[edit] Generation Z

Generation Z (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) –

Generation Z (View log) No substantial information will be found currently; it's a stub, and it won't change in the nearby future. It adds nothing to Wikipedia. For Christ's sake, references 5 and 6 are links to the Generation Z camera. The only info it has is the time period of people in Gen. X and some "CLAIMS"!!!!!! This is nonsensical bollocks, and should be deleted as such. Kodster (Talk) 20:46, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

  • Delete Not quite nonsensical, but reads as original research/synthesis and seems to be a not-so-widely used neologism. (And here I thought "Generation Z" was a term for lazy people...) Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 20:57, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
Comment - if you think this is OR, take a look at Cold Generation Y - bollocks! Camillus (talk) 21:00, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep or Merge with iGeneration, Generation C, and Generation V which, like this term, are all terms for the generation born into an internet digital world. Further the second nomination was just closed as a keep. It's against the rules to immediately have another nomination. This nomination should be deleted. WAS 4.250 (talk) 21:26, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep definatly can be worked on, but dosn't deserve deletion.Coffeepusher (talk) 21:38, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep this one as an abusive renomination--the earlier ones are [1] closed just on Feb. 8 and [2], both closed as keeps. Then merge the articles on the same generation into whatever is the most widely used name. I think it is Generation Z, but that's just my impression. The sources for the other Generation C is really weak. The Internet generation article lists another half-dozen synonyms.. As they are all the same concept, one article will hold them. But if people keep doing renominations soon after keeps this way, wer should consider whether we should just make a rule disallowing them for the first 3 months, or whether we should regard it is attempts to disrupt orderly process.

  • Keep, as per DGG. It's too early to renominate, and I don't se anything in this new nomination that the first two don't have.--Ye Olde Luke (talk) 06:42, 14 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep this article does need to be expanded, improved, etc. But an article in need of improvement is not one that should be deleted. By nature, Wikipedia will grow and the article will grow with it.--Paul McDonald (talk) 17:36, 18 March 2008 (UTC)
