[edit] Petrocide

Not a respected or well-used term. No citations of secondary sources. No credible references without an NPOV dispute found through a quick google search. Msoron 04:27, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

• Agreement here. Delete away. --Sean Lotz 05:12, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
• Delete as per Msoron. It is terrible that it has existed since December 2004. -- Kjkolb 06:10, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
• Delete as dicdef. I can't see that being "respected or well-used" falls within any WP guideline or policy. Agree there seems to be little notability of the phrase with only 36 distinct Ghits. I would go as far as to argue the article should be deleted as a neologism, since none of the Google hits indicate anything beyond a made-up word to describe the abuses of Big Oil.

• Delete as an incorrect dicdef. Petrocide is the act of killing a rock. Duh. JIP | Talk 14:49, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
