[edit] Neosophy

Appears to be link spam disguised as a dicdef. Delete. — FREAK OF NURxTURE (TALK) 09:42, Dec. 17, 2005

  • How about take the links out? Is neosophy not a valid term? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.118.181.83 (talk • contribs) 17 December 2005
    • Comment: if it is a valid term, it should be posted at Wiktionary unless there is potential for encyclopedic expansion. Hopefully we will find out one way or the other in the course of this discussion. — FREAK OF NURxTURE (TALK) 11:53, Dec. 17, 2005

  • Delete. Not in the Oxford English Dictionary or OneLook ∴ not a real word. —Caesura(t) 15:39, 17 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete neologism. --Fire Star 21:26, 17 December 2005 (UTC)
    • Consider further. A word is not a word only because it exits in the Oxford English Dictionary or OneLook, or Websters or CNN. We create with words and we creaate words for those things we wish to explore but have no language yet developed, but developing. Words are sound, pictogram, spelling, meaning, socially applied knowledge. —Preceding unsigned comment added by User:Johnenz (talk • contribs) 19 December 2005
    • Neosophy is a word. It is a Greek compound proper noun. It should be capitalized. It has lineage with two schools of thought from the early 20th Century.Theosophy and Anthroposophy. —Preceding unsigned comment added by User:Johnenz (talk • contribs) 19 December 2005
      • Neither is it in the Encarta World English Dictionary. --Fire Star 06:12, 19 December 2005 (UTC)
