Neologism unsupported by credible evidence ElKevbo 22:26, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

KEEP this is in the catagory of computer crimes and cyberbullying. it is notable and easily can be found on google. it is pretty much the same as a http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=internet+thug cyber gangsta http://www.google.com/search?q=cyber+gangsta&hl=en or cyber gangster http://www.google.com/search?q=cyber+gangster&hl=en or internet gangster http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=internet+gangster It is a developing article.

• Weak keep - Evidence suggests that this is a notable neologism for which a well-cited article could be written. This is not that article. For one thing, the very definition probably needs multiple citations - neologisms are highly susceptible to being interpreted differently by different people, and the last thing we want is to define the term according to one Wikipedian's OR. --Hyperbole 22:42, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

  Comment - I'd also support a redirect to cyberbullying per Dennis The Tiger, although I think there may be legitimate content that could be merged into that article. --Hyperbole 01:59, 6 November 2007 (UTC)

• Delete - With all due respect to Hyperbole, I disagree. I see little real notability here (although with the exponential growth of troll presence on Wikipedia, maybe a new definition is needed....) AKRadecki^Speaketh 22:54, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
• Strong delete. No reliable sources. Fails WP:NEO, badly.-h i s ^{s p a c e} _{r e s e a r c h} 23:19, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
• Redirect to cyberbullying. There's nothing to merge that isn't necessarily covered there. --Dennis The Tiger (Rawr and stuff) 00:11, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
• Redirect to cyberbullying. The subject isn't notable enough to justify having its own article, and no references are given. There's no reason to keep this article. — Wenli ^{(reply here)} 02:24, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
