[edit] Gafiate and Fafiate

a science fiction and fantasy fandom jargon term -- a humdrum dicdef of a term of trivial significance in the English language, and one that has already been transwikied. Superfluous to WP. -- Hoary 03:10, July 27, 2005 (UTC)

  • Delete, and also delete Fafiate, a redirect I created yesterday. Wasn't thinking. Tualha (Talk) 09:59, 27 July 2005 (UTC)
    • I've requested speedy deletion for Fafiate. Tualha (Talk) 10:15, 27 July 2005 (UTC)
      • For some reason, that's been removed. It remains a speedy, however, since you are the only editor. You might reinstate it, saying you are the only editor, and citing whichever CSD it is that allows this. -Splash 00:33, 28 July 2005 (UTC)
        • Thanks for the heads up. Tualha (Talk) 02:40, 29 July 2005 (UTC)
  • Merge into Science Fiction Fandom; which may need to have a discussion of fannish jargon, since these are widely used terms among fen (fanspeak plural for fan). Neither word (not even the two together) merit a wikipedia entry, even though I used a variation ("state of FAFIA") on my user page.- WCFrancis 18:01, 1 August 2005 (UTC)
  • Merge into Get A Life. The meanings have more in common with the term than with science fiction in general, though smaller references could be made at the Science Fiction Fandom page.--Mitsukai 19:27, 3 August 2005 (UTC)
