[edit] Power word

Neologism. There are a ton of sites that use the term "power word" but none that use it in the sense used here ("a form of loaded language"). 216.131.220.133 01:02, 18 Mar 2005 (UTC)

• Rename. -- Change to "Loaded language". It's a useful collection of words and phrases. — Xiong (talk) 22:07, 2005 Mar 18 (UTC)
• Rename. Unless someone posts some better arguments for this page here, then I will reconsider my vote. --Grouse 01:17, 19 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Move to loaded language. Scratch that, we already have loaded (language) and loaded language should refer to the same article. This article needs a new title, but "loaded language" isn't it. This is more specific. — Gwalla | Talk 01:25, 24 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• This may be trivial, but the concept of 'power words' is valid (if minor) in D&D and the Amber Diceless role playing game. If this gets renamed (which sounds good) the original title might disambig or redirect or something. Radiant_* 14:10, Mar 24, 2005 (UTC)
• Merge to loaded language, then either redirect there or disambiguate per Radiant!'s suggestion. -Sean Curtin 02:13, Mar 26, 2005 (UTC)
• Merge as above w Sean Curtin. (Sam Spade | talk | contributions) 18:44, 31 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Merge. Good content, but duplicated. Chamaeleon 01:00, 4 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Merge, per Sean Curtin's suggestion. -Willmcw 18:56, Apr 8, 2005 (UTC)
