[edit] Strag

Minor term from a work of fiction, alibiet a very popular one. (Minor enough that I don't recall the term, and i have a good memory for such trivia, and yes I read the book, and listened to the radio shows.) I don't see this term as notable on its own, and i don't see any reason for this to be a separate page on wikipedia. Delete. DES (talk) 05:36, 19 September 2005 (UTC)

  • Redirect? Anthony Appleyard 06:41, 19 September 2005 (UTC)
    • I don't see a need for one. Is this a likely search term? DES (talk) 06:44, 19 September 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete - Very obscure term. If there's a list of words coined in the Guide, then this should be merged thereto. --193.166.11.251 07:33, 19 September 2005 (UTC)
  • Redirect to The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, for now, at least. I'd vote to delete (since this is not notable, and cannot possibly be expanded), but there appear to be precedents for redirection (see hoopy, frood). If there isn't a list of words coined in the Guide, then someone should probably start one. TheMadBaron 10:51, 19 September 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. I adore Adams and I've read the book(s) several times, but this is just cruft. / Peter Isotalo 13:54, 19 September 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep or merge with a list of terms from ther series, but don't delete. I know myself that I tend to search for some obscure stuff on WP time and again. I bet others do too.--Azathar 01:25, 21 September 2005 (UTC)
  • Merge with a list of terms from the series. --A bit iffy 13:41, 24 September 2005 (UTC)
