  • Delete, dicdef of a protologism with no evidence of having been used more than one person. Zero ghits. Weregerbil 13:20, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment. It's not spelled correctly, according to the explanation of the term's derivation, so if kept, it will have to be moved to Metaconomy. However, I would like to point out that this article was apparently nominated for deletion two minutes (!!!!!) after its creation. It's possible the article creator will be able to source and expand this, given a bit of time. —Carolfrog 20:52, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
  • My vote is move to Metaconomy and then redirect Metaconomy to Second_Life#Economy_and_real_estate, unless and until the concept of a "metaconomy" is sourceably applied more generally to economies in all role-playing computer games. —Carolfrog 21:38, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Note. I did notify the creator of the article about the nomination as soon as it was nominated, and since these discussions usually last five days he has plenty of time to source and expand notibility. War wizard90 23:53, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
  • delete - I tend to follow SL economics, and I haven't heard this term yet. Meta economy, on the other hand, refers to various ideas, none of exactly living within SL. In fact, SL is a level below any "meta economy" that may exist, and some explicitly deny it. Smmurphy(Talk) 22:57, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
