The result of the debate was speedy delete as a combination of three criteria: vandalism, short article with no context, and attack page. Although each criterion is only weakly satisfied on its own, I take the view that in combination they warrant a speedy deletion. The article purports to give the expansion of an acronym that was coined (by my clock) just over an hour ago. Reviewing its history, I see that the article appears to be the fallout from a war that has spilled over from some other place into Wikipedia, as several versions of the article are attack pages on some pseudonymous people on some discussion forum. Clearly, Wikipedia is being mis-used as a public scribbling board by some discussion forum participants to write attacks on one another. For future reference, I also note that expansion of acronyms into phrases is dictionary article territory, and Wikipedia is not a dictionary. Uncle G 09:26, 29 January 2006 (UTC)
