[edit] Bershon

Bershon (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View log)

I love this. Really. This is so a concept that needs a name. Too bad it's a neologism that's only defined in Urban Dictionary and has no real reliable sources to back it up. When it gets published in a major publication, we can restore the article. howcheng {chat} 18:31, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

  • Delete per WP:NEO. Only two of the cited sources even mention the term, and they're both blogs. Anturiaethwr (talk) 20:07, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete per nomination. If I knew the etymology I might well use the word. I enjoyed reading the piece about author photographs, which unfortunately does not mention it. Scratch it up to the many concepts (I've always advocated dúchas for "inherited temperament or personality traits") that ought to have English words but don't yet. If it catches on, the deletion should be without prejudice. - Smerdis of Tlön (talk) 20:42, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete, unreferencable nonsense.--Rtphokie (talk) 22:03, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete per nom. Blaxthos ( t / c ) 03:05, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete per nom. Bloggy neologism. Only mainstream "source" cited does not even use the word. -- Arthur Frayn (talk) 13:36, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Copied from Talk:Bershon: Although this may seem only an online phenomenon, it can be observed that it is a prevalent phenomenon in society, with prevalent sources citing its presence.--Bgnuf (talk) 08:42, 12 March 2008 (UTC) (howcheng {chat} 17:12, 15 April 2008 (UTC))
