A non notable neologism Martijn Hoekstra (talk) 23:04, 18 March 2008 (UTC)

  • Delete — As far as I can see this is just another neologism to consign to the scrapheap, as I can only see it used on blogs and such like. If there are reliable sources available with which to write an article with, consider this a keep. EJF (talk) 23:31, 18 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete — no worthwhile content in this one. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 02:48, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete, per WP:NEO. No real content. Belongs on Urban Dictionary. --Pixelface (talk) 02:50, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete per above. We really need a speedy category for for unsourced neologisms that someone made up one day. It's a waste of time having to go through AfD for something like this. JohnCD (talk) 10:40, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
    In this case, it was a prod contested by the creator. Martijn Hoekstra (talk) 19:14, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
  • delete - creator didn't give a reason for his contesting, did he? Anyway, I have found uses of the term (via a google search, ha ha); however, it seems to be spelt variously as "googleization", "googlization" and "googlelization". I don't think we'll find an encyclopedic treatment of the term when nobody even knows how it's supposed to be spelled, yet; I don't even see a general consensus as to its meaning. The article definitely doesn't explain it at all, as written. AllGloryToTheHypnotoad (talk) 18:38, 23 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete, sounds like something someone just randomly thought of to me, non-notable Izzy007 Talk 21:42, 23 March 2008 (UTC)
