[edit] Unniceness
Disputed prod (a few times) - procedural listing. The Rambling Man (talk) 17:12, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
- I am also nominating the following related page because it's essentially identical:
Delete.Delete all. The only source that turns up is UrbanDictionary.com and a few blogs. Hazillow (talk) 17:23, 26 February 2008 (UTC)- Delete Unless any RS pop up. --Dweller (talk) 17:27, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
- Delete per above and Wikipedia is not a dictionary. If the nominator agrees, I would also suggest adding Unnice to this AfD. Marasmusine (talk) 17:28, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
- Agreed yes, I hadn't noticed that. Thanks for the pointer. The Rambling Man (talk) 17:31, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
- Transwiki - belongs in Wiktionary, or delete if they don't want it either. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Matchups (talk • contribs) 17:34, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
- Comment presumably even Wiktionary want reliable sources beyond urban dictionary? The Rambling Man (talk) 17:36, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
- Delete I strongly suspect that the word was invented by the person that created these articles. WhatamIdoing (talk) 18:34, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
- Unkeep protologism which is used by very few people in the context it describes. Also note the creator has repeatedly taken the AfD notic off the pages and has been blocked for a short period for disruption. JuJube (talk) 19:48, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
- Strong delete. Dicdef of a neologism.--TBC!?! 20:42, 26 February 2008 (UT
This word was invented by a troll in Yahoo Answers who goes under over a dozen names. He asks questions constantly that try to put "normal" people in a bad light. He also created the entry in the urban dictionary. He has referred to both asking for people's opinions of them. Both are written in the same writing-style as his Yahoo Answers questions. (For confirmation of this do a search on Yahoo Answers on the word "unnice" and you will find that PeteandCl, Pastasauce88, Cheesecakefries, Bostongreenleaf, Sucker, Chilidogsteak, lemonaidjuiceii, jigganyc, royalsweethights, noreagared, cherrysodalime, No pity, Magixstick, N, and others all write very similar questions citing "normal" people as "unnice".)
I think the person who created the word has a mental health issue. No self-respecting person with a disability would use it. No self-respecting person with a disability would refer to people without disabilities as "normal". This "unword" needs to be removed in its entirety. I have edited the entry at least 5 times only to have my edits removed. Xuxan Xuxan (talk) 00:50, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
- Delete doubleplusungood sources suggesting not unmeaningful word--Rumping (talk) 18:11, 28 February 2008 (UTC)
- Delete Not an established concept, as concepts have higher requirements for verification than things in my opinion, not to say this has any though. Ansell 00:24, 1 March 2008 (UTC)
