[edit] Squarular
Did not speedily delete as a nonsense page. Looks like a not notable neologism to me. I found nothing on Google scholar or Google news. Google web search shows limited usage. My favorite is "I have a tendency to go off on people about how squarular should be a word until they get tired ." Then there is this bit of intellectual insight "Interestingly enough my honor students taught me the words squaricle and squarular (um, I think they're geometry terms...I don't teach math) today. (such is the state of education today.) Perhaps it's a new synonym for rectangle. Cheers, Dlohcierekim 18:43, 8 May 2008 (UTC) Dlohcierekim 18:43, 8 May 2008 (UTC)

- Delete. Although a bunch of people seem to be using it informally (to mean "square," "cubic," or "tiled"), it's still well within the purview of WP:NEO. Furthermore, there is no potential whatsoever for this article to be more than a dicdef. AnturiaethwrTalk 19:12, 8 May 2008 (UTC)
