• Keep or Merge What are these acronyms you people are using?! The term is a neologism, but so is "internet." The greeting is a highly standardized and widespread custom in certain social groups. We have an article on the V sign. Why not one on the hug? (Sorry, forgot to sign) Haiduc 00:21, 25 September 2005 (UTC)
  • Comment: dicdef = dictionary definition (as opposed to an encyclopedic article); nn = non-notable. I don't know that the term "hip-hop hug" is in common use (only 450 Google hits) but it does appear to be in use (see [1] for example). --Metropolitan90 23:25, 24 September 2005 (UTC)
    • Thank you. It is to be hoped that the article will grow beyond its "dictionary definition" stage, right now it is just a rudimentary stub, but is not how a lot of articles start out? Haiduc 00:21, 25 September 2005 (UTC)
