[edit] Wikireality

Non-notable neologism per WP:NEO, and just because it was invented by Stephen Colbert on cable television doesn't automatically mean its notable. My original prod was removed by page creator. hateless 00:06, 6 August 2006 (UTC)

• Delete by having a triple-sized herd of elephants stomp on it. NawlinWiki 00:12, 6 August 2006 (UTC)
• Delete as per nom. Non-encylopedic. Protologism with aim of abuse of Wikipedia but no evidence of wide usage Bwithh 00:15, 6 August 2006 (UTC)
• Delete unless it gets news stories written about it like Truthiness did, which doesn't seem too likely. Recury 00:55, 6 August 2006 (UTC)
• Delete never even heard the term used before Konman72 00:59, 6 August 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per nom. Plus, I watched the video, it's not even called "Wikireality", it's called something else. Kalani ^[talk] 01:06, 6 August 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. NEO. SynergeticMaggot 01:12, 6 August 2006 (UTC)

• Delete. And for the record, it was "Wikiality" - not "Wikireality". Czj 02:13, 6 August 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. Colbert didn't even use it: the word was "Wikiality" which already has a redirect in place to The Colbert Report. — Dark Shikari ^talk/_contribs 02:29, 6 August 2006 (UTC)
• Strong delete as a non-notable protologism and a failed attempt at Colbertcruft. --Coredesat talk. ^_^ 02:55, 6 August 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per the obvious VoiceOfReason 03:18, 6 August 2006 (UTC)
• Delete WP:COLBERT (I might just start it)...also a WP:NEO alphaChimp ^laudare 04:04, 6 August 2006 (UTC)
• Strong delete That wasn't even the word... Nick Catalano _contrib ^talk 04:14, 6 August 2006 (UTC)
• Comment While the outcome of this deletion is obvious, the closing admin may want to consider salting the article, as Colbert Report-related articles like this are likely to recieve a lot of traffic and probably be recreated. In any case, at least watching this deleted article by a few wikipedians is probably in order. The ikiroid (talk·desk·Advise me) 04:46, 6 August 2006 (UTC)
