The result was   Speedy Delete per A5 - Transwiki'ed article. Article exists (almost verbatim) at Wiktionary. UltraExactZZ Claims~ Evidence 13:01, 28 September 2009 (UTC)

Also, a procedural note: The article was up for VFD in 2004, as noted by the nom, below. The VFD was archived at the article's talk page, which is now orphaned - so, the VFD debate and Transwiki notation have now been copied to Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion/Technomad for archival purposes. Thanks. UltraExactZZ Claims~ Evidence 13:05, 28 September 2009 (UTC)

This article is nothing but a dictionary definition that duplicates the entry on Wiktionary to where it was transwikied in early 2007. The talk page contains a copy of a VfD discussion in 2004, that doesn't have a clearly defined outcome listed that I can see but would be closed today as "no consensus". The only changes since the end of that discussion have been: So in the past five years (minus about 3 weeks) this has not been extended to anything other than a dictionary definition I can't see that it can be. As all the content has already been transwikied to Wiktionary that is not necessary this time. Thryduulf (talk) 11:45, 17 September 2009 (UTC)
 * The addition of more references that do nothing but note the existence of the word as no additional content has been added for them to reference
 * the addition of external links of varying relevance
 * The removal of an empty list of technomads
 * The addition of two see alsos
 * Various minor changes in what links where.
 * ps: People last time suggested that there could be an article about the concept, but I don't see that there is a unique concept beyond what is already in perpetual traveller, nomad, telecommuting and RV lifestyle. Thryduulf (talk) 11:48, 17 September 2009 (UTC)
