The result of the debate was keep but with qualifications. The general recommendation is that this should become a redirect to edutainment, an article which is currently much smaller than this one. And while I agree with user:TheoClarke that edutainment can be considered a neologism, it is far better known and in much wider use than this hyphenated phrase. However, that is properly a decision to be dealt with on the respective Talk pages. I will mark this with a "merge" recommendation and trust that future editor/readers will sort out the best long-term answer. Rossami (talk) 06:52, 13 Mar 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Entertainment-Education
Refers the process of putting educational messages in entertainment. Sounds a bit like a dicdef, but it may have potential for expansion. Or should it be merged somewhere? No vote as yet. Radiant! 13:17, Feb 24, 2005 (UTC)
- Merge and Redirect to edutainment. --InShaneee 18:23, 25 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. Nobody calls it "Entertainment-Education". It's either "educational entertainment" or "edutainment". — Gwalla | Talk 03:14, 28 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- 'Merge and Redirect to edutainment as well. A google search does reveal that it is stll called entertainment-education, but a google search just barely scratches the surface. Jaberwocky6669 21:10, Mar 7, 2005 (UTC)
- Redirect and merge any useful content--nixie 01:21, 10 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. I have expanded this to make it more encyclopaedic although it remains stubby. Edutainment is just one of several neologisms for this topic. --Theo (Talk) 00:06, 12 Mar 2005 (UTC)
