[edit] Waxis

A google search for relevant terms (Waxis AND Wicker Park) turns up nothing. It appears this is a neologism that is not widely used. User:Kchase02 (T, C, e) 05:02, 18 May 2006 (UTC)

• Delete, at best a neologism, though it may be a hoax. "Deer antlers... and Ukrainian folk art" ... doesn't seem a likely combination. —ERcheck @ 05:32, 18 May 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per nom and ERcheck. DVD+ R/W 05:35, 18 May 2006 (UTC)

• Delete I could've sworn I prodded this last night, or CSD tagged it as patent nonsense... must've been something else involving antlers and Ukrainian folk art.Tony Fox 16:59, 18 May 2006 (UTC)

• Delete Either a neologism or a hoax. And it never came into "prominance" as the article says it did. Beno1000 21:32, 18 May 2006 (UTC)
• Delete nn neologism, possible hoax and unverifiable.--Jersey Devil 00:46, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
• Comment. Article says "The WAXIS style is easily recognizable and relies heavily on the use of deer antlers". Deer antlers? In Williamsburg, Brooklyn?! I thought I knew Brooklyn and found this proposal hilarious, until I found this. Could it be? Has the city of churches been brought so low?  :-/ Still, I fear this might be more guerilla marketing, this time on behalf of some restaurants. More research, anyone? There must be someone from Williamsburg section of Brooklyn (verifiably distinct from the author of this article) somewhere around WP...---CH 08:35, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
