The Big Wednesday Lifestyle

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Neologism with absolutely no supporting evidence that this has entered the New Zealand phrasebook. Googling gives a single blog comment, and I've certainly never heard it uttered. While it might eventually become notable, until it is reported as such in reliable sources, there is no place for it on Wikipedia dramatic (talk) 03:44, 9 August 2009 (UTC) *Merge to Gambling in New Zealand. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 23:33, 9 August 2009 (UTC)

 * What's to merge? An unverifiable dicdef? There is scope to add a description of the Big Wednesday lottery to the gambling article (I sort of ran out of steam when writing the lotteries section there), but that has little to do with this article. dramatic (talk) 00:17, 10 August 2009 (UTC)
 * I s'pose you're right but merging would leave a redir (a good thing) and what little substance the article has can be added to Gambling in New Zealand. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 21:08, 12 August 2009 (UTC)
 * The problem with a redirect is that this is not a widely used term. A hatnote at Big Wednesday would be appropriate, since that is the name usually used.- gadfium 22:23, 12 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Ah. OK. Will Change my stance. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 23:59, 14 August 2009 (UTC)


 * I did suggest a merge, but the article has little substance beyond repeating advertising, and it's under an unsuitable title which is unlikely to ever be searched for. Delete.- gadfium 23:48, 9 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom and above comments. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 23:59, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
