[edit] Replicator Art
This is a neologism. Google (I know, I know, not the end-all be-all, but bear with me) yields fewer than 200 hits, many of which seem to be related to port replicator art, which is apparently an unrelated computer term. (See that first hit to see what I'm talking about.) Delete.
This is all true, but what is wrong with being a Neologism? How does anything get into language? How do we evolve without starting something new? The largest and most successful broadsheet in Australia (I know, I know) thought it worthy of page 2. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Peter Lorax (talk • contribs)

- Delete WP is not a dictionary. If the neologism can be referenced in print then it could be transwikied to Wiktionary. (aeropagitica) 06:52, 16 March 2006 (UTC)
Alright we give in, point taken, say no more. Can it be transwikied to wiktionary? It appeared in a newspaper, does that count as print or does it have to be a book? And how do you do it? —This unsigned comment was added by Peter Lorax (talk • contribs) .
