[edit] Coffee snob

Coffee snob (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

This article seems to be a candidate for speedy deletion, but I can't figure out which category it would fit under. Sort of a cross of hoax, advertising, and nonsense. Gobonobo ^{T C} 09:25, 10 June 2007 (UTC)

• Delete as WP:OR with a dash of WP:POV. I suppose one could source an article, but would it be substantially different from a dicdef or snob itself? Although I note that article has no section for culture/materialist snobbery as the term is most often used today. --Dhartung | Talk 09:45, 10 June 2007 (UTC)
• Delete To quote a fellow editor, "this article lacks multiple, non-trivial sources". The current links are a blog, a forum and news article which bears little relevance to coffee snobbery as defined on this page. ŞůṜīΣĻ¹98¹^Speak 10:49, 10 June 2007 (UTC)
• Delete. Odd collection of original research intermingled with some trivial facts. Crucial conflations, like the title and entire gist of the article, do not have credible references. I know that coffee aficianados as described do exist, but extensions such as actually naming them as coffee snobs and the bit about the quirk in the Australian psyche need very specific references.

Absolutely, otherwise WP:NEO is breached. ŞůṜīΣĻ¹98¹^Speak 12:32, 10 June 2007 (UTC)

• Delete - WP:V, WP:NPOV, WP:OR, and WP:NEO concerns. Cool Blue^{talk to me} 12:32, 10 June 2007 (UTC)
• Note: This debate has been included in the list of Language-related deletions. -- John Vandenberg 14:44, 10 June 2007 (UTC)
• Delete. And if there's entries for other pop slang phrases such as "f*&k monster", "crumb snatcher", and "player hater", then delete them too.Piperdown 14:45, 10 June 2007 (UTC)

Fear not. Whatever a "fuck monster" is, it seems to have no Wikipedia page. (is that actually real slang...??) ŞůṜīΣĻ¹98¹^Speak 14:53, 10 June 2007 (UTC)

• Delete. This is 100% non-Colombian WP:OR. Now, excuse me while I go roast myself some Ethiopia Harrar beans. --Dennis The Tiger (Rawr and stuff) 19:46, 10 June 2007 (UTC)
• Delete. Definitely WP:OR with a dash of unrelated WP:TRIVIA at the bottom. This term is best treated in wiktionary MPS 21:33, 12 June 2007 (UTC)
