[edit] Pamcake

• Dont delete!. The term Pamcake is an rising slang in High School conversations, mainly in the Houston Area. This page correctly identifies the accurate usage of such a term so that it will not see a quickened end due to incorrect usage. Furthermore, new ideas such as this should not be frowned upon because new ideas, however dumb at first, is essential in the continuation of our social legacy. --User:Cheney (actually 68.92.196.52 04:39, 2005 Apr 22 according to history Uncle G 16:00, 2005 Apr 22 (UTC))

  • So every neologism is allowed to have a page? Come on. This is not worthy of an article. --Durin 04:48, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC)

• Delete dicdef neologisms. Simple definitions of words should not be put in an encyclopedia. Read WP:WIN Mgm|^(talk) 08:35, Apr 22, 2005 (UTC)
• Strong delete. This could serve as a textbook example of a trivial fancruft article. — JIP | Talk 09:13, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, redirect to Meet the Parents (movie) as a character therein. Radiant_* 12:45, Apr 22, 2005 (UTC)
• The schoolchildren aiming to get their made-up word into the dictionary have once again missed, and hit the encyclopaedia instead. (They've also hit the dictionary. Wiktionary:pamcake is up for deletion right now.) A quick search reveals that several other people have, from time to time, made up this word, although apparently not seriously. (One web site makes the flimsy claim, based solely upon a picture, that Pamela Anderson is going into competition with IHOP.) It also reveals that a lot of people have mis-spelled pancake. No such word. Therefore no such concept/person/place/thing to warrant an encyclopaedia article by this title. Redirect either as per Radiant! or to pancake. Uncle G 16:00, 2005 Apr 22 (UTC)
• Delete. Could be a redirect to pancake as a typo. --TenOfAllTrades (talk/contrib) 18:04, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Delete as a neologism dicdef. --Carnildo 20:31, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC)

• Delete as pamcakes with sockpuppet syrup. Can we vote over at Wiktionary, I wonder? -Lucky 6.9 21:43, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  • Oops...no need. They speedied it. - Lucky 6.9 21:44, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Delete this sock-supported neologism. Jonathunder 01:14, 2005 Apr 23 (UTC)
• redirect it to pancake then Yuckfoo 00:44, 26 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Delete: Sorry Cheney, but it really doesn't belong in Wikipedia. I put it in Urban Dictionary though. Also, you didn't even mention who the starcraft player is (i don't even know) and in general your entry was horrible - Yan
