This article is WP:OR and is also a Protologism Mal 04:17, 16 May 2006 (UTC)

• I can find sparse usage of the term on the internet, but at best this is a transwiki to Wiktionary, I think. Aplomado ^talk 04:30, 16 May 2006 (UTC)
• Redirect to English people or something similar. - Richardcavell 05:22, 16 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment Presumably the reason for coining a term such as "UKonian" is that "English people" is totally inaccurate for this purpose. --Ryano 10:01, 16 May 2006 (UTC)
    • Which makes no sense considering the perfectly legitimate "British" term exists. *shrugs* --Mal 06:27, 17 May 2006 (UTC)

• Delete as unreferenced, unsourced proto/neologism. If references and a citation of usage in popular media can be provided then it can be transwikied to Wiktionary.  (aeropagitica)  (talk)  05:43, 16 May 2006 (UTC)
• Delete protologism and WP:NOT for those and not a dictionary either. UKanian is much more common, but even that would only be a dicdef. Angus McLellan (Talk) 08:54, 16 May 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per WP:NEO and WP:NOT a dictionary. I'm British and I've never heard the term before Ydam 12:03, 16 May 2006 (UTC).
