[edit] HYPSM

HYPSM is not notable. Since I know that someone voting will surely bring up this issue, the difference between this and HYP (universities) is that the term HYP is actually used as the name of sports meets events and can actually be found in printed text. Furthermore, 24.6.253.95 created the HYPSM article, claiming in the edit summary that "a google search on HYPSM will verify that this is a commonly used abbreviation". Well, here's a Google search for comparison:

• "hypsm AND (harvard OR yale OR princeton OR mit OR stanford)" - 179
• "hyp AND (harvard OR yale OR princeton)" - 24000 25800

Also note the mentioning (I cannot tell if these are jokes or not) of articles for HYPSMC and HYPSMCCC on Talk:HYPSM.

• Delete. For the same reasons as those given by Lowellian, which I first expressed ten days ago on Talk:HYPSM. —MementoVivere 03:25, 27 Apr 2005 (UTC)
