[edit] Biosingularity

Neologism. Google brings back lots of hits, but this mainly seems to be because it is the name of a blog. Of the non-blog hits many seem to have divergant meanings for the term. Artw 15:27, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

• Strong Keep a stub on a significant issue that will be of growing interest to the Wiki community. Strange lame reason given for delete, are some of you even trying anymore?--Rhooker1236 16:11, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
  • The reason is far from lame. It is, in essence, that this is original research, in violation of our Wikipedia:No original research policy. That is one of the primary reasons for deleting articles, per our Wikipedia:Deletion policy. If this is a "significant issue", then you should be able to cite sources on the subject of biosingularities. Please cite sources. Uncle G 16:57, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. Transwik to Wiktionary. There doesn't appear to be much more to say about it here without going into "crystal ball" territory. Kafziel 16:29, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
  • This word is not used in running text anywhere, as far as I can see, and fails to satisfy Wiktionary's attestation criteria with a resounding thud. Uncle G 16:57, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
    • Fair enough. Changed my vote. Kafziel 17:08, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete The blog's author indicates that he/she coined the term. This is a neologism whose article facilitates linkspamming the blog. Unless the word can be shown to be in more widespread use, it should be deleted per WP:NEO.--Chaser T 16:42, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
• The article cites no sources, and I can find no sources describing the purported concept of a "biosingularity". This is original research. Delete. Uncle G 16:57, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per WP:NEO - whoa WilyD 17:17, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete as neologism (and multiply defined, with different meanings, at that.) — Arthur Rubin | (talk) 18:38, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
