[edit] Disassociated Press

Seems to refer to a nn website (only ~600 ghits). ^hello,gadren 22:05, 11 June 2006 (UTC)

• Delete The use of the term is non-notable. Wikipedia is not a collection of phrases. The website is also non-notable, so this is a delete even for the website. I don't even think the information should be merged to another article. Ted 23:08, 11 June 2006 (UTC)
• Delete It is a common parody, but the article is very small and has a link to a NN website. Invitatious 23:40, 11 June 2006 (UTC)
• Merge into Associated Press. --Tango 23:55, 11 June 2006 (UTC)
• Keep and rewrite. The term is also used for a nonsense text generation algorithm based on the frequency of N-grams in a specific language. --Jim Henry 18:24, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

By "rewrite" do you mean a complete rewrite? If so, we might as well delete it until such time as someone actually wants to write a new article. --Tango 19:15, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

• Delete. No assertion of notability bar that it was once in Looney Toons. Batmanand | Talk 15:28, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
