[edit] Metameaning

neologism that claims to be a branch of philosophy, but really just refers to one sparse website. Googling for 'metameaning' largely pulls references to the Wikipedia page or that web site. Sukiari 01:52, 5 February 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete Epistemology is the study of the meaning of meaning but it is sloppy to state there is actually a term for the meaning of meaning, which would be a recursive headache Ruby 01:56, 5 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete. Google yields mostly self-referential (no irony intended) and Wiki references. Hardly accepted, even for a neologism. --Kinu 02:01, 5 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete per all above. Royboycrashfan 02:50, 5 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete. This is basically an advertisement for a non-notable website. The article itself is superfluous, as (a) philosophers do not actually use the term 'metameaning', and (b) the investigation of the nature (or "meaning") of meaning is already covered in philosophy of language, semantics, and related articles.
