[edit] Cognitive orthogony

Neologism invented for an academic paper. Author of said paper, Stephen Terence Gould, is presumably the author of the article, User:Stgould. Stephen: please mind the notice on the WP editing pages that says "Don't write about yourself". Delete Wile E. Heresiarch 04:42, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

• Delete agree with nom. TheRingess 04:43, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per nom. It's a shame because the writing style is so accessable: "An orthogony is an orthogonal-like or pair-wise relationship expressed in simple-power terms." --IslaySolomon 04:47, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete I think one would expect more than 6 google hits for a term of sufficient usage to merit an article. Tyrenius 04:49, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete The Postmodernism Generator usually does a better job putting meaningful phrases together. Opabinia regalis 05:20, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete because if semanticist dematerialism holds, we have to choose between dialectic libertarianism and subtextual narrative. Oh, and WP:AUTO. ~ trialsanderrors 05:40, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per nom and, inter al., Trials, to whom someone somewhat less lazy than I should give a barnstar for humor. Joe 05:45, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

• Delete per nom. --Tdxiang 07:08, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, non-notable neologism. --Coredesat talk. o.o;; 07:51, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete I have a bit of academic experience and couldn't pull anything out of that other than it has something to do with how men and women remember things differently. That, and the fact the term seems to have been made up by the author. Ace of Sevens 14:33, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
