[edit] Nukebidding

Nukebidding (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

Appears to be a neologism; I can't find any reference on Google outside Wikipedia and its mirrors. Nothing at all on Google Groups. Blorg 11:26, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

• Delete. Maybe the description is too vague, but isn't this just the already well-known practice of sniping? Certainly appears to be a protologism with no apparent usage outside of Wikipedia and mirrors. ~Matticus ^T_C 11:38, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
• Delete as neologism. JPD (talk) 12:37, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
• Delete - nn neologism. MER-C 13:15, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
• Delete - fully agree with the nominator. This term doesn't even exist outside of Wikipedia. Jayden54 14:21, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per nom. ← ANAS ^Talk? 16:40, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
• Delete - does not appear to be a term in general use and as noted by Matticus, article describes auction sniping.
• Speedy Delete. Was this in retaliation of losing a bid on eBay? Bearly541 23:26, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
• Superdelete, as not even a notable neologism. All article on google appear to be linking to WP; the guy may have may the term up. -Patstuart^talk|edits 13:57, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per nom. NeoJustin 22:24, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
• Speedy delete pointless. FirefoxMan 22:17, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
• Redirect to Auction sniping, which is the phrase usually used for the activity described in the article. No content worth salvaging. Tubezone 10:20, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

  Coment - do we really want to redirect for a term that doesn't exist? -Patstuart^talk|edits 16:20, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

  Comment Well, having a redirect might dissuade someone from trying to recreate the article. Also, I've seen the term used, although the person using it probably made it up off the cuff. Tubezone 08:47, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
