[edit] Soundseeing tour

Soundseeing_tour (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

This 'soundseeing tour' idea is not mainstream enough to be on Wikipedia. --Amanduhh 03:09, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

• Keep: [1], 6th paragraph down. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Simonkoldyk (talk • contribs).

• This AfD nomination was incomplete. It is listed now. DumbBOT 17:26, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

• Delete. Inadequate references. WMMartin 22:45, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

• Delete. Not widespread or dominant enough a term.--Dhartung | Talk 10:06, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
• Keep Added to the article citations showing use in the New York Times and the Baltimore Sun. Also "soundseeing" gets 240,000 Google hits, so it is a very common term used in relation to tourism and art appreciation worldwide. Museusm have long rented audio players for $5 to comment on the exhibits, now podcasts do the same thing free. Edison 15:31, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
• Weak Keep It's real, but I can't see how it could ever be more than what the article already is. Maybe merge into podcasting? --MECU≈talk 16:38, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
• Weak Keep or perhaps Merge per MECU. Another possible merger: Listing under Special forms of tourism in Tourism -- underneath or incorporated into the "Audio tourism" listing already present on that page. -- Antepenultimate 16:51, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
• Merge per Antepenultimate. Noclip 21:13, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
• Delete neologism, clearly falls under WP:NEO. Transwiki content to wiktionary and nuke it already.  ALKIVAR™ ☢ 10:33, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
• Keep per above, does not appear to fail WP:NEO. --badlydrawnjeff talk 12:05, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

• Comment. WP:NEO specifically states:

"We must cite reliable secondary sources such as books and papers about the term — not books and papers that use the term. Neologisms that are in wide use — but for which there are no treatments in secondary sources — are not yet ready for use and coverage in Wikipedia."

Seems clear that both references are merely instances that use the term, and are not dedicated to discussing the term, so... seems like a cut-and-dry failure of WP:NEO to me. I recant my vote for "weak keep" but still support merger, both to Podcast and Tourism. -- Antepenultimate 17:29, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

• Keep per Edison. NTXweather 01:25, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
• Merge to podcast as per Antepenultimate. Not likely to ever have enough information to expand beyond this stub on its own. A Train ^{take the} 15:24, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
