neologisms), and the mention of it being a typo for substitution is a valid point. BD2412's Google argument is very convincing of the word's notability or impact. Gemini6Ice 29 June 2005 05:37 (UTC)
 * Additional Googling - Substitious yields about 47 results, all of which seem to use it contrast to superstitious . I change my vote to the unstruckthrough text above. Gemini6Ice 29 June 2005 05:42 (UTC)
 * Merge and delete. --W(t) 30 June 2005 02:54 (UTC)
 * Redirect. I have already merged the article's content to Thief of Time. func (talk) 8 July 2005 01:30 (UTC)
