[edit] Troublefooling
Malformed nomination. Completing listing now. Original nominator was User:Jaberwocky6669. Suspect the reason for deletion was dicdef, neologism. Note: technical nomination only. No vote from me. ➨ ≡ЯΞDVΞRS≡ 21:20, 28 April 2006 (UTC)
I vote to DELETE because of neologism. I originially said because of original research but that is wrong. Jaberwocky6669 21:24, 28 April 2006 (UTC)

- Delete NN neologism --Deville (Talk) 01:04, 29 April 2006 (UTC)
- Delete. Not merely a neologism, but a badly-written, self-contradictory article. --die Baumfabrik 06:39, 29 April 2006 (UTC)
- So, let me understand this. First, Jaber thought it was non-original. He/she proved him/her-self wrong on that point, and Devill had to rescue him/her by inventing another excuse to stick to the Delete recommendation. Neologism? As in Savage_Love#Santorum, Metrosexual, Bling, Whale_tail, and innumerable others? These were all "neo" words before attaining mainstream. The fact that they are all allowed to live on wikipedia sugggests that "neologism" is a recently invented excuse for petty hackery. The Delete recommendation was made and approved in bad faith, and I am very curious as to the real reason: because you didn't come up with it first? And, Baumfabrik, your recommendation would have credibility if you could simply point out the "self-contradiction" you observed. iyaburo
