  • Delete neologism/POV fork of Anti-Bosniak sentiment. WP:POINT may also be relevant, given that the creator has edited Serbophobia previously and added an AfD tag to it after this AfD was created. Demiurge 21:44, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete original research neologism.--Húsönd 21:50, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete I can find no source of this neologism except this article.--Anthony.bradbury 22:03, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
  • DON'T DELETE Anti-Bosniak Sentiment can be merged into Bosniakophobia. It is very important that the term Bosniakophobia is represented! Read my reasoning bellow! Bosniak 22:15, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
  • DO NOT DELETE There is Serbophobia, and Bosniakophobia also deserves to be explored and written about. The use of this word is limited in English-written media, but is widespread in Bosnian media. This is not an invented word. In fact, if Bosniakophobia is invented term, then Serbophobia is also invented term, and for the sake of fairness, if you decide to delete Bosniakophobia, then please delete Serbophobia also. This article deserves a chance. It's still under construction, it will look much richer after a month or so when more users join in and contribute. There is no valid reason to delete this article. Bosniakophobia, or fear from and extreme prejudice against Bosniaks is a fact that must be dealt with.Serbophobia In the beginning, Serbophobia returned only 2 matches at Google. When Serbs introduced this word to Wikipedia, thanks to thousands of scrapper pages, Google now returns close to 3,000 matches (all copies of Wikipedia content). Serbophobia was also nominated for deletion etc, but nobody deleted it. Bosniakophobia should also not be deleted. Give it a chance, let other people join in and help the article. Let's work together and make this another great Wikipedia article. Bosniak 21:49, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
Note to closing admin: both of the comments directly above were posted by the article's author in a somewhat confusing fashion; I altered the format to keep the page readable. The text was not otherwise altered. --Doc Tropics Message in a bottle 22:44, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete as a fork from Anti-Bosniak Sentiment, which expresses the exact same facts in a more comprehensive manner. BigHaz - Schreit mich an 22:20, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete. With zero Google hits and no sources, a clear case of WP:V. Sandstein 22:20, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete Precisely zero Google hits and the topic is already dealt with under a descriptive title in Anti-Bosniak sentiment. // Еstavisti 22:39, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete - Patent nonsense, apparently only written to make a point. --Doc Tropics Message in a bottle 22:59, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete per nom and Demiurge. -- Jim Douglas (talk) (contribs) 00:10, 24 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Redirect to Anti-Bosniak sentiment, provided we can verify that the word "Bosniakophobia" exists in English. Otherwise delete. —Psychonaut 12:52, 24 November 2006 (UTC)
Comment: Zero google hits. The word didn't appear in Anti-Bosniak sentiment until User:Bosniak added it and, at the same time, removed Serbophobia. -- Jim Douglas (talk) (contribs) 00:38, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete per above. ReverendG 00:29, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete This user is implementing his own views. This word does not exist at all. The Bosnian Wikipedia is thinking of deleting it there as well. Such word simply does not exist. Wikipedia is not supposed to be a "web site" that invents new terminologies. Thank you, Vseferović 20:46, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete as per Jim Douglas. --Svetislav Jovanović 20:50, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

    • Comment this comment has been struck out as a duplicate of what Bosniak had already posted. Additionally, he had already "voted" to keep the article (twice, in fact). BigHaz - Schreit mich an 07:02, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete - as per nomination EuroSong talk 12:16, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Merge to Anti-Bosniak sentiment. Why should we have two articles (especially when one of them bears a far less notable name and is a lot lesser and poorly written). --PaxEquilibrium 15:14, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete as it doesn't even google !. Given Bosniaks are predominantly Muslim then I suspect it's really a fork of Islamophobia. Bosniak is simply appealing for people to do WP:OR to pad out the article. When someone notable works out how to pronounce it (thats a Bosniakophobia joke I guess !) and say it in public on notable media then it could be worthy. Ttiotsw 04:02, 27 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete per nomination. Nikola 22:37, 27 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete but merge the good information into Anti-Bosniak sentiment. Also, I think the word is "Bosniakphobia" not "Bosniakophobia" - thats if the word exists at all - Ivan K
  • Delete, and salt and take a good hard look at the author's other contributions. "Giveitachance" should be listed along with "Ilikeit" as reasons for instant deletion. --ElaragirlTalk|Count 18:33, 28 November 2006 (UTC)
