- Delete, I am from Australia and have never heard it. It's a neologism and if it is actually used, it's too minor to be on wikipedia. James086 11:30, 13 October 2006 (UTC)
- Delete. Unreferenced neologism, no indication that it is a notable term. --NovaSTL 23:51, 13 October 2006 (UTC)
- Retain The term 'noot' is used by an exclusive South Australian sub-culture, and naturally, a user from Western Australia would not have heard of this term. I had expected Wikipedia to cater for all groups, even a relatively small one, as in this case. We are outraged that genuine, factual information is being deemed "too minor to be on wikipedia" by a user who clearly has no knowledge of our culture. Thank you. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.87.118.49 (talk • contribs) 05:23, 14 October 2006
- Retain I too, am from Australia and familiar with the term noot. While not having been personally involved in such scenarios, I can vouch for the validity of this wikipedia contribution. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.23.22.151 (talk • contribs) 05:38, 14 October 2006)
- It's not about personal vouching, it's about verifiable references. Can you point to any credible publications, which verify the notability of the term? --NovaSTL 05:53, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

- Delete as per nom. It's a load of rubbish. The word does not exist in Australia. Maustrauser 13:41, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
