  • Delete per nom. ---Charles 05:13, 25 June 2006 (UTC)
    • Comment. Just what, exactly, is this thing below? It was added by an anonymous user whose intentions seem highly questionable. Ok, it's gone now. ---Charles 05:15, 25 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep It is used by many in a game called Eve-online. --Murmus 05:23, 25 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep The term is used by many people in the MMO Eve-online refering to an incident that happend to one of the players Joe of Omega Corp. The incident happend as described within the article. Due to this it can hardly be considered meaningless. Note Sure it may be considered a new word. But refering to Leeroy Jenkins at this point which is widely used within the MMO World of Warcraft. This incident is an equal if not a greater screwup. --Assur 05:24, 25 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete: Textbook case of a neologism. There is no evidence that it exists outside of its narrow online world. No reliable sources exist, so for all we know this could be made up. --Hetar 05:39, 25 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete use of a word by many a) does not mean it is not a neologism, merely that it may not be a protologism and b) does not justify the creation of a page that is essentially a dicdef. Jammo (SM247) 05:42, 25 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete neologism from a game that hasn't spread beyond that community, and no way to know how prevalent it is there. Discussion page pretty much says it all. Fan1967 06:18, 25 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete Neologism that isn't used at all widely, article has little to no chance of expanding into something encyclopaedic. GassyGuy 06:32, 25 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete Neologism. I'm sure everyone at Eve Online uses the word as stated, but that says it all. Tychocat 08:22, 25 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete. nn neologism. *sigh*. It depresses me that the message at the top of this AfD listing is required. Batmanand | Talk 09:08, 25 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete, fails WP:NEO. --Coredesat 10:09, 25 June 2006 (UTC)

Comment Hate to tell you Batmanand. But no links are posted for this wiki anywhere. Only ones who have posted are Myself and Murmus who have both been working on editing this wiki. So I'm sorry to inform you that any attempt to slander the authors of this wiki are pointless. --Assur 16:27, 25 June 2006 (UTC)

I am not sure you understand what I mean. I was refering to the template at the top of this AfD - the big one that says that AfD is not a vote, that if you have been sent here as a friend then please do not vote-stuff etc. I was making no reference to you or any other editor.
