[edit] Pit of voles

I speedied this as near-nonsense, but when going through the author's contribs I realized that it was a matter of a well-intentioned new user not knowing what is appropriate in Wikipedia, so I've restored it for VfD.

Chatty, unencyclopedic article on a neologism supposedly found on Fanfiction.net. — Gwalla | Talk 07:19, 10 Jun 2005 (UTC)

• Delete, neologism. --bainer (talk) 08:05, 10 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Delete and tell the user why it got deleted in a friendly fashion. Mgm|^(talk) 10:59, Jun 10, 2005 (UTC)
• I'd have to say Delete, as it's not in a proper style for an encyclopedia entry, and a slang expression for a particular site (even if it's actually in current use) probably isn't sufficiently notable for a separate entry. Right now, that phrase seems to be more of something that a few bloggers are trying to promote than a currently-widespread nickname for the site, but if it does get sufficiently common, then some mention of it in the main FanFiction.Net article might be warranted (but not a separate article). *Dan* 12:34, Jun 10, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete and help user understand Wikipedia policies. jglc | t | c 15:58, 10 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Not notable, quasi-neologism. -- BD2412 ^talk 19:56, 2005 Jun 10 (UTC)
• Redirect to fanfiction.net, no merge. It's a common (if derogatory) nickname. --Carnildo 21:19, 10 Jun 2005 (UTC)
