- Delete. no redirect, as it's a typo, not a misspelling. -R. fiend 16:01, 15 July 2005 (UTC)
- Delete I like it, but it's sniglet. this is not a dictionary or slang guide. Friday 20:55, 15 July 2005 (UTC)
- Redirect per Radiant as typo/misspelling. Xoloz 15:44, 16 July 2005 (UTC)
- Comment: It seems to me that making a redirect sort of endorses this as a variant spelling. Common misspellings are fine, but someone finding "Meanderthal" leading here would probably cause confusion, just as Kozart redirecting to Mozart would. Also, apparently this does have a "real" meaning, it just happens to be a neologism and therefore unsuitable for Wikipedia. Someone looking up that neologism would be better served finding no result than this one. -R. fiend 20:10, 18 July 2005 (UTC)
