I'm the author. I just noticed that "Generation Catalano" already exists which Xennial is another term for. Should these instead be combined?CrescentHawk (talk) 17:36, 21 May 2015 (UTC)


 * I vote for the article to be deleted. The terms "Generation Catalano" and "Xennial" are not commonly used; the same can be said for Generation Jones. "Xennial" is not a term that is quoted from a highly reputable source such as a major newspaper or magazine, and it hasn't caught on with the general public.

 * If you are using Generation Jones as a precedent, its been an established entry for over a decade here. Moreover, the concept of the sub generation group in question was also noted by Slate, a subsidiary of the Washington Post. (I'm more interested in the concept than the term used, hence a vote for *Merge CrescentHawk (talk) 00:10, 23 May 2015 (UTC)
 * I'll just add that the term was referenced by the Huffington Post as of today as well. CrescentHawk (talk) 16:10, 26 May 2015 (UTC)

 * Merge with Generation Catalano. is the only cited source to use the word "Xennial" more than once and that's not enough to be notable. Generation Catalano seems to be notable and any unique content from Xennial can be integrated there. — Bilorv(talk)(c)(e) 17:50, 6 June 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete - non-notable and barely used WP:Neologism, the Huffington Post source is a blog entry, and a copy of the same blog post published 4 days earlier at mashable.com (source # 1). The word is already mentioned at Generation Catalano, no need to merge anything. Kraxler (talk) 17:20, 14 June 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete as it is not notable. Heyyouoverthere (talk) 19:13, 14 June 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete Basically just a made-up word, not notable, fails WP:GNG. Joseph2302 (talk) 00:16, 19 June 2015 (UTC)
